Body surface temperatures as biomarkers of physiological environmental adaptation in wild birds and mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ability of individuals to cope with their environment, and therefore the likelihood that they survive and pass on their genes (i.e. fitness), is largely determined by physiological state. Tracking physiological state in wild animals, however, is challenging.

The hearing capabilities of the Dromornithidae (Aves), with inferences on acoustic communication and ecology

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The preservation of bony structures which enclose the hearing organs (ECD) provide a basis for interpreting the hearing capabilities of the extinct, flightless Dromornithidae (Aves). Although the length of the dromornithid ECD was especially short, relative to basicranial length, it conformed to the negative allometric scaling relationships observed in

Determining population trends and conservation status of the common quail (Coturnix coturnix) in Western Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we review the conservation status and population trends of the common quail (Coturnix coturnix) from 1900 to the present. Data are sometimes contradictory with regard to the status of this species as it has some features that make it ...

Pathobiology and transmission of highly and low pathogenic avian influenza viruses in European quail (Coturnix c. coturnix) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
European quail (Coturnix c. coturnix) may share with Japanese quail (Coturnix c. japonica) its potential as an intermediate host and reservoir of avian influenza viruses (AIV).

No Evidence That Life History Strategies Shape Within‐Body Mosaics of Ageing

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tissues across the body may age at different rates, which creates within‐body mosaic ageing. Life history strategies shape ageing patterns at the inter‐ and intra‐specific level, but the impact of life history strategies on mosaic‐ageing patterns within individuals remains unknown.

Are biologically meaningful effect sizes a factor in study design? A systematic review of translational chronic variable stress studies

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The design of in vivo studies using laboratory animals is normally guided by the 3Rs: Replacement, Reduction and Refinement. The concept of Reduction is particularly important in the context of estimating sample size; the selected sample size should allow the detection of a predetermined effect size using appropriate statistical tests, but not
