Lipid metabolism in Calanus finmarchicus is sensitive to variations in predation risk and food availability

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Late developmental stages of the marine copepods in the genus Calanus can spend extended periods in a dormant stage (diapause) that is preceded by the accumulation of large lipid stores.

Predation risk is a function of seasonality rather than habitat complexity in a tropical semiarid forest

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Predator–prey dynamics are some of the most important species’ interactions in the natural structuring of communities, and are among the more complex ecological processes studied by ecologists.

The Collective Power of Bacteria as a Blueprint for Emergent Intelligence

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Small cells, powerful collectives. Bacteria demonstrate how sophisticated behaviors can emerge from many simple individuals working together. We explore the remarkable world of bacterial communities and the mechanisms that underpin their complex emergent behaviors, enabling impressive adaptability, robustness, and responsiveness to changing ...

Spatial and temporal determinants of samango monkey (Cercopithecus mitis erythrarchus) resource acquisition and predation avoidance behaviour [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Food acquisition and predator avoidance are principal components of the survival strategies of all primates. However, for primates, maximising food acquisition whilst minimising predation risk is often impossible.

Mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) resource selection: trade-offs between forage and predation risk

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Ungulates commonly select habitat with higher forage biomass and or nutritional quality to improve body condition and fitness. However, predation risk can alter ungulate habitat selection and foraging behavior and may affect their nutritional condition ...

Habitat stability and predation pressure affect temperament behaviours in populations of three-spined sticklebacks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
1. There is growing interest in the causes and consequences of animal temperaments. Temperament behaviours often have heritable components, but ecological variables can also affect them. Numerous variables are likely to differ between habitats, and these

Community as the catalyst: A mixed‐methods evaluation of a promotora‐led wellness intervention to address mental health inequities in latine communities

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Latine communities face significant health and mental health inequities, which were exacerbated by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic. Structural barriers, including economic factors and a lack of culturally responsive care, prevent these populations from accessing necessary treatment. This study evaluates the implementation of a

No evidence for spatial variation in predation risk following restricted-area fox culling

open access: yesBMC Ecology, 2019
Background Predation and predator abundance may significantly affect bird populations, especially ground nesting species, because nest predation is often the major cause of nest failure.

Characteristics Associated With Persistent Long COVID Symptoms in Healthcare Personnel Infected With SARS‐CoV‐2 Between August 2022 and May 2024: A Multicenter Cohort Analysis of US Healthcare Personnel

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Long COVID affects a significant proportion of COVID‐19 survivors. This study examined persistent Long COVID symptoms among healthcare personnel (HCP) and evaluated associations with vaccination, prior SARS‐CoV‐2 infection, underlying health conditions, and demographics.

Australian Activists as Storytellers in Digital Spaces: Acquiring Skills, Producing Content and Getting the Message Out

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As modes of activism rapidly evolve, activists—both seasoned and emerging—must increasingly navigate a hybrid terrain of both digital and non‐digital engagement. This paper draws on the personal narratives of 16 nascent activists based in Australia to explore how they develop competencies related to digital storytelling, which is critical to ...
