Vortex phase matching as a strategy for schooling in robots and in fish
Whether and how fish might benefit from swimming in schools is an ongoing intriguing debate. Li et al. conduct experiments with biomimetic robots and also with real fish to reveal a new behavioural strategy by which followers can exploit the vortices ...

Fluctuation spectra of large random dynamical systems reveal hidden structure in ecological networks
Fluctuations in ecosystems and other large dynamical systems are driven by intrinsic and extrinsic noise and contain hidden information which is difficult to extract.

Physiological reactivity to acute mental stress in essential hypertension—a systematic review
ObjectiveExaggerated physiological reactions to acute mental stress (AMS) are associated with hypertension (development) and have been proposed to play an important role in mediating the cardiovascular disease risk with hypertension. A variety of studies

Individuals show consistent between-individual behavioural variation when they interact with conspecifics or heterospecifics. Such patterns might underlie emergent group-specific behavioural patterns and between-group behavioural differences.

The performance of field sampling for parasite detection in a wild passerine
Parasites can impact the behavior of animals and alter the interplay with ecological factors in their environment. Studying the effects that parasites have on animals thus requires accurate estimates of infections in individuals.

A large proportion of animal species enjoy the benefits of being active at night, and have evolved the corresponding optical and neural adaptations to cope with the challenges of low light intensities. However, over the past century electric lighting has

Risk and retribution: how punishment uncertainty weakens norms of cooperationRisk and retribution: how punishment uncertainty weakens norms of cooperation [PDF]
Punishment can sustain cooperation, but in real-world settings, sanctions are often inconsistently applied. We tested how punishment uncertainty affects cooperation when individuals can choose between institutions with predictable or unpredictable ...

The principles of collective animal behaviour [PDF]
In recent years, the concept of self-organization has been used to understand collective behaviour of animals. The central tenet of self-organization is that simple repeated interactions between individuals can produce complex adaptive patterns at the level of the group.

Motion behaviour recognition dataset collected from human perception of collective motion behaviour
Collective motion behaviour such as the movement of swarming bees, flocking birds or schooling fish has inspired computer-based swarming systems. They are widely used in agent formation control, including aerial and ground vehicles, teams of rescue robots, and exploration of dangerous environments with groups of robots.
