Communications BiologyHibernation is a necessary means for animals to maintain survival while coping with low temperatures and food shortages. While most studies have largely focused on mammalian hibernation, its reptilian equivalent has been less studied. In order to provide

Wintering Conditions and Heat Loss during Hibernation in the Brown Long-Eared Bat
Applied SciencesThe aim of this study was to estimate heat loss in the brown long-eared bat during hibernation depending on the refugioclimate conditions. The measured values of refugioclimate parameters were: ambient temperature (Ta) 3–10 °C, relative humidity (Rh) 74 ...

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Black‐tailed prairie dogs are highly social ground squirrels that excavate communal burrow systems, most often in medium‐textured soils. Their forelimbs demonstrate morphofunctional trade‐offs for scratch‐digging and terrestrial ecology, including well‐developed and fast‐contracting proximal musculature with large mechanical advantage paired with ...

A family of ribosome hibernation factors widespread in Archaea
Nature CommunicationsRibosome hibernation preserves translation machinery during stress, yet its mechanisms in Archaea remain poorly defined. Using cryo-EM analysis, we studied hibernation pathways in Pyrococcus abyssi stressed cells.

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.In this article, we show that ground burrows influenced reptile populations inconsistently across both the 5‐year field study in the Kiskunság and the broader systematic review, which together revealed positive, negative, and neutral effects across species and habitat types.

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.Here, we evaluated the ecological value of bird detections obtained opportunistically from camera traps by comparing them with standardized point count surveys conducted in 2023–2024, across the metropolitan area of Firenze, central Italy, and explored their potential to indicate broader urban biodiversity patterns through cross‐taxa relationships with

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The regulation of business is increasingly characterized by “soft” governance regimes that blur the boundaries of public and private authority, as signaled by the rapid proliferation of multistakeholder initiatives in global governance. This article explores how the spread of multistakeholderism creates opportunities for new forms of strategic

Finding Dr Florence Buchanan: The recovered face and fuller life story of a scientific legend
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Dr Florence Buchanan (1867–1931) was one of physiology's foundational women. Trained as a zoologist at University College London (UCL), she became an exacting physiologist whose studies of muscle bioelectricity, reflexes, cardiac rhythm and exercise helped shape twentieth‐century physiology.
