The importance of microhabitat for biodiversity sampling.
PLoS ONE, 2014 Responses to microhabitat are often neglected when ecologists sample animal indicator groups. Microhabitats may be particularly influential in non-passive biodiversity sampling methods, such as baited traps or light traps, and for certain taxonomic ...

Microhabitat Variability in Human Evolution [PDF]
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Climate variability and hominin evolution are inextricably linked. Yet, hypotheses examining the impact of large-scale climate shifts on hominin landscape ecology are often constrained by proxy data coming from off-site lake and ocean cores and temporal offsets between paleoenvironmental and archaeological records. Additionally, landscape response data

Selfies of imperial cormorants (Phalacrocorax atriceps): What is happening underwater? [PDF]
, 2015 During the last few years, the development of animal-borne still cameras and video recorders has enabled researchers to observe what a wild animal sees in the field.

Is scuba sampling a relevant method to study microhabitat in lakes? Examples and comparisons for three European species [PDF]
, 2001 We compared fish microhabitat use patterns in the littoral zone of a lake using a new direct method (i.e. Point Abundance Sampling by Scuba, PASS) and the widely used Point Abundance Sampling by Electrofishing technique (PASE).

Microhabitat diversity of Svalbard Bryozoa [PDF]
Journal of Natural History, 2005 Bryozoans are one of the major macrofaunal groups of the high polar regions. Here we present data on the nature of bryozoan assemblages in the Svalbard Archipelago sampled over 6 years between 1997 and 2002. Samples were collected with use of Van Veen grab, dredge and Scuba diving at depths ranging from 0 to 268 m.

Breeding Microhabitat Patterns among Sympatric Tropical Larids
Marine Ornithology, 2023 The selection of breeding microhabitat (nesting sites) affects successful reproduction in seabirds, yet the process of nesting-site selection in sympatric tropical species remains poorly known. During the 2021 breeding season, we assessed nesting-site selection among five larid species at three cays of Cuba and quantified explanatory variables.

Microorganisms, 2020 The elemental (C/N) and stable isotopic (δ13C, δ15N) compositions and compound-specific δ15N values of amino acids (δ15NAA) were evaluated for coral holobionts as diagnostic tools to detect spatiotemporal environmental heterogeneity and its effects on ...

Associations of Fire Ant Phorids and Microhabitats [PDF]
Environmental Entomology, 2007 We examined flight activity patterns for a guild of fire ant parasitoids in western Argentina in relationship to their host's location (mound/foraging trail) and light condition (full sun/partial sun/full shade) at different scales, from the individually sampled mound to the full day's summation for each species.
