communication in the third dimension: song perch height of rivals affects singing response in nightingales.many animals use long-range signals to compete over mates and resources. optimal transmission can be achieved by choosing efficient signals, or by choosing adequate signalling perches and song posts. high signalling perches benefit sound transmission and reception, but may be more risky due to exposure to airborne predators. perch height could thus reflect male quality, with individuals signalling at higher perches appearing as more threatening to rivals. using playbacks on nightingales (luscini ...201222448215

ecological character displacement in the face of gene flow: evidence from two species of nightingales.ecological character displacement is a process of phenotypic differentiation of sympatric populations caused by interspecific competition. such differentiation could facilitate speciation by enhancing reproductive isolation between incipient species, although empirical evidence for it at early stages of divergence when gene flow still occurs between the species is relatively scarce. here we studied patterns of morphological variation in sympatric and allopatric populations of two hybridizing spe ...201121609448

integrating healthcare design research into practice: setting a new standard of practice.it seems safe to conclude that nearly 150 years ago, "the lady with the lamp," florence nightingale, set a course that practice-based healthcare researchers continue to follow today. in her book, notes on nursing (1860), nightingale identified light, ventilation, noise, and sanitation as elements of the environment that affected the well-being of soldiers in her care. today, we attempt to study these same relationships: those that exist between the built environment of healthcare settings, and t ...201021162432
