The interaction between predator and prey is an evolutionary arms race, for which early
detection by either party is often the key to success. In aquatic ecosystems, olfaction is an …

The importance of chemical cues in predator-prey interactions has recently received
increasing attention from ecologists. The sources of chemicals to which prey species …

“A rigorous, in-depth guide to the history, philosophy, and scientific exploration of this
widespread emotional state...[LeDoux] offers a magisterial review of the role of mind and …

The aquatic environment is well suited for the transmission of chemical information. Aquatic
animals have evolved highly sensitive receptors for detecting these cues. Here, I review …

The northern pike (Esox lucius) is a selective and important predator in lake ecosystems.
Prey size in pike is limited by pike gape size, which is a linear function of pike body length …

An individual's behaviour patterns can be conceptualized as a series of threat‐sensitive
trade‐offs between ambient predation pressure and a suite of fitness‐related activities, such …

Intraspecific food competition exerts powerful selective forces on all animals; successful
foragers thrive relative to weaker conspecifics. Understanding competition is therefore …

Changes in olfactory-mediated behaviour caused by elevated CO2 levels in the ocean could
affect recruitment to reef fish populations because larval fish become more vulnerable to …

In this study we tested whether brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) can learn to recognise
predators through releaser-induced recognition learning and whether this learning …

Whatever theory may be advanced to explain diurnal migration, the underlying reactions
involved must be demonstrated conc-sively in the laboratory before the explanation can be …
