Behavioural responses of a gamebird to human encounters across the hunting season

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
We examined the behavioural adaptation of rock ptarmigan Lagopus muta in response to human encounters across the hunting season. We conducted disturbance experiments in two different parts of the species' range, in subarctic (Iceland) and in alpine (Italy) habitats.

Passive acoustic monitoring with AI‐based detection and identification reveal sooty grouse hooting patterns in western Oregon

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many bird species are monitored using auditory point count surveys during the breeding season. Autonomous recording units (ARUs) can be used to better understand the daily and seasonal timing of when a species is vocalizing, which can help align surveys with the time period when the maximum number of individuals are present. We used ARUs to improve our

NEOntometrics - A Public Endpoint for Calculating Ontology Metrics [PDF]

Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge
Ontologies are the cornerstone of the semantic web and knowledge graphs. They are available from various sources, come in many shapes and sizes, and differ widely in attributes like expressivity, degree of interconnection, or the number of individuals ...

Delisting the Northern Rocky Mountain gray wolf from the US Endangered Species Act: an assessment of political discourse over 20 years

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Feared, revered, and politicized, wolves have long captured human imagination, and ignited fierce conservation conflicts. In the United States, the Endangered Species Act protects species at risk of extinction from human impacts. This far‐reaching legislation, which impacts development and state‐level wildlife management, has been fraught with legal ...

Whelk: An OWL EL+RL Reasoner Enabling New Use Cases [PDF]

Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge
Many tasks in the biosciences rely on reasoning with large OWL terminologies (Tboxes), often combined with even larger databases. In particular, a common task is retrieval queries that utilize relational expressions; for example, “find all genes ...

Parental care and bird embryonic metabolism: A comparison between uniparentally incubating Silver‐throated Tits and biparentally incubating Black‐throated Tits

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Studies have shown that organisms may adjust metabolic rates in response to thermal variability, highlighting metabolic plasticity as a key adaptive mechanism. Understanding the extent of metabolic plasticity of an organism is key to predicting its adaptation to climate

Horned-OWL: Flying Further and Faster with Ontologies [PDF]

Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge
Horned-OWL is a library implementing the OWL2 specification in the Rust language. As a library, it is aimed at processes and manipulation of ontologies, rather than supporting GUI development; this is reflected heavily in its design, which is for ...

Habitat imprinting in breeding territory selection of a long‐lived bird of prey

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
A unique long‐term dataset has allowed this study of an important habitat selection mechanism, habitat imprinting, in a species which is typically extremely challenging to study. It gives us better understanding of the role of early experience in selection of breeding sites in long‐lived species with high breeding site fidelity.

Social information about others' affective states in a human‐altered world

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Faced with anthropogenic change, animals now encounter challenges different from their evolutionary past. To cope with such challenges, animals may use social information about others' affective states to guide their decisions. Considering affective states of wild animals could have important implications for animal welfare and wildlife conservation ...
