Can accelerometry be used to distinguish between flight types in soaring birds?
(BioMed Central, 2015-09)
Background: Accelerometry has been used to identify behaviours through the quantification of body posture and motion for a range of species moving in different media. This technique has not been applied to flight behaviours ...
Body size and flight distance in stingless bees (Hymenoptera: Meliponini): inference of flight range and possible ecological implications
(Instituto Internacional de Ecologia, 2004-08-01)
Neste trabalho analisamos as implicações espaciais da distância máxima de vôo para algumas espécies de meliponíneos. Os dados sugerem que a distância máxima de vôo em meliponíneos está relacionada ao tamanho do corpo, ...

NOC-9, a selective nitric oxide donor, induces flight reactions in the dorsolateral periaqueductal gray of rats by activating soluble guanylate cyclase
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2009)
Previous studies have showed that SIN-1, a nitric oxide (NO) donor, injected into the dorsolateral column of the periaqueductal gray (dlPAG) induces flight reactions. This drug, however, can also produce peroxynitrite, ...

The challenges of estimating the distribution of flight heights from telemetry or altimetry data
(BioMed Central, 2020-02)
Global positioning systems (GPS) and altimeters are increasingly used to monitor vertical space use by aerial species, a key aspect of their ecological niche, that we need to know to manage our own use of the airspace, and ...
Biomechanical investigations on glider maniraptoriformesEstudos biomecânicos em maniraptoriformes planadores
(2021-08-06)
Many adaptations are necessary to a terrestrial cursorial animal to develop full flying ability. The capability of glide, even being energetically simpler, it still demands a series of morphological adaptations to develop ...
The flight response impairs cytoprotective mechanisms by activating the insulin pathway
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-08-28)
An animal’s stress response requires different adaptive strategies depending on the nature and duration of the stressor. Whereas acute stressors, such as predation, induce a rapid and energy-demanding fight-or-flight ...
