To fully understand how diving seabirds and marine mammals balance the potentially
conflicting demands of holding their breath while living their lives underwater (and …

Animal-borne sensors that can record and transmit data (“biologgers”) are becoming smaller
and more capable at a rapid pace. Biologgers have provided enormous insight into the …

Electronic telemetry devices have enabled many novel and important data collection and
experimental opportunities for difficult to observe species. Externally attached devices have …

Pinnipeds spend large portions of their lives at sea, submerged, or hauled-out on land, often
on remote off-shore islands. This fundamentally limits access by researchers to critical parts …

Animal-borne telemetry devices have become a popular and valuable means for studying
the cryptic lives of cetaceans. Evaluating the effect of capture, handling and tagging …

Bio‐loggers are miniaturized autonomous devices that record quantitative data on the state
of free‐ranging animals (eg behavior, position and physiology) and their natural …

OBJECTIVE: LIM homeobox domain 6 (LHX6) is emerging as a critical regulator in
carcinogenesis and tumor progression. The previous study has reported the expression and …

Background A utilization distribution quantifies the temporal and spatial probability of space
use for individuals or populations. These patterns in movement arise from individuals' …

Background Pinnipeds, including many phocid species of concern, are inaccessible and
difficult to monitor for extended periods using conventional, externally attached telemetry …
