Effective acoustical monitoring tools for Mannophryne lamarcai
We performed the field-work during the dry (March 2014) and reainy season (May and June 2014) at the species type locality: Cerro Socopó, located at central-west region between... -

Top predators of the arctic tundra are facing a long period of very low prey availability during winter and subsidies from other ecosystems such as the marine environment may... -
(Table 2) Carbon and nitrogen isotopic ratios in blood sampled from arctic fo...
Inter-individual variation in diet within generalist animal populations is thought to be a widespread phenomenon but its potential causes are poorly known. Inter-individual... -

The northern boundary of boreal forest and the ranges of tree species are expected to shift northward in response to climate warming, which will result in a decrease in the... -
(Table 1) Tagging date, total length and sex of bowhead whales (Balaena mysti...
Working with subsistence whale hunters, we tagged 19 mostly immature bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus) with satellite-linked transmitters between May 2006 and September 2008... -
(Table 1) Nesting characteristics of greater snow geese (Chen caerulescens at...
Habitat heterogeneity and predator behaviour can strongly affect predator-prey interactions but these factors are rarely considered simultaneously, especially when systems... -
(Table 1) Rodent (lemming and vole) densities in 5 study areas in the Canadia...
Lemmings construct nests of grass and moss under the snow during winter, and counting these nests in spring is 1 method of obtaining an index of winter density and habitat use.... -

Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) undertake extensive seasonal migrations from summer feeding areas in high latitudes to winter mating and calving grounds in tropical... -
(Table 1) Date, deployment location, tag longevity, and satellite data of hum...
Knowledge of the local and migratory movements of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) from New Caledonia is very limited. To investigate this topic, we attached... -
(Table 1) Morphometrics of narwhal (Monodon monoceros) fluke planforms
In this study, we compared the fluke geometries of male and female narwhals, which may be associated with hydrodynamic effects. Computerized tomography (CT) scanning was used to... -
(Table 3) Soil temperatures at 10 cm depth after different treatments of wet ...
Wet sedge tundra communities in the High Arctic are valuable sources of forage for several resident and migratory herbivores; however, the effects of grazing on these systems... -
(Table 1) Tree age, post fire stand age, and soil organic matter thickness in...
The observed long-term decrease in the regional fire activity of Eastern Canada results in excessive accumulation of organic layer on the forest floor of coniferous forests,... -
(Tables 1,2) Site characteristics and phenotypic attributes of King Penguins ...
In colonial species, it is often assumed that locations in the center of the colony are of highest quality and provide highest breeding success. We tested this prediction, known... -
(Table 1) Foraging trip characteristics of male Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis a...
Knowledge of habitat use by top marine predators in response to environmental conditions is crucial in the current context of global changes occurring in the Southern Ocean. We... -
(Table 1) Diving behaviour of male Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) with ...
The amount of energy that organisms can allocate to self-maintenance and/or reproduction largely depends on their foraging strategies. Because of corticosterone (CORT)... -
(Table 1) Lipid and organochlorine content in blood of common eiders (Somater...
Female common eiders (Somateria mollissima) starve during the nesting stage and may lose 30-45% of their initial body mass, mostly through lipid mobilization. In this study, the... -
(Table 1) Comparison of dive duration and speed of Adélie penguins (Pygosceli...
Bio-logging studies suffer from the lack of real controls. However, it is still possible to compare indirect parameters between control and equipped animals to assess the level... -
(Table 1) Egg laying and hatching dates and guarding duration of Adélie pengu...
In Polar Regions, the extent and dynamics of sea-ice are changing. This affects the ocean productivity which consecutively impacts plankton communities and polar top predators... -
(Table 1) Stage of the lemming cycle and nesting parameters of the greater sn...
Resource pulses are common in various ecosystems and often have large impacts on ecosystem functioning. Many animals hoard food during resource pulses, yet how this behaviour... -
