The tree canopy is an energetically challenging environment to traverse. Along with compliant vegetation, gaps in the canopy can prove energetically costly if they force a route-extending detour. Arbo
Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD) of measurements made from three CT scans repeated after manual manipulation and repositioning of the specimen.
Biomechanical modelling is a powerful tool for quantifying the evolution of functional performance in extinct animals to understand key anatomical innovations and selective pressures driving major e
The PyDSTool software environment is designed to develop, simulate, and analyze dynamical systems models, particularly for biological applications. Unlike the engineering application focus and graphic
The log-evidence computed by nested sampling for each model using the 25 noisy data points shown as diamonds in Figure 4. Using the interpretation given by Kass and Raftery [54] the data provide very
