Consequences of temperature and temperature variability on swimming activity, group structure, and predation of endangered delta smelt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The effects of water temperature on individual and group movement behaviour in prey fish can affect ecological interactions such as competition and predation, but how variability in temperature influence fish behaviour is less understood.

SEXUAL PREDATORS

open access: yesPsychiatric Clinics of North America, 1999
Social responses to sex-offending behaviors have included criminal sanctions and clinical interventions that have evolved over time.

Environmental conditions during early life accelerate the rate of senescence in a short-lived passerine bird [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Environmental conditions experienced in early life may shape subsequent phenotypic traits including life history. We investigated how predation risk caused by domestic cats (Felis silvestris catus) and local breeding density affected patterns of ...

Higher predation risk for insect prey at low latitudes and elevations

open access: yesScience, 2017
Risky in the tropics It is well known that diversity increases toward the tropics. Whether this increase translates into differences in interaction rates among species, however, remains unclear. To simplify the problem, Roslin et al. tested for predation
