Annali Online dell'Università di Ferrara. Sezione Lettere, 2012 The second half of the fifth century B.C. was a revolutionary time for developments in music. The Birds, the comedy in which Aristophanes most radically experiments with novel musical techniques, provides clear evidence for the formation of a ‘new music’.

Past research and future directions in understanding how birds use their sense of smell
Ibis, Volume 167, Issue 4, Page 853-881, October 2025.Our understanding of the functional importance of olfaction to birds has improved over the past 60 years, largely as the result of experimental studies testing how birds use their sense of smell in different contexts. As it is impossible to measure directly which odours birds can detect, we rely on measuring behavioural responses to scent cues or ...

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 5, September 2025.Many birds schedule their activity to a specific phase of the diel (24‐h) light–dark cycle. Two notable exceptions are the nocturnal migration of many otherwise diurnal songbirds and the diverse activity patterns of birds during the continuous light above the Polar Circles during summer.

Volatiles of symbiotic bacterial origin explain ectoparasitism and fledging success of hoopoes
Animal MicrobiomeBackground Some parasites use olfactory cues to detect their hosts and, since bacterial symbionts are partially responsible for animal odours, they could influence host parasitism.

New Hoopoe Heuristic Optimization
CoRR, 2012 Most optimization problems in real life applications are often highly nonlinear. Local optimization algorithms do not give the desired performance. So, only global optimization algorithms should be used to obtain optimal solutions. This paper introduces a new nature-inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm, called Hoopoe Heuristic (HH).
