Learning is enhanced by tailoring instruction to individual genetic differences. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
It is widely argued that personalized instruction based on individual differences in learning styles or genetic predispositions could improve learning outcomes.

Scavenger Assemblage Behavior at Puma Kills in the Santa Cruz Mountains, California

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
The count of the number of kills visited for each scavenger species and the number of kills where the species was the first to discover the carcass. ABSTRACT Scavengers structure food webs through consuming carrion and cycling nutrients in ecosystems. Scavenger assemblages are shaped by multiple factors, including intra‐ and interspecific competition ...

Using SMS surveys to understand songbird ownership and shark product consumption in Indonesia

open access: yesOryx
The unsustainable use of wildlife increases the risk of species extinction. In biodiversity-rich Indonesia, information on the scale of wildlife use is limited and requires further study.

Studying interspecific population synchrony: current status and future perspectives

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 5, May 2026.
Interspecific population synchrony, or co‐fluctuations in the population dynamics and demographic parameters of different species, is an important ecological phenomenon with major implications for the stability of communities and ecosystems. It is also central in the context of biodiversity loss, as interspecific synchrony can influence how ecological ...

Low‐intensity urban development delays the spring departures of nonbreeding migratory bird populations

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Urban areas alter the timings (phenologies) of seasonal processes for plants and animals, yet the effects on bird migration, particularly pre‐breeding migration, are not well understood. Higher temperatures, higher levels of artificial light at night, and earlier vegetation emergence in urban areas can advance spring seasonal processes ...

The Dentate Gyrus Grows Throughout Life Despite Turnover of Developmentally‐Born Neurons

open access: yesHippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Adult‐born hippocampal neurons are highly plastic but there remains uncertainty about the magnitude of neurogenesis and its long‐term functional consequences. Theoretical predictions indicate that adult neurogenesis should lead to substantial growth of the dentate gyrus (DG) granule cell population.

Grassland bird diversity and abundance in the presence of native and non-native grazers

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2021
Temperate grassland biomes are globally imperiled, and grassland birds are in precipitous decline as a result. The majority of North America's grassland birds breed on rangelands occupied by domestic cattle, but reintroductions of bison to restore ...

Ecophysiology of an Avian Invader: Body Condition and Metabolic Rate Adjustments to Ambient Temperature

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 21, Issue 3, Page 602-608, May 2026.
This study examines the ecophysiological responses of common waxbills to temperature variation in Portugal. We measured body condition and basal metabolic rate (BMR) during summer and winter across two regions in Portugal. Body condition was negatively correlated with temperature, while the relationship between BMR and temperature varied seasonally. In

Thresholding species distribution models: Simple approaches for land‐use planning in multifunctional landscapes

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1462-1479, May 2026.
Abstract Species distribution models (SDMs) are often used to understand changes to species' distributions and their habitats under different land‐use scenarios, enabling decision makers to prioritize areas for management efforts and balance environmental conservation with socio‐economic demands on the landscape.

Ecoacoustics for context‐rich direct and indirect trophic interaction data and ecological network construction

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1489-1505, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding species interactions is critical for ecology and conservation, yet conventional network construction methods often lack spatiotemporal resolution and important contextual information. The growing field of ecoacoustics enables remote sensing across large spatiotemporal scales and the monitoring of otherwise cryptic communities ...
