Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

This study uses spatially explicit capture–recapture modelling of camera trap data to shed light on the status of leopard in Tanzania's Selous–Nyerere ecosystem, one of the largest remaining wilderness areas in Africa. The results highlight the ecosystem as a leopard stronghold, with population densities ranging from 3.80 (±0.64) to 8.08 (±1.54) adult ...

Micromechanical modeling of the Compression of the Damaged Zone experiment in the Callovo-Oxfordian formation [PDF]
A theoretical model of the Compression of the Damaged Zone experiment is proposed. The tools of micromechanics are used to represent the fractured zone. Assuming an elastic behavior of the sound COx claystone and a simplified geometry of the drift, an

Red deer adult sex ratio: comparing three approaches using camera trap data
A naïve estimate of the adult sex ratio in red deer (Cervus elaphus) using raw camera trap data showed no bias when compared to more advanced statistical methods that account for detection probabilities or predict the sex of unknown sightings. Abstract European forests face severe challenges due to climate change, highlighting the importance of tree ...

Social discounting, social costs of carbon, and their use in energy system models
Discounting plays a large role in cost-optimization models, but is nevertheless often only covered in little detail in energy system models. The aim of this paper is to highlight the effects of varying discount rates and social costs of carbon in energy ...

Male Mnais damselflies occur in two genetically controlled morphs: an orange‐winged territorial morph that defends oviposition sites and actively courts females and a co‐occurring clear‐winged sneaker morph that does not defend territories or display, yet mates opportunistically with females.

Structure and dynamics of the active Gs-coupled human secretin receptor
The class B secretin GPCR (SecR) has broad physiological effects, with target potential for treatment of metabolic and cardiovascular disease. Here, authors present a cryo-EM structure and biochemical studies of secretin binding to the SecR:Gs complex ...
