Using Drone‐Derived Imagery to Describe Prey Sharing Behaviors in Two Piscivorous Resident Killer Whale PopulationsNARA Subscribed
Cooperative foraging occurs across diverse taxa and facilitates prey acquisition and social learning, particularly when prey is shared among group members. In Resident killer whales ( Orcinus orca ater ), prey sharing is central to how individuals acquire salmonid prey, yet current research has relied primarily on boat‐based observations. Using 10 years of drone‐based imagery, we examined prey sharing behaviors in two populati...
Climate change threatens biodiversity when species cannot tolerate, adapt to, or track shifting environmental conditions to stay within their climatic niches. A major unresolved question is whether and how species' genetic diversity modulates these dynamics, buffering against range contractions or facilitating range expansions. To test this, we integrated the largest global databases of species range shifts and genetic diversi...
Existing Soundscapes and the Impact of Noise on the Welfare of Farmed Salmonids: A ReviewNARA Subscribed
Understanding how farmed salmonids sense and respond to their environment is key to securing animal welfare and efficient production. However, hearing has rarely received attention, despite the omnipresence of underwater sound and its potential effects. We describe how and what salmonids hear, and explore how hearing may differ between wild and farmed conspecifics. We then conduct two systematic reviews, to: (1) understand the...
Sea lice can flourish when salmon are farmed in open sea‐cages, necessitating treatments to control outbreaks and reduce larval export. However, mobile ectoparasitic stages can be dislodged during crowding or other procedures, and potentially reinfest farmed or wild fish. We studied vertical movements and host‐finding behaviours of mobile salmon lice ( Lepeophtheirus salmonis ) released into the water column, and used those da...
Sensorimotor adaptation to sustained lower visual field occlusion during continuous locomotion with and without obstacle negotiationNARA Subscribed
The importance of having visual feedback of the lower-limb to locomotion control, has typically been examined by intermittently occluding the lower visual field (lvf) in repeated obstacle crossing trials. A consistent finding is that foot clearance increases following lvf occlusion. However, there is some evidence that the increase in clearance diminishes with further repetition. This calls into question the importance of lvf...
What is a cycling race simulation anyway: a review on protocols to assess durability in cyclingNARA Subscribed
Physiological resilience or durability is now recognised as a determinant of endurance performance such as road cycling. Reliable, ecologically valid and standardised performance tests in laboratory-based cycling protocols have to be established to investigate mechanisms underpinning, and interventions improving durability. This review aims to provide an overview of available race simulation protocols in the literature and exa...
