Integrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 6, Page 1121-1134, November 2024.Bat communities along a natural gradient of temperature and precipitation in pine forests were studied. Bat communities showed phylogenetic and trait clustering. These communities are shaped by climate conditions and forest vegetation composition. The field and the modeling approach can be extended to other taxa and environments to predict species ...

Predicting financial markets with Google Trends and not so random keywords
, 2013 We check the claims that data from Google Trends contain enough data to predict future financial index returns. We first discuss the many subtle (and less subtle) biases that may affect the backtest of a trading strategy, particularly when based on such ...

Trade‐offs in habitat use and occupancy of bats across the gradient of urbanization and seasons
Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2024.Abstract Urbanization that occurs across a gradient from low‐ to high‐density development, is a primary driver of landscape change that can affect biodiversity. Animals balance trade‐offs in obtaining resources and avoiding anthropogenic disturbances across the gradient of urbanization to maximize their fitness.

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, Page 868-885, May 2024.Abstract Quantification of phenological patterns (e.g. migration, hibernation or reproduction) should involve statistical assessments of non‐uniform temporal patterns. Circular statistics (e.g. Rayleigh test or Hermans‐Rasson test) provide useful approaches for doing so based on the number of individuals that exhibit particular activities during a ...
