Background Satellite telemetry is a key method to study cetacean movements, but it is limited by sparse location data and positional errors. Positions are recorded only when animals surface and satellite coverage is available, creating large temporal ...

We synthesized GPS telemetry, genetic, and pathogen data to evaluate metapopulation processes in a reintroduced Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis canadensis) population in Dinosaur National Monument. We estimated subpopulation‐specific abundances and found 4 small subpopulations with high genetic diversity, partial connectivity, and ...

ABSTRACT Background Postoperative complications substantially increase morbidity, mortality and healthcare costs. Understanding prognostic factors is essential for risk stratification, targeted prevention strategies, and development of prediction models.

Rapid Changes in Ocean Surface Waves Across the Eye of Hurricane Milton (2024)
Abstract Two wave buoys deployed in the direct path of Hurricane Milton show a remarkable reduction in significant wave height and peak wave period as the eye of the storm passes and wind speeds are briefly reduced. The rapid adjustment of the waves to the lower wind speeds is initially unexpected, but is explained by the observed changes in the scalar

Tracking a Rangeland Fire With Infrasound Arrays
Abstract We present the first infrasound analyses of a rangeland fire and demonstrate infrasound's potential in monitoring wildland fires. We recorded a prescribed fire in sagebrush steppe in cool, moist conditions, using eight infrasound arrays of diverse size (3–44 sensors, 10–200 m width) and distance (0–20 km), including four arrays inside the burn

This study tested physiological mechanisms of movement patterns in Gopher Tortoises (Gopherus polyphemus) by using autonomous GPS loggers. Total distance traveled, but not home range area, was physiologically limited. Females traveled the same distance as males, but had smaller home range areas, which challenges traditional understanding of sex‐based ...

Nutritional and reproductive dynamics of moose near their southern range limit
Though southern moose (Alces alces) had relatively low seasonal fluctuations in body fat, their condition was positively associated with pregnancy and adult survival but did not influence recruitment of young. We demonstrated clear signs of nutritional limitation and unexpected patterns of reproductive performance that may be unique to moose living at ...

Density‐dependent habitat selection in plains bison
Using GPS collar data, we tested whether habitat selection of plains bison in Grasslands National Park, Canada, was density dependent. Bison selected for areas of high vegetation productivity far from human activity when population density was low and increased use of lower productivity habitat closer to disturbance as density increased.

Abstract The need for comprehensive equine welfare assessments has become particularly evident amid ongoing debates about the social licence to operate in equestrian sports. During exercise, multiple physiological systems, principally the cardiovascular, respiratory, muscular, thermoregulatory, endocrine, and locomotory systems, undergo complex ...
