Published in 2023 at "American Journal of Primatology"

DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23467

Abstract: Food availability and climate represent environmental factors that affect species' social behavior, ranging patterns, diet, and activity budget. From August 2012 to September 2013, we examined the effects of seasonal changes in food availability, temperature,… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9338

Abstract: Abstract Nutrient composition and food availability determine food choices and foraging strategies of animals, while altitude and geographical location affect species distribution and food availability. Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana) have sophisticated foraging strategies as the… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Oecologia"

DOI: 10.1007/s00442-021-05084-6

Abstract: The balance of energy allocated to development and growth of different body compartments may incur allocation conflicts and can thereby entail physiological and evolutionary consequences. Regeneration after autotomy restores the functionality lost after shedding a… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Urban Ecosystems"

DOI: 10.1007/s11252-018-0784-4

Abstract: Little is known about the environmental factors that limit the demography and abundance of wild vertebrates in highly modified urban environments. The House Sparrow Passer domesticus is a globally widespread species whose urban populations have… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Animal Behaviour"

DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2020.11.007

Abstract: Prey around the world experience the risk of predation, and most have evolved constitutive and phenotypically plastic defences in response. Phenotypically plastic defences often come with trade-offs related to foraging, such that the magnitude of… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Environmental science & technology"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.7b03585

Abstract: We monitored concentrations of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in relation to climate-associated changes in feeding habits and food availability in polar bears (Ursus maritimus) and arctic foxes (Vulpes lagopus) (192 plasma and 113 liver… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-16346-w

Abstract: Many marine invertebrates including ctenophores are capable of extensive body regeneration when injured. However, as for the invasive ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi, there is a constant subportion of individuals not undergoing whole body regeneration but forming… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-58846-2

Abstract: When organisms are unable to feed ad libitum they may be more susceptible to negative effects of environmental stressors such as ocean acidification and warming (OAW). We reared sea bass ( Dicentrarchus labrax ) at… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Current Zoology"

DOI: 10.1093/cz/zoaa022

Abstract: Fluctuations in food availability occur in many ecosystems and pose challenges to the organisms that inhabit them (Berg et al. 2017). Because lizards have significantly lower field metabolic rates than endotherms, they are often considered… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "FEMS microbiology ecology"

DOI: 10.1093/femsec/fiz103

Abstract: Determining the factors underlying the assembly, structure, and diversity of symbiont communities remains a focal point of animal-microbiome research. Much of these efforts focus on taxonomic variation of microbiota within or between animal populations, but… read more here.
