For nearly half a century, ecologists have sought to explain animal space use through characteristics of the environment (i.e., habitat). Recent evidence suggests animals also use memory of previous experiences to decide when and where to move. Yet, the relative influence of the two in explaining animal space use has not been resolved. Using six large ungulate species in the Rocky Mountains (USA), we evaluated the performance...
Instream wood is important for fish in headwater streams because it promotes the development of pool habitat and provides cover from predators during periods of low flow. The benefits of large instream wood (length > 1 m and diameter > 0.1 m) have been extensively documented, but little is known about the influence of small instream wood (length ≤ 1 m or diameter ≤ 0.1 m) on fish communities and hydraulic conditions (i.e., wat...
Prolonging survival in good health is a fundamental societal goal. However, the leading determinants of disability-free survival in healthy older people have not been well established. Data from ASPREE, a bi-national placebo-controlled trial of aspirin with 4.7 years median follow-up, was analysed. At enrolment, participants were healthy and without prior cardiovascular events, dementia or persistent physical disability. Disab...
Techniques for live capture of deepwater fishes with special emphasis on the design and application of a low‐cost hyperbaric chamberNARA Subscribed
A cost effective, simple, portable hyperbaric chamber was constructed from polyvinyl chloride to aid in the collection of adult rockfishes Sebastes sp. to hold as broodstock. This system was designed to recompress fishes quickly once brought to the surface on hook and line, and to allow for decompression over a period of days. The hyperbaric chamber is capable of continuous stable operation at −2 and can accommodate fishes up...
