The Role of Campus as an Urban Multiuse Protected Area in Bird Nocturnal Roosting Habitat Function
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.Campus green spaces are essential for providing critical nocturnal habitats, playing a key role in supporting urban bird species in fragmented environments. Seasonal variations significantly influence nocturnal bird roosting site selection, with birds adapting their roosting patterns to changing environmental conditions throughout the year.

Syntax in animal communication: its study in songbirds and other taxa
Journal of Avian BiologyMany building blocks of human language can be found within the vocal communication systems of other species, most notably songbirds. One of the most prominent of these building blocks is syntax.

Honest signaling and oxidative stress: the special case of avian acoustic communication
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Much research on animal communication has addressed how costs or constraints determined by the oxidative status of an individual can assure the honesty of visual signals, such as sexually selected color ornaments. However, acoustic communication has been

Sleep, Learning, and Birdsong [PDF]
ILAR Journal, 2010 Neuroethological research combines approaches derived from animal behavior and neurobiology to examine the neuronal mechanisms of behavior, often in the context of laboratory experiments on species chosen for particular adaptations. Typically, these species are not traditional laboratory animals yet they contribute greatly to a broad, evolutionarily ...

Computer Simulation of Musical Evolution: A Lesson from Whales [PDF]
, 2015 Simulating musical creativity using computers needs more than the ability to devise elegant computational implementations of sophisticated algorithms. It requires, firstly, an understanding of what phenomena might be regarded as music; and, secondly, an ...

Computerized Schedule Effectiveness Technique /SET/ determines present and future schedule position [PDF]
, 1967 Computerized scheduling system calculates an index of overall schedule-effectiveness. The schedule-effectiveness index is a measurement of actual overall performance against the existing schedule, and a series of schedule-effectiveness values indicates ...
