DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23426
Abstract: Dispersal between social groups reduces the risk of inbreeding and can improve individuals' reproductive opportunities. However, this movement has costs, such as increased risk of predation and starvation, loss of allies and kin support, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12571-018-0842-z
Abstract: Increasing agricultural productivity while protecting natural resources depends on proper understanding of farmers’ incentives to use intensification strategies, including fertilizer. Using a large-scale household dataset collected in rural Burkina Faso, we examined how the response… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2020.01.009
Abstract: Personality traits (i.e. consistent individual differences in behaviour) often covary, forming behavioural syndromes. Such associations, if driven by an underlying proximate mechanism, could limit the independent evolution of each behaviour. In contrast, a behavioural syndrome… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jaa.2019.101071
Abstract: Abstract Predictive modeling for high probability zones for detection of submerged prehistoric sites remains an integral part of this subdiscipline. It typically relies on a combination of physiographic parameters detectable in offshore zones and known… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/beheco/arz072
Abstract: Abstract Within socially monogamous breeding systems, levels of extra-pair paternity can vary not only between species, populations, and individuals, but also across time. Uncovering how different extrinsic conditions (ecological, demographic, and social) influence this behavior… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/14747049211032351
Abstract: Ecological conditions provide information about available resources for one’s environment. In humans, this has been shown to influence reproductive behavior, as individuals may engage in trade-offs between partner quality and investment. For instance, many women… read more here.

The Role of Strigolactones and Their Potential Cross-talk under Hostile Ecological Conditions in Plants
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Frontiers in Physiology"
DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2016.00691
Abstract: The changing environment always questions the survival mechanism of life on earth. The plant being special in the sense of their sessile habit need to face many of these environmental fluctuations as they have a… read more here.

Changes in ecological conditions may influence intraguild competition: inferring interaction patterns of snow leopard with co-predators
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.14277
Abstract: Background Large-scale changes in habitat conditions due to human modifications and climate change require management practices to consider how species communities can alter amidst these changes. Understanding species interactions across the gradient of space, anthropogenic… read more here.
