The challenge of novel abiotic conditions for species undergoing climate‐induced range shifts
AR Spence, MW Tingley - Ecography, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Coincident with recent global warming, species have shifted their geographic distributions to
cooler environments, generally by moving along thermal axes to higher latitudes, higher …

Metabolic constraint imposes tradeoff between body size and number of brain neurons in human evolution
K Fonseca-Azevedo… - Proceedings of the …, 2012 - National Acad Sciences
Despite a general trend for larger mammals to have larger brains, humans are the primates
with the largest brain and number of neurons, but not the largest body mass. Why are great …

Fecal cortisol levels in free-ranging female chacma baboons: relationship to dominance, reproductive state and environmental factors
Savannah baboons are one of the few mammalian species that do not exhibit seasonal
reproduction patterns and are therefore ideally suited to study the effect of female …

The effect of new alpha males on female stress in free-ranging baboons
In chacma baboons, Papio hamadryas ursinus, young adult males often rise to the top of the
dominance hierarchy shortly after immigrating to a new group. Such events are potentially …
