Scientific ReportsCircadian rhythms play an important role in many physiological processes. We have previously reported that no periodic fluctuation in the Bmal1 mRNA is observed in the liver of the chipmunk, a mammalian hibernator, in the hibernation season, suggesting ...

Serum immune-related proteins are differentially expressed during hibernation in the American black bear. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Hibernation is an adaptation to conserve energy in the face of extreme environmental conditions and low food availability that has risen in several animal phyla.

Living on the edge: Habitat characteristics of northern myotis at the periphery of its distribution
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Northern myotis selected tall trees with minimal decay, in patches with other roosting options. In our study area, these trees occurred in narrow bands within an agricultural matrix, differing from contiguous forest at the core of the species' distribution. Nevertheless, bats selected the tallest trees in the densest patches available.

Historical data reveal earlier flowering under environmental change
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Global temperatures have risen ~ 1.1°C since the 1800s and the mean annual air temperature in the Arctic has increased by nearly four times the global average. Temperature has a significant effect on fundamental life‐cycle events of flora and fauna. With temperatures increasing, Arctic plants are expected to shift their active periods accordingly, with

Pest 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 ...

Heliyon, 2021 The aim of this study was to determine optimal body mass/length ratios of Emys orbicularis before hibernation. We obtained 213 measurements of wild-caught and captive-bred turtles during 9 years (2011–2019) and determined regression curves that show ...

Pest 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.

, 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 ...
