12 p, 1.0 MB Survive or swim : different relationships between migration potential and larval size in three sympatric Mediterranean octocorals / Guizien, Katell (Sorbonne Université. Laboratoire d'Ecogéochimie des Environnements Benthiques) ; Viladrich, Núria (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals) ; Martínez-Quintana, A. (Institut de Ciències del Mar) ; Bramanti, Lorenzo (Sorbonne Université. Laboratoire d'Ecogéochimie des Environnements Benthiques)
Knowledge about migration potential is key to forecasting species distributions in changing environments. For many marine benthic invertebrates, migration happens during reproduction because of larval dispersal. [...]

8 p, 752.8 KB Environmental variation and the evolution of large brains in birds / Sayol, Ferran (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Maspons, Joan (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals) ; Lapiedra i González, Oriol (Harvard University. Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology) ; Iwaniuk, Andrew N. (University of Lethbridge. Department of Neuroscience) ; Székely, Tamás (University of Bath. Department of Biology and Biochemistry) ; Sol, Daniel (Centre de Recerca Ecològica i d'Aplicacions Forestals)
Environmental variability has long been postulated as a major selective force in the evolution of large brains. However, assembling evidence for this hypothesis has proved difficult. Here, by combining brain size information for over 1,200 bird species with remote-sensing analyses a to estimate temporal variation in ecosystem productivity, we show that larger brains (relative to body size) are more likely to occur in species exposed to larger environmental variation throughout their geographic range.

Departament de Medicina i Cirurgia Animals) ; Andaluz Martínez, Anna (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Departament de Medicina i Cirurgia Animals)
The aim of the study was to determine the distribution of different volumes of methylene blue solution injected into the epidural space in anaesthetized pregnant and non-pregnant sheep, to evaluate its cranial distribution and to compare between them. [...]

Design, sampling and data interpretation constitute an important challenge for wildlife surveillance of avian influenza viruses (AIV). The aim of this study was to construct a model to improve and enhance identification in both different periods and locations of avian species likely at high risk of contact with AIV in a specific wetland.

Studies exploring the ecological interactions between avian influenza viruses (AIV), natural hosts and the environment are scarce. Most work has focused on viral survival and transmission under laboratory conditions and through mathematical modelling. [...]
