Direct and indirect effects of increased bedload on algal and detrital-based stream food webs at the Coweeta Hydrologic Laboratory from 1997 to 1999: Tile/ sediment addition experiment, Summer 1997; Chlorophyll, AFDM, inorganics (days 5-40)
Anthropogenic sedimentation poses a significant threat to stream ecosystems throughout the world. Increases in bedload (sediment transported and deposited on the stream bottom) can be especially detrimental for benthic communities. To examine how increased bedload directly and indirectly affects stream communities, we simultaneously manipulated sediment and top-down effects of macroconsumers (fishes and crayfish) in situ in two factorial experiments, one using tiles and one using leaf packs as sampling substrates. Bedload was increased by adding small amounts of sediment (2.5 x normal levels) to localized areas (0.25 m2) of an otherwise unimpacted stream. This increase in bedload had direct effects on basal resources in both the tile and leaf pack experiments. In the tile experiment algal composition was altered by sediment addition, while in the leaf pack experiment fungal biomass declined with sediment.
Figure 1 in How survival and food intake of tri-spine horseshoe crabsı Tachypleus tridentatus respond to thermal variation: implications for understanding its distribution limit
Figure 1. Global distribution of T. tridentatus as reported by previous literature, and the regional changes of sea surface temperature (SST) in (a) summer and (b) winter. Note the three occurrence reports outside their geographic range: (1) a non-native population from Chubu Region, Central Japan; (2) an escape population from Okinawa Prefecture, Japan due to broken nets during transportation; (3) a sighting of single female from Jeju, South Korea, which was not associated with a known spawning or juvenile nursery habitat.

Figure 6. Above: still image collected from video Sequence 2 (0.27 s later than the image shown in Figure 4). Short white arrows indicate movements of the two anterior pectoral fins (left anterior pectoral fin largely obscured). The right anterior pectoral fin is moving backwards and laterally with the anterior fin rays against the substratum. Long white arrows indicate movements of the large posterior pectoral fins, both of which were moving forwards and laterally, not in contact with the substratum. Below: line drawing of outline of fish and its fins.

Figure 5. Above: still image collected from video Sequence 2. Fish viewed from above and slightly behind. White arrows indicate movements of the two anterior pectoral fins (right fin clearer than left; not quite in synchrony). The right anterior pectoral fin is moving forwards/medially and the anterior fin rays are moving downwards. Below: line drawing of outline of fish and its fins.

Predictability of food supply modulates nocturnal hypothermia in a small passerine
<p class="MsoBodyText">The combination of short days and long cold nights in winter, in temperate regions, presents a major challenge for small diurnal birds. Small birds regularly employ heterothermy and enter rest-phase hypothermia during winter nights to conserve energy. However, we know little about how environmental conditions, such as food availability, shape these strategies.</p> <p class="MsoBodyText">Using an experimental set-up, we manipulated food availability in winter to free-living great tits <i>Parus major</i>. A "predictable" and constant food supply was provided to birds in one area of a forest, while birds in another area did not have access to a reliable supplementary food source. We found that predictability of food affected the extent of nocturnal hypothermia, but the response differed between sexes. Whereas male nocturnal body temperature was similar regardless of food availability, females exposed to a naturally "unpredictable" food supply entered deeper hypothermia at night, compared with females that had access to predictable food and compared with males in both treatment groups. We suggest that this response likely is a consequence of dominance, and the subdominant females cannot maintain sufficient energy intake, resulting in a higher demand for energy conservation at night.</p>
Data from: Chronic traffic noise increases food intake and alters gene expression associated with metabolism and disease in bats
<ol> <li>Anthropogenic noise exposure has deleterious effects on the foraging ecology of many animals. However, the effects of chronic anthropogenic noise on food intake and health condition in wildlife remain largely unknown.</li> <li>We tested whether traffic noise exposure over multiple days would change food intake and would have effects on the health of Asian particoloured bats. We broadcast traffic noise to the bats of two noise-exposure groups (group A, 5 bats; group C, 6 bats) and broadcast silence files to the bats of two control groups (group B, 5 bats; group D, 6 bats) for 12 days. We measured the changes in food intake, body weight, and concentration of faecal triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) in groups A and B. We compared the transcriptional profiles in brain, kidney and liver tissues between bats in groups C and D.</li> <li>The bats exposed to traffic noise had a significantly higher daily food intake and a significantly greater body weight than bats in control group during the period of playback. Faecal T3 and T4 were higher in the noise-exposure group after playback had been on for more than one day.</li> <li>We found a total of 169 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between noise-exposure and control groups. Some DEGs related to stress response were up-regulated in the bats exposed to noise. The 169 DEGs were mainly enriched in Gene Ontology (GO) terms associated with metabolism, fundamental cellular processes, stress response and immune response. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways affected by noise exposure were linked with metabolism, disease, apoptosis, autophagy, phagosome and ribosome.</li> </ol> <p><i>Synthesis and applications</i>. Our results suggest that bats exposed to chronic traffic noise while roosting may need more energetic intake and have a greater motivation to forage than others not exposed to noise, probably as a result of a stress response. Furthermore, chronic traffic noise may increase the risk of metabolic dysregulation, immune disorders, and other diseases. Management measures for reducing noise disturbance, for example, implementing sound barriers, are essential.</p>
Data from: Females of a solitary bee reject males to collect food for offspring
The time dedicated to courtship and copulation is the most general cost of mating for females. However, quantitative estimates of this cost and the consequences for female mating behavior have been investigated for only a few model organisms, and mostly under laboratory conditions. We determined the costs of copulations and persistent courtship by males in terms of time for females of the solitary bee Anthrenoides micans. We estimated the rate and duration of male mating behaviors and the consequences for sexual interactions for females with respect to the loss of foraging opportunity in the wild. Males invested most of their time searching for mates and intercepted foraging females every three minutes. Copulas lasted on average 10 times longer than the time females took to resist male mating attempts. Despite the high frequency of these rejections (82%), females spent three-fold more time copulating than rejecting males. Considering the rate of encounters with males and the mean duration of flower visits by females, we estimated that females would perform 64% fewer flower visits/hour if they accepted all copulation attempts. The loss of time is especially significant in the natural habitat of the species, where host cacti blossom for extraordinary short periods of time and females compete with other cacti-specialized bees and conspecifics. Because the offspring production of a female solitary bee depends on its pollen collection capacity, reduced foraging performance directly influences female reproductive success.
