So close yet so far: Movement patterns of livestock guarding dogs in a shared landscape in Romania

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
We used GPS collars to track 36 livestock guarding dogs (LGDs) from 11 sheep flocks in the Romanian Carpathians to assess how closely they remained with their sheep and how often they roamed in a landscape shared with people and large carnivores. Overall, LGDs were attentive, typically staying within 100 m of sheep at night and 200 m during the day ...

Beyond Circannual Fattening: Behavioural Flexibility and Sex‐Specific Strategies Enable Coping With High‐Elevation Winters

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Winter at high elevations challenges resident species such as the White‐winged Snowfinch. Circannual‐regulated fat accumulation, along with flexible and sex‐specific movement strategies, likely play a critical role in coping with cold temperatures and unpredictable food, but may be vulnerable to climate change.

Why Size Does Not Matter: Sex Driven Home Range Differences in Brown Bears

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This is a novel anlaysis of unique dataset never find anywhere more than 60 collared free ranging brown bears movement data. ABSTRACT Sex, body size and environmental conditions are key determinants of home range size in large mammals, yet their relative importance within populations remains unclear for many wide‐ranging carnivores such as brown bears.

Mechanistic insight into proton-coupled mixed valency [PDF]

, 2016
Stabilisation of the mixed-valence state in [Mo2(TiPB)3(HDOP)]2+ (HTiPB = 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoic acid, H2DOP = 3,6-dihydroxypyridazine) by electron transfer (ET) is related to the proton coordinate of the bridging ligands.

A cross‐site comparison reveals limited geographic variation in risk avoidance of snowshoe hares

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Predation risk induces a myriad of behavioral antipredator responses of prey. However, different antipredator behaviors exhibit different degrees of flexibility within a single prey species. Moreover, how predator species composition and traits interact with the flexibility of particular antipredator behaviors to determine spatiotemporal ...

Quantification of the Accuracy of Low Priced GPS Receivers for Crash Location

, 2010
Global positioning system (GPS) has been identified as a potential tool for capturing crash location data. This study quantifies factors that could affect the accuracy of GPS receivers. The results showed that GPS receiver orientation, site obstructions,

GeoNav: Enhancing field phenotyping with high‐precision global navigation systems integration in the Field Book mobile application

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Field data collection is a key activity in plant breeding, underpinning efforts to develop crop varieties with improved yields, disease resistance, and climate adaptability. Accurately associating data with the correct field plots is critical for selection and genetic improvement but can be challenging, especially in large experiments.

Territorial birds of prey adjust their flight behaviour over the course of the breeding season depending on their breeding success

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.
Flight plays a central role in the life histories of birds but is extremely energy demanding. Reproduction is also associated with high energy demands. We might thus expect to see differences in movement behaviour between individuals that breed successfully, those that breed unsuccessfully, and those that do not breed, assuming that individuals adapt ...

A case report assessing the utility of a low-cost tracking GPS device for monitoring terrestrial mammal movements

Animal Biotelemetry, 2023
Background Accurate data on animal movements can highlight behavioural and ecological issues, such as territorial interactions, barriers to migration patterns, including compromised movement corridors, or avoidance of deteriorating habitats, and disease ...

Archipelagic Habitat Use by the Black Wood Pigeon

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, March 2026.
Satellite tracking of Black Wood Pigeons in the Izu Islands (2022–2025) revealed frequent interisland movements, with flights ranging from 4 to 170 km. Many individuals dispersed among islands after breeding and returned the following spring, indicating partial migratory or nomadic behavior at the archipelagic scale.
