Can scalable design of wings for flapping wing micro air vehicle be inspired by natural flyers? [PDF]
, 2018 Lift production is constantly a great challenge for flapping wing micro air vehicles (MAVs). Designing a workable wing, therefore, plays an essential role. Dimensional analysis is an effective and valuable tool in studying the biomechanics of flyers.

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 7, July 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Climate change has influenced the evolution of the world's biota, shaping species distributions, promoting diversification and causing extinctions. The turbulent climatic oscillations of the Pleistocene, which caused repeated periods of isolation and secondary contact, have left lasting signatures on the genomes of species across the world.

Accelerando and crescendo in African penguin ecstatic display songs
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1549, Issue 1, Page 112-119, July 2025.Human music is often characterized by accelerando—the progressive speeding up of notes—but quantitative investigations of accelerando in other species are lacking. We used a suite of rhythm analyses to show that male African penguins produce ecstatic display songs that get progressively faster (i.e., accelerando) and louder (i.e., crescendo). This work

Population genetic structure and direct observations reveal sex-reversed patterns of dispersal in a cooperative bird [PDF]
, 2014 Sex-biased dispersal is pervasive and has diverse evolutionary implications, but the fundamental drivers of dispersal sex biases remain unresolved. This is due in part to limited diversity within taxonomic groups in the direction of dispersal sex biases,
