A Global Comparison of Common Approaches for Tracing Carnivore Diet
Many researchers are faced with the decision of how to quantify terrestrial carnivore diets. By synthesising studies that compared multiple approaches, we show that each approach has strengths and weaknesses, both for dietary inference and across other dimensions that researchers should consider.

Small understory trees increase growth following sustained drought in the Amazon
Summary Droughts pose a major threat to the Amazon rainforest, yet the mechanisms enabling trees to maintain growth under prolonged drought remain poorly understood, particularly in the understory layer. We leveraged a 22‐yr Throughfall Exclusion (TFE) in a 1‐ha plot in eastern Amazonia, paired with a Control plot, to test whether small understory ...

Recent work on non‐human animal vocalizations has offered new insights into rhythmicity. In an attempt to improve upon methods commonly used in animal rhythm research, we investigated the rhythmic structure of budgerigar song. Our proposed statistical approach showed rhythmicity in human music but not language, and uncovered non‐random structured ...

Abstract High‐resolution movement data from Cuvier's beaked, or goose‐beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris, hereafter Ziphius, n = 8) tag deployments (4.1–19.2 days) were used to estimate blood and tissue O2 and CO2 levels. Acceleration and magnetometry data were used to estimate the locomotion cost (LC) from the relationship between activity and the O2 ...

ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of geological, marine and anthropogenic sources on metal and metalloid concentrations in the forefields of four glaciers (Ecology, Sphinx, Tower and Windy) on King George Island, Antarctic. Water samples were collected at the beginning and end of the hydrological season (austral summer, December 2021 to February ...
