Hibernation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hibernacija je fiziološki fenomen razvijen kao prilagodba homeotermnih organizama na zimske uvjete niske okolišne temperature i manjka hrane. Hibernirajuće životinje pribjegavaju kontoliranoj hipotermiji, što im omogućava sniženje stope metabolizma u ...

Myocardial Hibernation in Patients with Arterial Hypertension and Ischemic Heart Disease as a Cause of Heart Failure

open access: yes, 2013
Introduction. Myocardial hibernation refers to “new ischemic syndromes,” which in recent years have increasingly attracted the attention of cardiologists and cardiac surgeons.

Defining the pollinator garden: is conceptual flexibility a feature or a bug?

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Ecologists often aim to reduce conceptual ambiguity by attempting to create rigid shared lexicons. These efforts imply that ambiguity is undesirable. In some contexts, however, conceptual flexibility comes with under‐discussed benefits. Here, we use the lens of pollinator gardening to explore how conceptual flexibility is built into participatory ...

Disentangling Temporal and Environmental Effects on Hematological Values in Prairie Rattlesnakes (Crotalus viridis)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hematologic assessment is a common clinical tool used to characterize both individual and population health. In ectothermic organisms, the hematologic response is influenced by external factors such as temperature and season, especially in temperate species. Yet, specific environmental effects have received little direct attention.

Community composition, abundance and activity‐density of carabids and staphylinids depend on prey abundance and adjacent habitat even in diverse agricultural landscapes

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Carabid and staphylinid communities are shaped by adjacent habitat type, prey availability and landscape context, influencing natural pest control across agricultural landscapes. Abstract BACKGROUND The functioning of agroecosystems depends on key ecosystem processes that deliver ecosystem services, yet agricultural management has increasingly shifted ...

Hibernation Sites and Activity of Bats During Winter

open access: yes, 2023
In the temperate region, bats have evolved the strategy of hibernation to survive the harsh winter. During hibernation, bats enter the vulnerable state of torpor that requires specific environmental conditions to function optimally. Bats are known to use

Differential AMPK-mediated metabolic regulation observed in hibernation-style polymorphisms in Siberian chipmunks

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Hibernation is a unique physiological phenomenon allowing extreme hypothermia in endothermic mammals. Hypometabolism and hypothermia tolerance in hibernating animals have been investigated with particular interest; recently, studies of cultured cells and

Microbicidal ability across the hibernation period.

open access: yes, 2013
Microbicidal ability, expressed as percent microbe killed, against E. coli (A) and S. aureus (B) in blood plasma collected from little brown myotis hibernating in the affected Aeolus Cave during the 2008–2009 hibernation period.

Hibernation in bears : Relations with reproduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
クマ類の冬眠は,体温の降下度が小さい,中途覚醒がない,筋肉や骨の退行がない,インスリン抵抗性になる,などの特徴を有する.オスでは,冬眠中(2~3月)に精子形成が再開し,メスよりも早く冬眠から覚める.メスは,初夏の交尾後に着床遅延を維持するが,冬眠導入期(11月下旬~12月上旬)に着床する.その後約2ヶ月で胎子発育を完了し,冬眠中間期の1月下旬~2月上旬に出産する.さらに冬眠後半期に新生子を哺育するが,母グマのみ冬眠を継続する.ヒグマやツキノワグマと違ってホッキョクグマでは,メスだけが出産 ...

The European honey buzzard (Pernis apivorus) as an ally for the control of the invasive yellow‐legged hornet (Vespa velutina nigrithorax)

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2237-2247, April 2025.
The predatory effect of the honey‐buzzard affects the reproductive performance of Asian‐hornet colonies, decreasing the density of workers over distance and time. The foraging distances of the honey‐buzzard concentrates within the first 2000 m from nest, which supports the results observed.
