Chronic Noise Exposure has Context-dependent Effects on Nestling Stress Physiology in Tree Swallows (Tachycineta bicolor)
(2020-04-14)Anthropogenic noise is increasing in intensity and scope, resulting in changes to acoustic landscapes and largely negative effects on a range of species. In birds, noise can mask acoustic signals used in a variety of ... -
Improved Design-Oriented Confinement Models for FRP-Wrapped Concrete Cylinders based on Statistical Analyses
(Elsevier, 2015-03-15)This paper introduces improved design-oriented confinement models for cylindrical concrete members wrapped with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites based on a rigorous statistical evaluation of a large database. As ... -
Inferred influence of nutrient availability on the relationship between Sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence and incident irradiance in the Bering Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 2000 Florida Ave., N.W. Washington DC 20009 USA, [mailto:service@agu.org], [URL:http://www.agu.org], 2008-08)This study examines variability in the relationship between Sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence and incident solar irradiance as a potential diagnostic of the nutritional status of phytoplankton. The study site is the ... -
Maternal Microbes: The Effects of Probiotic Treatment on Maternal Care Behaviour, Inflammation and Offspring Stress Outcomes
(2019-08-16)Active maternal care is vital in offspring stress programming, yet the behaviour of a mother towards her offspring can also be influenced by her external environment. It is essential to understand what impacts maternal ... -
Mechanisms Influencing the Timing and Success of Reproductive Migration in a Capital Breeding Semelparous Fish Species, the Sockeye Salmon
(University of Chicago Press, P.O. Box 37005 Chicago IL 60637 USA, [mailto:help@press.uchicago.edu], [URL:http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/], 2009)Two populations of homing sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka; Adams and Chilko) were intercepted in the marine approaches around the northern and southern ends of Vancouver Island (British Columbia, Canada) en route to ... -
PHYSIOLOGY OF MECHANICAL STRESS-INDUCED NEEDLE LOSS IN POSTHARVEST BALSAM FIR (ABIES BALSAMEA L.)
(2018-05-01)Postharvest needle loss in balsam fir, Abies balsamea L., presents a major challenge for the Christmas tree industry. It was hypothesized that postharvest needle abscission is caused by mechanical stresses such as shaking, ... -
Post-Translational Modification of Formate Dehydrogenase, a Stress-Response Protein
(2017-05-11)The ability of a plant to adapt to environmental stress is crucial for its ability to grow, develop to maturity and produce yield. The ubiquitination pathway is a post-translational mechanism that aids plants in producing ... -
Probiotic effects on adult anxiety and systemic inflammation after exposure to Western diet
(2019-08-16)Research shows that the microbiome-gut-brain axis affects physiological systems related to food intake, obesity, anxiety, and inflammation. These disorders are related to stress exposure and stress responding is influenced ... -
Psychophysiological Processes in the Connection Between Perfectionism, Stress, and Emotional Distress
(2018-12-11)The perfectionism-stress connection is frequently studied, yet research in this area often overlooks the role of physiological processes. This research helps address this gap by testing two psychophysiological models of ...
