Cellular and Subcellular Mechanisms of Ventricular Mechano-Arrhythmogenesis
Intrinsic regulation of cardiac electrical and mechanical activity allows the heart to adjust its function to meet the metabolic demand of the body....

New perspectives on the role of cleaning symbiosis in the possible transmission of fish diseases
For the last seven decades, cleaning symbiosis in the marine environment has been a research field of intrigue. There is substantial evidence that,...

The effect of externally attached archival data loggers on the short-term dispersal behaviour and migration speed of European eel (Anguilla anguilla L.)
BackgroundExternally attached archival data logging tags are increasingly used to unravel migration routes of fish species at sea. Due to the...

Annual movements of a migratory seabird—the NW European red-throated diver (Gavia stellata)—reveals high individual repeatability but low migratory connectivity
In this study, the annual movements of a seabird species, the red-throated diver ( Gavia stellata ), were investigated in space and time. Between 2015...

Influence of thermal stratification and storms on acoustic telemetry detection efficiency: a year-long test in the US Southern Mid-Atlantic Bight
BackgroundThe detection efficiency of ultrasonic transmitters is seasonally variable, requiring long-term studies to evaluate key environmental...

Predator telemetry informs temporal and spatial overlap with stocked salmonids in Lake Huron
Double-Crested Cormorants ( Phalacrocorax auratus ), Walleyes ( Sander vitreus ), and Lake Trout ( Salvelinus namaycush ) are migratory predators that...

Home range, movement, and activity patterns of the Florida spotted skunk (Spilogale putorius ambarvalis) in prairie habitat
The eastern spotted skunk ( Spilogale putorius ) is of increasing conservation concern across its range, with managers requiring information on the...

Prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites in a lowland Black Grouse population in Central Europe
The Northern German Black Grouse metapopulation has been affected since decades by a sharply decline that has ultimately led to a reduced genetic...

Migration patterns and conservation status of Asian Great Bustard (Otis tarda dybowskii) in northeast Asia
The Great Bustard ( Otis tarda ) holds the distinction of the heaviest bird to undertake migration as well as the greatest degree of sexual size...

Year-round movements of Long-tailed Ducks Clangula hyemalis from Kolguev Island, Barents Sea
Arctic birds migrating southwards face a multitude of challenges such as habitat loss, pollution, overexploitation of food resources and climate...

Effects of tag mass on the physiology and behaviour of common noctule bats
BackgroundExternal tags, such as transmitters and loggers, are often used to study bat movements. However, physiological and behavioural effects on...

Seasonal migration and habitat use of adult barbel (Barbus barbus) and nase (Chondrostoma nasus) along a river stretch of the Austrian Danube River
Migration patterns and habitat use of adult barbel ( Barbus barbus ) and nase ( Chondrostoma nasus ) were monitored by radio telemetry over a period of...

Partitioning survival during early marine migration of wild and hatchery-reared Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) smolts using acoustic telemetry
The marine migration of Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ) has been prioritised for research internationally as populations of S. salar have declined...

The spatial and temporal exploitation of anthropogenic food sources by common ravens (Corvus corax) in the Alps
BackgroundAnthropogenic food sources (AFSs) are widespread in human-transformed landscapes and the current scale at which they occur drives...

Non-breeding ranging behaviour, habitat use, and pre-breeding migratory movements of Fieldfares (Turdus pilaris) wintering in southern Europe
Improving our understanding of the spatio-temporal distribution of migratory game species is pivotal for develo** flyway-based management...

Year-round spatial distribution and migration phenology of a rapidly declining trans-Saharan migrant—evidence of winter movements and breeding site fidelity in European turtle doves
AbstractPopulations of migratory bird species have suffered a sustained and severe decline for several decades. Contrary to non-migratory species,...

Spatial ecology of translocated American Eel (Anguilla rostrata) in a large freshwater lake
American Eel ( Anguilla rostrata ) undertake extensive migrations from their rearing grounds to spawn in the Sargasso Sea, and historically the upper...

Cool runnings: behavioural plasticity and the realised thermal niche of basking sharks
Long-distance migrations by marine vertebrates are often triggered by pronounced environmental cues. For the endangered basking shark ( Cetorhinus...

Mechanisms of Chemosensory Transduction in the Carotid Body
The mammalian carotid body (CB) is a polymodal chemoreceptor, which is activated by blood-borne stimuli, most notably hypoxia, hypercapnia and...

Beyond just a dam blockage problem: larger artificial reservoirs are additional obstacles to reproductive fish migration in the Neotropics
One of the most conspicuous impacts of dam construction on fish is the blocking of their migratory routes. However, the formation of the reservoir, a...
