• Application of machine learning techniques for creating urban microbial fingerprints 

  Ryan, Feargal Joseph (Springer Nature, 2019-08-16)

  Background: Research has found that human associated microbial communities play a role in homeostasis and the disruption of these communities may be important in an array of medical conditions. However outside of the human ...
• Amplicon sequencing of 42 nuclear loci supports directional gene flow between South Pacific populations of a hydrothermal vent limpet 

  Plouviez, Sophie; LaBella, Abigail Leavitt; Weisrock, David W.; von Meijenfeldt, F. A. Bastiaan; Ball, Bernard; Neigel, Joseph E.; Van Dover, Cindy L. (John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2019-05-06)

  In the past few decades, population genetics and phylogeographic studies have improved our knowledge of connectivity and population demography in marine environments. Studies of deep‐sea hydrothermal vent populations have ...
• Zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) shift toward aerodynamically efficient flight kinematics in response to an artificial load 

  Lapsansky, Anthony B.; Igo, Jennifer A.; Tobalske, Bret W. (Company of Biologists Ltd, 2019-06-06)

  We investigated the effect of an added mass emulating a transmitter on the flight kinematics of zebra finches (Taeniopygia guttata), both to identify proximal effects of loading and to test fundamental questions regarding ...
• Assessing the effectiveness of foraging radius models for seabird distributions using biotelemetry and survey data 

  Critchley, Emma Jane; Grecian, W. J.; Bennison, Ashley; Kane, Adam; Wischnewski, Saskia; Cañadas, A.; Tierney, D.; Quinn, John L.; Jessopp, Mark J. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2019-11-01)

  Relatively simple foraging radius models have the potential to generate predictive distributions for a large number of species rapidly, thus providing a cost‐effective alternative to large‐scale surveys or complex modelling ...
• Age-dependent effects of moderate differences in environmental predictability forecasted by climate change, experimental evidence from a short-lived lizard (Zootoca vivipara) 

  Masó, G.; Kaufmann, Joshka; Clavero, H.; Fitze, P. S. (Springer Nature, 2019-10-29)

  Whether and how differences in environmental predictability affect life-history traits is controversial and may depend on mean environmental conditions. Solid evidence for effects of environmental predictability are lacking ...
