Enhanced thermoregulation abilities of shortfin mako sharks as the key adaptive significance of regional endothermy in fishes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We show that regionally endothermic shortfin mako sharks have enhanced thermoregulatory ability with an order higher warming rate than cooling rate during repeated dives, likely optimizing foraging efficiency. This ability, only comparable to bigeye tuna and swordfish in teleosts, represents the key adaptive significance of regional endothermy in ...

Long‐range pollen transport across the North Sea: Insights from migratory hoverflies landing on a remote oil rig

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study identifies pollen from over 100 plant species—including wildflowers, food and crops—carried by hoverflies alighting onto an oilrig 200 km off the coast during seasonal migrations. Analysis of their movements indicates a huge potential to enhance long distance gene flow between plants and increase pollination services.

Towards scalable insect monitoring: Ultra‐lightweight CNNs as on‐device triggers for insect camera traps

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Camera traps, combined with AI, have emerged to achieve automated, scalable biodiversity monitoring. However, passive infrared (PIR) sensors that typically trigger camera traps are poorly suited for detecting small, fast‐moving ectotherms such as insects. Insects comprise over half of all animal species and are key components of ecosystems and

Inferring activity patterns of aquatic animals from single‐receiver acoustic telemetry setups

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Acoustic telemetry has become an essential tool for studying activity patterns of animals in aquatic environments. Activity is typically recorded using transmitters with integrated sensors or dense receiver arrays for positional tracking. While effective, these approaches are financially and logistically expensive due to the need for advanced ...

Comparative Urodynamic Study in Cadaver of Urethral Pressure Profilometry Between the Artificial Urinary Sphincter UroActive and the AMS800

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
The Artificial Urinary Sphincter is currently the gold standard treatment for stress urinary incontinence in men, and it's also a treatment option for women in Europe. UroActive is a new electronic AUS that offers remotely adjustable settings, including device pressure, potentially offering an alternative to the current AMS800.
