Architecture Characteristics of Burrow System of Plateau Pika, Ochotona curzoniae
Pakistan Journal of Zoology, 2018 Burrows serve many functions for animals by providing a place for rearing young, sleeping, hibernation, food storage, protection from predators and extreme environment, and the function of burrows varies with the degree of burrow complexity. We studied the burrow architecture (length, internal dimensions, fractal dimension of tunnel systems, number of ...

New biostratigraphical data for the Burdigalian Montchaibeux Member at the locality Courrendlin-Solé (Canton of Jura, Switzerland) [PDF]
, 2017 Geological surveys were carried out in the Miocene deposits at the place known as “En Solé” east of the village Courrendlin (Delémont Basin, Canton of Jura, Switzerland). This resulted in the discovery of new Miocene small mammal assemblages.

Bare Patches Created by Plateau Pikas Contribute to Warming Permafrost on the Tibet Plateau
Geophysical Research LettersAbstractPlateau pikas, small mammals native to the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP), create bare patches through burrowing. No previous assessment exists on their impact on permafrost. This study fills this gap by simulating hypothetical scenarios in the Three Rivers Headwaters Region of the QTP using the Noah‐MP model for the plant growing seasons during ...
