Odour-mediated oviposition-site selection by mosquitoes
, 2022 The exploration of the chemical ecology of oviposition behaviour in mosquitoes provides the means to describe the role of volatile organic compounds used by gravid mosquitoes to secure intrinsic fitness.

Validity of a Wearable Digital Insole for Assessing Gait ON and OFF in Parkinson's Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Gait impairment is a distinctive symptom of Parkinson's disease that negatively impact mobility. We assessed the validity of wearable digital insoles against a validated reference gait analysis system for measuring select gait characteristics in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods A comparative analysis between digital insoles

Applied Studies of Raptor Sensory Ecology are Rare
, 2022 Light and noise often act as pollutants, but can also be used as tools for managing wildlife (e.g., sensory deterrents). Given that raptors are among the most threatened groups of birds, we expected there to be a moderate amount of applied research on ...

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Cognitive impairment is a common non‐motor symptom in Multiple Sclerosis (MS), negatively affecting autonomy and Quality of Life (QoL). Innovative rehabilitation strategies, such as semi‐immersive virtual reality (VR) and computerized cognitive training (CCT), may offer advantages over traditional cognitive rehabilitation (TCR ...

Raising and Releasing a Single Orphaned Harbour Seal Pup—A Case Report
AnimalsWell-founded animal models of maternal separation show that early postnatal separation from the mother represents a massive stress factor for the offspring, with far-reaching negative effects on their physical and behavioural development.

Do lighting conditions influence bird–window collisions?
Avian Conservation and Ecology, 2022 Bird–window collisions account for approximately one billion bird deaths annually in North America. Highly reflective or mirrored glass is associated with increased collision risk, but little is known about whether the reflection caused by differential ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Ecosystems are shaped by complex interactions between species and their environment. However, humans are rapidly changing the environment through increased carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, creating global warming and elevated CO2 levels that affect ...

Introduction In The Sensory Ecology
, 2016 There are considered ecological peculiarity of development and structural and functional organization of the most important sensory systems of organisms (visual, hearing, olfaction and taste) and mechanism of these systems participation in the decision a series of ecological tasks: the biological isolation of species, providing of the sexual, parental ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates an efficient recycling route for out‐of‐spec AlSi10Mg atomized powders through compaction and arc remelting followed by suction casting. By correlating compaction load, cooling rate, and resulting microstructure, we show that intermediate pressures (50–80 kN) and rapid cooling refine dendrites, reduce porosity, and enhance ...
