We used data from 109 males in two hunted populations located in Georgia and South Carolina, USA. We assessed how both hunters and natural predators simultaneously influenced the selection of male turkey BTs. We found significant among-individual variation in all movement traits and adjustments in risk-taking and exploration relative to whether hunting was occurring.

Previous research proposed that experiencing intense and similar emotions with other individuals reinforces social bonds. However, several aspects of this phenomenon remain unclear, notably whether social bonding requires the convergence and synchronization of emotions in the group, and whether these effects generalize across positively valenced and negatively valenced emotional contexts. To address these questions, we measured subjective emotional experiences, physiological activity (cardiac, respiratory, electrodermal) and social attitudes in dyads of unacquainted individuals who watched videos in the presence of each other. We manipulated the emotional content of the videos and the type of shared attention between participants, to test for the contribution of interpersonal influence. The results revealed that intense emotions indexed by physiological arousal were associated with the emergence of reciprocal prosocial attitudes within dyads, and that this effect depended on joint attention. We did not observe the convergence and synchronization of emotions within dyads, which suggests that experiencing similar emotions was not necessary for social bonding. We discuss implications of this study for research on collective effervescence and the social consequences of shared experiences.</p>","PeriodicalId":21525,"journal":{"name":"Royal Society Open Science","volume":"11 10","pages":"240048"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11521598/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142547154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

LCS are commonly employed to study fluid mechanical systems where flow tracers are readily observed, but they are broadly applicable to dynamical systems in general. A prevailing class of LCS analyses depends on reliable computation of flow gradients. The finite-time Lyapunov exponent (FTLE), for example, is derived from the Jacobian of the flow map, and the Lagrangian-averaged vorticity deviation (LAVD) relies on velocity gradients. Observational tracer data, however, are typically sparse (e.g. drifters in the ocean), making accurate computation of gradients difficult. While a variety of methods have been developed to address tracer sparsity, they do not provide the same information about the flow as gradient-based approaches. This work proposes a purely Lagrangian method, based on the data-driven machinery of regression, for computing instantaneous and finite-time flow gradients from sparse trajectories. The tool is demonstrated on a common analytical benchmark to provide intuition and demonstrate performance. The method is seen to effectively estimate gradients using data with sparsity representative of observable systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":21525,"journal":{"name":"Royal Society Open Science","volume":"11 10","pages":"240586"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11529625/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142569139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multiple transient T-pulses occurring after social interactions in males can alter behaviour and spatial preferences. We previously found that T-pulses administered at the nest induce male California mice, a biparental and territorial species, to spend more time at the nest likely through conditioned place preferences. We hypothesized that T's reinforcing effects would increase future time by the T-injected males at the boundary and promote territorial defence. Contrary to predictions, T-pulses induced a decrease in male time at the boundary, and instead appeared to promote male territorial/home range expansion, accompanied by shorter sustained vocalizations (SVs) and decreased proportion of three SV bouts. Shorter SVs are associated with aggression in the laboratory. Furthermore, in response to T-male behavioural changes, uninjected female partners decreased boundary time. Our results suggest new functions for socially induced T-pulses, such as extending territorial boundaries/home ranges. Location preferences induced through reinforcing/rewarding mechanisms may be more plastic and dependent on physical and social contexts than previously thought.

A classic example is cetaceans which evolved from terrestrial ancestors to become pelagic swimmers. In doing so, they altered their air-filled sinuses, transitioning some of these spaces to allow for fluctuations in air capacity and storage via soft tissue borders. Other tetrapods independently underwent land-to-sea transitions, but it is unclear if they similarly changed their sinuses. We use computed tomography to study sinus changes in thalattosuchian crocodylomorphs that transformed from land-bound ancestors to become the only known aquatic swimming archosaurs. We find that thalattosuchian braincase sinuses reduced over their transition, similar to cetaceans, but their snout sinuses counterintuitively expanded, distinct from cetaceans, and that both trends were underpinned by high evolutionary rates. We hypothesize that aquatic thalattosuchians were ill suited to deep diving by their snout sinuses, which seem to have remained large to help drain their unusual salt glands. Thus, although convergent in general terms, thalattosuchians and cetaceans were subject to different constraints that shaped their transitions to water. Thalattosuchians attained a stage similar to less pelagic transitional forms in the cetacean lineage (late protocetid-basilosaurid) but did not become further specialized for ocean life.</p>","PeriodicalId":21525,"journal":{"name":"Royal Society Open Science","volume":"11 10","pages":"241272"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11523105/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142547153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reusability spans a spectrum from the straightforward reuse of existing materials to the extraction and adaptation of specific elements, depending on the maturity of the reused research and the research context. Beyond knowledge, understanding is crucial for enabling reusability. Simply reading an article is often insufficient; thus, publishing the underlying data and software is recommended. While the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) facilitate the discovery and legal reuse of data and software through metadata, they fall short of promoting comprehensive understanding. By applying insights from the epistemology of simulation to computational mechanics research cases, we tested our hypothesis that the simulation process involves critical components beyond software and data that are essential to understand for reuse. Our findings indicate that reusability in these cases predominantly involves adjusting existing methodologies-a combination of different process steps from an epistemological perspective. Therefore, it is imperative to document not only learned knowledge but also the decisions regarding adjustments, assumptions and applications that concern the entire simulation process.
