Sensory ecology, receiver biases and sexual selection

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1998
During courtship, signals are sent between the sexes, and received signals contain information that forms the basis of decision making. Much is known about signal content, but less is known about signal design-what makes signals work efficiently? A consideration of design not only gives new insights into the evolution of signals (including novelty ...

Plant ecoacoustics: a sensory ecology approach

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2023
Many interactions of plants with the environment have an acoustic component, including the actions of herbivores and pollinators, wind and rain. Although plants have long been tested for their response to single tones or music, their response to naturally occurring sources of sound and vibration is barely explored.

The beauty of sensory ecology

History and Philosophy of the Life Sciences, 2017
Sensory ecology is a discipline that focuses on how living creatures use information to survive, but not to live. By trans-defining the orthodox concept of sensory ecology, a serious heterodox question arises: how do organisms use their senses to live, i.e. to enjoy or suffer life?

Sensory Ecology of Scyphomedusae

Marine and Freshwater Behaviour and Physiology, 1995
The sensory ecology of scyphomedusae is a subject ripe for investigation. There are sensory structures for which there is no experimental evidence of function, there are behavioral performances for which there are no demonstrated sense organs, and there are behaviors for which there are no adaptive explanations.

ECOLOGICAL-SENSORY MINDFULNESS

It is without a doubt true that nature is the foundation of all ecosystems and that all living things inherit the intelligence of nature, but every human being has the primary desire to survive, along with the need to improve livelihoods, the desire to gratify wants, and eventually the desire to control their environment—all without adhering to the ...

Sensory Ecology of Birds

1978
Birds inhabit a wide range of habitats; some are flightless, others annually migrate thousands of miles. Despite this variety, relatively few studies have specifically investigated their sensory ecology. Nevertheless, in the past few years important new information on avian sensory abilities has become available.
