We use a gel-based profilometry system manufactured by GelSight Inc. (http://www.gelsight.com/). Image: Dylan Wainwright.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/white-marlin1.jpgWhite MarlinThis image shows the skin texture of the white marlin. Although most fish only have one type of bony structure in their skin (scales), white marlin have two. The first are larger, teardrop shaped scales with forked ends that are embedded in the dermis – they’re visible as larger impressions above. The second bony structure present on white marline skin are smaller peaks that are attached to the skin surface and look like small grains in the images above. Understanding these structures is an important step to understanding the function of marlin skin and the reasons behind these modifications (for more information on these scales see ‘Comparative morphology of the scales of roundscale spearfish Tetrapturus georgii and white marlin Kajikia albida’ by Loose et al. - http://bit.ly/2Bq5UBM). Images: Dylan Wainwright and public domain image. https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/polypterus-endlicheri1.jpgPolypterus endlicheriThe three-dimensional topography data recovered by gel-based profilometry can help you make unique observations on the surface texture of biological surfaces, such as the armor-like ganoid scales of Polypterus endlicheri (see ‘Materials design principles of ancient fish armour’ by Bruet et al. http://go.nature.com/2ivXi8I for more information on poylpterus armor). Using software for surface analysis, height profile lines can be generated (shown above), along with a variety of roughness and surface measurements (not shown). This topographic data is crucial for understanding how biological surfaces interact with their environments. Images: Dylan Wainwright and George Albert Boulenger.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/lined-gliding-lizard1.jpgLined gliding lizardAbove we have both a greyscale image and a height map from the hand of a Sulawesi lined gliding lizard (Draco splinotus). For two or one-dimensional measurements, greyscale images can be valuable because of their high contrast. Gel-based profilometry produces grayscale images at a range of sizes, comparable to low to medium magnification scanning electron microscopy. Images: Dylan Wainwright and A.S.Kono (http://bit.ly/2BCFY6W). https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/leopard-shark1.jpgLeopard SharkThe denticles from the lateral flank of a leopard shark (Triakis semifasciata) were imaged and you can see the topographic reconstruction above. Denticles have been shown to increase swimming performance and understanding their surface topography is crucial for connecting the form of shark denticles to hydrodynamic function (see ‘The hydrodynamic function of shark skin and two biomimetic applications’ by Oeffner and Lauder, for example). Images: Dylan Wainwright and Tom Hilton (http://bit.ly/2BpW3vv). https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/hand1.jpgHandGel-based profilometry is non-invasive and only needs pressure to be applied to the surface of interest to get the image. Above is the surface topography of the back of a human hand. The pores are evident as small blue regions with low elevation. Long flexible structures like hairs will be pressed flat by the sampling gel, as seen in the hairs above. Image: Dylan Wainwright.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/greyscale1.jpgGreyscaleThe six greyscale photographs in this image are of the scales from the Hawaiian dascyllus (Dascyllus albisella). Each image has a different lighting angle and all six will be used to reconstruct the surface topography on this patch of scales. Imaging a surface is as fast as positioning the specimen and taking six photographs. No specimen preparation is required – this method can be done on clear, shiny, wet, and slimy surfaces! Images: Dylan Wainwright and the Freshwater and Marine Image Bank.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/dragonfly1.jpgDragonflyThis is the forewing of a dragonfly. The wing venation pattern is obvious using this technique, and small spines are present on many of the veins, especially the distal veins towards the wing tip. We produced this image without any special preparation of the subject and without damaging these delicate wings. Images: Dylan Wainwright and Wellcome Library, London (http://bit.ly/2AkcT1J). https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/dascyllus-albisella1.jpgDascyllus albisellaIn this picture you can see the surface topography of Dascyllus albisella, reconstructed from the six greyscale images in the previous image. This image captures the lateral line, visible at the top of the image as a row of scales connected by a canal. Heights on this surface are shown as colours: the warmer the colours (oranges and reds), the higher the heights. The height range of this surface is just over 200 microns – the highest parts of the surface are over 200 microns higher than the lowest . Images: Dylan Wainwright and the Freshwater and Marine Image Bank.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/ctenii1.jpgCteniiEach reconstructed surface is made up of over 18 million three-dimensional points (x, y, and z). This allows for a substantial amount of digital zoom with the ability to still recover surface features. Above is an enlarged view of the posterior margin of a scale from Dascyllus albisella from the same image as the previous two slides. The posterior margin of this scale is made of ctenii, which are small interlocking spines that are present on the scales of many species of fish. Those at the margin are the longest and newest, with older ctenii becoming shortened and serving as a scaffold to interlock with newer ones.

Whole bulk samples with hundreds of organisms can be identified at once – often to species level – which can improve the accuracy of assessments.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/3-img_20150407_175515507-1.jpg3 IMG_20150407_175515507 (1)Invertebrates are collected using standardised field sampling protocols and usually identified based on their morphology. The taxa lists obtained this way are then used to assess stream water quality based on associated bioindication values of the individual taxa. But identifying juvenile invertebrates by morphology isn’t possible for all collected taxa.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/2_a_dsc7028.jpg2_A_DSC7028One macroinvertebrate sample can contain hundreds or even thousands of specimens.2017-05-09T09:48:46+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/05/08/new-associate-editors-15/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/graziella-iossa1.jpegGraziella Iossahttps://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/daniele-silvestro.jpgDaniele Silvestrohttps://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/theoni-photopoulou.jpgTheoni Photopoulouhttps://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/graziella-iossa.jpegGraziella Iossahttps://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/simon-jarman.jpgSimon Jarman2017-05-08T16:18:55+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/05/08/adna-neolithic-forests/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/maxpixel-freegreatpicture-com-white-fir-silver-fir-pine-needles-fir-tannenzweig-11313.jpgWhite Fir Silver Fir Pine Needles Fir Tannenzweighttps://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/chestnut-tree-1640091_640.jpgchestnut-tree-1640091_640https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/576px-dinaric_calcareous_silver_fir_forests_bijela_gora.jpg576px-Dinaric_calcareous_silver_fir_forests_Bijela_gora© Orjen2017-05-08T15:58:31+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/05/05/issue-8-5/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/issue-8-5-cover_invertebrates.jpgIssue 8.5 Cover_Invertebrates© Vasco Elbrecht2017-05-05T14:37:38+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/05/02/historical-land-use-maps/2017-05-02T09:31:33+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/04/25/world-penguin-day/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image-7.jpgImage 7https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image-6.jpgImage 6https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image-5.jpgImage 5https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image-2.jpgImage 2Distribution of Eastern Yellow Robins of two mitochondrial lineageshttps://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image-4.pngImage 4https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image-3.jpgImage 3https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/image-1.jpgImage 12017-04-25T09:41:02+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/04/19/measuring-biodiversity-individuals/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/primary-forest.jpgPrimary ForestPrimary forest habitat, Sabah, Malaysian Borneohttps://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/logged-forest-e1492593442954.jpgLogged ForestSelectively-logged forest, Sabah, Malaysian Borneo.

Many models can be tested such as step-change, linear, asymptotic or logistic models – whatever that seems appropriate. This coral reef application was just one of the many possibilities to measure environmental impacts that our tool can reveal when applied to BACIPS data.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/8.jpg8This method is also well suited to forest ecosystems, for example to study the effect of increasing tourist visitation on this ancient Araucaria (Araucaria araucana) forest in Chile.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/7.jpg7We have also applied it to other study contexts – such as the effect of highway construction on the abundance of birds. Here is an Andean condor (Vultur gryphus) flying away after the passage of a car.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/5.jpg5Here, a scientist is counting fish where a MPA will be implemented using a Diver-Operated Video system. Repeated assessments before enforcement provide an estimate of the spatial variability between the Control and Impact sites in the absence of an effect of the MPA.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/3.jpg3Recurrent disturbances such as Crown-of-Thorns Starfish (Acanthaster planci) outbreaks are important drivers of declines and recoveries in coral reef ecosystems. How can we reliably estimate the effect of local human interventions (for example marine protected areas, MPAs) amid such noise?https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/2.jpg2Unlike classic experimental studies like this one, environmental impacts are not (and often should not) be replicated. https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/1.jpg1Moorea is an island located in French Polynesia. It’s known for its extraordinary marine biodiversity, but also for the great, natural spatial and temporal variability due to recurrent external forces. This place, and the statistical challenges it represents, has provided us with a wealth of inspiration in formulating our Progressive-Change BACIPS approach to environmental impact assessment.2017-03-17T11:03:19+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/03/15/sequence-based-identification-biodiversity/2017-03-15T10:25:55+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/03/14/issue-8-3/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/issue-8-3-cover_green-turtle.jpgIssue 8.3 Cover_Green Turtle2017-03-14T11:02:10+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/03/06/women-in-ecological-network-research/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/jennifer-dunne.jpgJennifer DunneTaken from Dunne et al.

In total, we received accelerometer data from four blacktip reef sharks. We calculated overall dynamic body acceleration and used this metric as a proxy for general activity levels. The hidden Markov model was able to distinguish between high level and low level activity, allowing us to understand when the shark was more active.

These are normally hatch during mid-winter and stay on the nest for around 90 days. The parents provision the chick during this time, delivering prey to the nest. Rock hyrax is a frequent item on the menu, as seen here. Having concurred data from accelerometers and nest cameras for the same bird could allow for activity level to be linked to successful prey acquisition or prey type.

Updrafts on cliff faces likely aid soaring flight. Away from cliffs eagles rely on thermal lift to achieve low cost flights. We found that birds were more likely to remain in an active state at higher wind speeds, which are known to aid soaring flight especially over ridges.

Especially during nest building and incubation, birds can spend quite a bit of time walking around on the nest, this is the type of behaviour that is likely captured by the low activity state described in the paper. (© Megan Murgatroyd)https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/01_eagles-on-rock_megan-murgatroyd.jpgEagles on the RocksVerreaux’s eagles intersperse their flights with periods of perching, which can be detected by low values of acceleration. Eagles like to perch on rocky outcrops and are usually found together. Both perching and flying behaviours persist for periods of time, e.g. birds can perch for 10min between flights of 45min, and this is explicitly taken into account by virtue of the structure of HMMs. (© Megan Murgatroyd)2017-02-15T11:10:01+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/02/13/issue-8-2/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/mee3_v8_i2_oc_rev.jpgmee3_v8_i2_oc_rev2017-02-13T10:10:44+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/02/02/biomonitoring-pollution-in-wetlands/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/sampling-instructions.jpgsampling-instructionsBird feather samples can be used to monitor bioaccumulation of trace element concentrationshttps://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/ravenna-lagoon-and-waterbirds-e1486046556322.jpgravenna-lagoon-and-waterbirdsWetlands tend to accumulate considerable anthropogenic pollution.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/flamiengos-breeding-colony-at-fuente-de-piedra-lagoon-m-rendon_martos.jpgflamiengos-breeding-colony-at-fuente-de-piedra-lagoon-m-rendon_martosGreater flamingo colony in Fuente de Piedra southern Spain.2017-02-02T15:12:02+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/01/27/sounding-out-bush-crickets/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/640px-tettigonia_viridissima_great_green_bush-cricket_arnhem_the_netherlands.jpg640px-tettigonia_viridissima_great_green_bush-cricket_arnhem_the_netherlandsGreat green bush-cricket. https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/cricket.jpgcricketSpeckled Bush-cricket © Tom Housley 2017-02-03T07:57:50+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/01/18/issue-8-1/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/issue-8-1-cover_trupchun-web.jpgissue-8-1-cover_trupchun-web2017-01-18T11:59:13+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2017/01/16/lichens-and-the-health-of-ecosystems/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/dsc_6901.jpgdsc_6901Letharia vulpina (yellow), Bryoria sp.

The left-hand cube shows the total volume of cattle dung produced in Finland per year (ca 4 billion kg of dung; Statue of Liberty superimposed for comparison). Focusing on the dung deposited in pastures, we estimated the relative fractions (middle cubes) disappearing due to evaporation of water and microbial activity alone (top), decomposing through the action of invertebrates (centre), and remaining after two months (bottom), respectively. The lighter box refers to the situation in northernmost Finland, the darker cube to southernmost Finland. Of the dung decomposed by invertebrates, dor beetles account for 61%, (right-hand sub-cube, centre) ) earthworms for 28% (bottom) and dung dwelling Aphodius-species for 11% (top), respectively.

There’s a striking colour difference in UV. The whole flower looks yellow to us, however the petals reflect UV strongly and absorb blue (so look purple in this image), while the pollen in the centre doesn’t reflect UV, so looks red. This makes the flower look much more colourful to bees than ourselves.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/dandelion.jpgDandelionDandelion as seen to human vision (left), and honeybee vision (right).

The numbers on the contours (the concentric ellipses) are the probability densities that encompass 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 0.9 of the volume under the bivariate normal distribution. Each species occurs at the site when the corresponding random variate is greater than 0. Thus, species 1 (the tree frog) occurs when Zi1 is greater than zero (the right-hand quadrants), and species 2 (the toad) occurs when Zi2 is greater than zero (the upper quadrants). The joint probabilities of occurrence are indicated by the values in the corners. In all cases shown, the probability of occurrence of species 1 is 0.69 (the sum of the probabilities in the right-hand quadrants) because the mean of Zi1 remains unchanged. Similarly, the probability of occurrence of species 2 remains 0.16 because the mean of Zi2 remains unchanged. The correlation changes the probabilities of co-occurrence, but not the unconditional probabilities of occurrence for each species.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/probitlatentrescaled2.jpgCompared to the previous figure, the mean and standard deviation of the latent variable for the tree frog have changed by the same proportion. Therefore, the probability that the latent variable exceeds zero (the probability of presence) is unchanged.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/allfrogs1.jpgTwo frog species, each occurring in two of four sites. In the left-hand figure, they occur independently of each other. In the middle, they only occur together, and in the right-hand figure they occur exclusively of each other.https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/probitlatent.jpgThe probability of occurrence of two frog species (j = 1, the tree frog, or j = 2, the toad) at a particular site i depicted using probability density functions of the latent normal variate Zij. The species would occur at the site when the latent random variable, which has a standard deviation of 1, is greater than 0. Thus, the means of the latent variables determine the probability of occurrence of each species, which equal the shaded areas under the density functions greater than zero (0.69 and 0.16). These representations of individual species ignore patterns of co-occurrence.2014-05-20T08:31:41+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2014/05/19/notre-dame-study-reveals-that-particle-size-matters-for-environmental-dna-monitoring/2014-05-19T09:27:20+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2014/05/13/criminal-profiling-technique-targets-killer-diseases/2014-05-13T14:58:10+00:00monthlyhttps://methodsblog.com/2014/04/25/uv-radiation-data-to-help-ecological-research/https://methodsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/fig-2.jpgfig
