Exploration Behavior Is Consistent and Associated With Foraging Behavior in Island Songbirds

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 4, July 2025.
We tested the neophobia threshold hypothesis in six landbird species, including four Darwin's finches. Exploration behavior was consistent over time and contexts, with species exhibiting greater foraging diversity showing higher exploratory tendencies.

A novel approach for obtaining new identities for the lambda extension of q- Euler polynomials arising from the q-umbral calculus

, 2017
In this article, a new q-generalization of the Apostol-Euler polynomials is introduced using the usual q-exponential function. We make use of such a generalization to derive several properties arising from the q-umbral calculus.

Metabolic traits and thresholds to inform marine ecological conservation and restoration

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 6, Page 1350-1363, June 2025.
Integrating organismal responses to environmental stressors into monitoring protocols can provide early warning indicators of ecosystem health. This approach strengthens conservation and restoration initiatives, supporting policy decisions in the face of increasing coastal development and climate change.

Sequential testing of complementary hypotheses about population density

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 1228-1238, June 2025.
Abstract Making inferences about population density is paramount in ecology and pest management for decision‐makers who often seek to determine how a population compares to a pre‐established static or dynamic threshold through sampling or monitoring. Sequential data analysis is appealing for monitoring and decision making as it is more cost‐efficient ...

Use of a poll‐mounted accelerometer for quantification and characterisation of equine trigeminal‐mediated headshaking

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 57, Issue 3, Page 645-653, May 2025.
Abstract Background Equine trigeminal‐mediated (TGM) headshaking (HS) is a neuropathic facial pain syndrome characterised by varying intensity and frequencies of head movements and signs of nasal irritation. An accurate method for quantification and/or characterisation of HS severity is lacking.

Threats posed by land use to water quality in South Africa's strategic water source areas

World Water Policy, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 155-164, February 2025.
Abstract Understanding the negative impacts of land use/land cover (LULC) on water quality is key to developing effective integrated catchment management strategies. However, in line with the Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) philosophy, this necessitates the generation and application of useful scientific knowledge, which stakeholders and ...

On Mittag-Leffler-Gegenbauer polynomials arising by the convolution of Mittag-Leffler function and Hermite polynomials

AIMS Mathematics
Gegenbauer polynomials hold a significant role in the constructive theory of spherical functions, while the Mittag-Leffler function is widely used in fractional calculus.

Scaling up ocean conservation through recognition of key biodiversity areas in the Southern Ocean from multispecies tracking data

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Biodiversity is critical for maintaining ecosystem function but is threatened by increasing anthropogenic pressures. In the Southern Ocean, a highly biologically productive region containing many endemic species, proactive management is urgently needed to mitigate increasing pressures from fishing, climate change, and tourism.

Identities arising from higher-order Daehee polynomial bases

Open Mathematics, 2015
Here we will derive formulas for expressing any polynomial as linear combinations of two kinds of higherorder Daehee polynomial basis. Then we will apply these formulas to certain polynomials in order to get new and interesting identities involving ...
