Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of a Century of Climate Change on Small-Mammal Communities in Yosemite National Park, USA
Craig Moritz,James L. Patton,Chris J. Conroy,Juan L. Parra,Gary C. White,Steven R. Beissinger +5 more
TL;DR: A century-scale view of small-mammal responses to global warming is provided by repeating Grinnell's early–20th century survey across a 3000-meter-elevation gradient that spans Yosemite National Park, California, USA.
Journal ArticleDOI
DIVERSIFICATION OF RAINFOREST FAUNAS: An Integrated Molecular Approach
TL;DR: The current major hypotheses are outlined, predictions relevant to integrated molecular approaches are developed, and the current evidence is evaluated, focusing on central African, Australian, and South American systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Center of mass velocity-position predictions for balance control
Yi-Chung Pai,James L. Patton +1 more
TL;DR: These findings expand the long-held concept that balance is based on CM position limits (i.e. the horizontal CM position has to be confined within the BOS to guarantee stable standing) to a concept based onCM velocity-position limits.
Journal ArticleDOI
The diversification of South American murid rodents: evidence from mitochondrial DNA sequence data for the akodontine tribe
TL;DR: Phylogenetic relationships based on 801 base pairs of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene are examined for eight genera and 28 species of the akodontine tribe of South American murid rodents, finding divergence among genera within the tribe reaches 35% in corrected estimates, a level that is as great as that among representatives of different tribes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid speciation and chromosomal evolution in mammals.
TL;DR: Speciation and chromosomal evolution seem fastest in those genera with species organized into clans or harems or with limited adult vagility and juvenile dispersal, patchy distribution, and strong individual territoriality, consistent with the above hypothesis regarding the evolutionary importance of demes.
