Chinese Pangolin Changes Local Vertebrate Assemblages and Contributes to Their Interspecific Interactions by Burrowing and Revisitation

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
In this study, we systematically analyzed the utilization patterns of Chinese pangolin burrows by sympatric species in Guangdong Province, China, including differences in species composition using burrow mounds and burrow tunnels. We found that repeated visits to burrows by Chinese pangolin promoted the use of burrows by sympatric species, suggesting ...

Ecophysiology of an Avian Invader: Body Condition and Metabolic Rate Adjustments to Ambient Temperature

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study examines the ecophysiological responses of common waxbills to temperature variation in Portugal. We measured body condition and basal metabolic rate (BMR) during summer and winter across two regions in Portugal. Body condition was negatively correlated with temperature, while the relationship between BMR and temperature varied seasonally. In

Habitat Features, Coyotes, and Humans Drive Diel Activity Variation Among Sympatric Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that multiple mammal species show considerable variation in diel activity in response to several factors, with biotic variables (habitat features and the presence of coyotes Canis latrans) having the strongest overall effects. Our results have important implications for trophic dynamics. Future studies will need to account for these underlying

Prenatal Environmental Hypoxia Enhances Adult Hypoxia Tolerance in Brandt's Voles (Lasiopodomys brandtii): Behavioral and Transcriptomic Insights

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Prenatal hypoxia enhances adult hypoxia tolerance in Brandt's voles, preserving cognitive and memory functions. Transcriptomic analysis reveals adaptive changes in energy metabolism, oxygen transport, and neuroprotective mechanisms, highlighting developmental plasticity.

Asymmetric Platform Oligopoly

open access: yesThe RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a tractable model of asymmetric platform oligopoly with logit demand in which users from two distinct groups are subject to within‐group and cross‐group network effects and decide which platform to join. We characterize the equilibrium when platforms manage user access by setting participation fees for each user group.
