Soundwalk as a multifaceted practice [PDF]
, 2015 The soundwalk was invented as part of the initiatives undertaken by the World Soundscape Project group with an acoustic ecology profile, which emphasised the noise pollution that exists in people’s sonic environment and the need to reacquire our ‘lost ...

Evolutionary ecology of opsin gene sequence, expression and repertoire. [PDF]
, 2017 Linking molecular evolution to biological function is a long-standing challenge in evolutionary biology. Some of the best examples of this involve opsins, the genes that encode the molecular basis of light reception.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The study presents biodegradable and recyclable mixed‐matrix membranes (MMMs), hydrogels, and cryogels using luminescent nanoscale metal‐organic frameworks (nMOFs) and biopolymers. These bio‐nMOF‐MMMs combine europium‐based nMOFs as probes for the status of the materials with the biopolymers agar and gelatine and present alternatives to conventional ...

Selective Benzene Capture by Metal‐Organic Frameworks
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) hold significant potential for capturing benzene from air emissions and hydrocarbon mixtures in liquid phases. This capability stems from their precisely engineered structures, versatile chemistries, and diverse binding interactions.

An "enactive" approach to integrative and comparative biology: Thoughts on the table
Biological Research, 2003 We discuss the concept of Enaction as originally proposed by Varela. We attempt to exemplify through two specific topics, sensory ecology and behavior, as well as physiological and behavioral ecology, on which the enactive approach is based.

Linking eye design with host symbiont relationships in pontoniine shrimps (crustacea, decapoda, palaemonidae) [PDF]
, 2014 Symbiosis is prevalent in the marine environment with many studies examining the effects of such interactions between host and symbiont. Pontoniine shrimps are a group whose ecology is characterised by symbiotic interactions.
