Emerging Network-Based Tools in Movement Ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
New technologies have vastly increased the available data on animal movement and behaviour. Consequently, new methods deciphering the spatial and temporal interactions between individuals and their environments are vital.

The importance of including habitat-specific behaviour in models of butterfly movement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Dispersal is a key process affecting population persistence and major factors affecting dispersal rates are the amounts, connectedness and properties of habitats in landscapes.

Using participatory scenario planning to explore the synergies and trade‐offs from upland treescape expansion

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The future of land use in the UK uplands is highly debated, with growing interest in increasing tree cover and other land use changes, alongside a desire to maintain traditional land use patterns and practices. Treescape expansion is likely to result in synergies and trade‐offs between different outcomes, so integrating stakeholder preferences

Dispersal of _Aedes aegypti_: field study in temperate areas and statistical approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We studied the dispersion of _Aedes aegypti_ during egg laying in natural conditions. Two independent experiments involving mosquitoes dispersing from urbanization towards adjacent un-urbanized areas were carried out and analyzed in statistical terms. We

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.

Experimental Manipulation of Dispersal Ability in A Neotropical Butterfly Anartia fatima (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

open access: yesInsects, 2018
Research on endangered British butterflies has found that butterfly populations in small refuges evolve to allocate more mass to the thorax (flight muscle) and less to the abdomen than populations in large refuges.

Laboratory evaluation of stable isotope labeling of Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) for adult dispersal studies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundStable isotope labeling is a promising method for use in insect mark-capture and dispersal studies. Culicoides biting midges, which transmit several important animal pathogens, including bluetongue virus (BTV) and epizootic hemorrhagic disease ...

Blinking Optical Tweezers for Atom Rearrangements

open access: yesAdvanced Quantum Technologies, EarlyView.
The work introduces an energy‐efficient method for holding and rearranging an N ×$\times$ M array of atoms using only N optical tweezers, using just 1M of the optical power per atom. In the proof‐of‐concept experiments, single blinking tweezer holds M = 9 atoms and further facilitates rearrangement M = 4 ∼$\sim$ 5 atoms in various configurations ...

Unusual behaviour of an immature loggerhead turtle released in the Alboran Sea [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2010
A juvenile loggerhead turtle with buoyancy problems was captured in the Alboran Sea (Mediterranean Sea, south of Spain) and released 14 months later after healing.
