Visual Cues Can Alter the Behavioural Responses of Dragonfly Larvae to Chemical Alarm Cues

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
Using a controlled experimental approach, we examined how chemical and visual cues influence antipredator behaviour in Aeshna cyanea larvae and tested whether risk‐related information can be socially transmitted among nearby conspecifics. Our results show that dragonfly larvae do not copy the antipredator responses of others, but visual cues alter how ...

Fisheries Managers Acknowledge the Importance of Adaptive Traits but Report Limited Ability to Influence Them

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine fishery management systems are experiencing unprecedented pressure from climate change. Prior research has identified adaptive traits that, when present in a management system, can promote effective responses to these changes and minimise negative outcomes for fish and fishery systems. Understanding the extent to which managers identify

“I Stayed, Because… I Needed to Have a Plan”: Nigerian Migrant Women's Experiences of Gender‐Based Violence, Resilience and Resistance

open access: yesThe Howard Journal of Crime and Justice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article critiques gendered, cultural and racial stereotypes of Nigerian migrant women as passive victims of intimate partner violence (IPV) in the United Kingdom. Based on 14 semi‐structured interviews, it reveals how spouse visa restrictions limit access to welfare and constrain women's ability to escape abuse.

Organizational Fairness Perceptions, Employee Representation, and Firm Performance

open access: yesIndustrial Relations: A Journal of Economy and Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From a theoretical perspective, employees' fairness perceptions play a vital role in explaining the effect of employee representation on individual and firm‐level outcomes. However, the fairness argument has not been scrutinized in empirical studies yet. Using German longitudinal linked employer‐employee data, we show that particularly central

Feeding ecology of an Amazonian electric knifefish under altered flood‐pulse dynamics caused by hydroelectric damming

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the effects of the controlled flood pulse on diet composition, trophic niche breadth and feeding intensity of Archolaemus janeae, an electric knifefish species with a restricted distribution in the Amazon Basin. Monthly samples were collected from December 2020 to November 2021 in the Volta Grande stretch of the Xingu ...

Effects of gill and muscle biopsies on the short‐term behaviour, exercise performance and survival of juvenile lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Non‐lethal biopsy is a valuable tool for gaining insight into the physiological status of fish in the wild and for predicting their subsequent behaviour and survival. However, linking the insights from biopsy to post‐release behaviour relies on the assumption that the biopsy itself has no meaningful impact on post‐release behaviour or survival

Optimising Sleep Stage Detection Using a Minimal Non‐EEG Physiological Signal Set and Deep Learning

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Automatic sleep stage classification is essential for enabling non‐invasive, at‐home monitoring. However, current methods often rely on electroencephalogram (EEG) signals and ad‐hoc development approaches that limit reproducibility. We present a reproducible engineering framework for a deep learning model based on the U‐Net architecture that ...
