title: Modulating captive mammalian social behavior: A scoping review on olfactory treatments

description: &lt;p&gt;Many species use olfaction as a primary form of communication. Because of this, odor signals could be a useful tool to improve captive animal welfare by reducing aggression and promoting socio-positive behavior. However, to fully gauge the potential benefits of odor manipulations, the quality of existing literature must first be evaluated. Therefore, a systematic search and scoping review was conducted to summarize prevalent methods, treatment outcomes, and modulating factors in existing literature on the effect of mammalian, intraspecies odors on non-reproductive social behavior. Results from a systematic search of three databases were included if they were published in a peer reviewed journal, used a terrestrial mammalian species, and contained original data evaluating how an odor signal from the subject species directly affected non-reproductive social behavior. All articles were screened by two researchers, data were extracted by one, and reporting quality was assessed by both using the SYRCLE risk of bias tool. Sixty-three articles were included based on this criteria. Most subjects were sexually mature, male rodents. The most common odor treatment originated from urine and aggressive behavior was measured most often. Overall, urine and saliva treatments had a variable effect on aggression, while urine most often increased scent marking and social investigation behavior. Concerningly, most articles showed unclear or high risk of bias. Data from this review highlights a need for additional research on how odor signals from sources other than urine affect behavior and how socio-positive behaviors are affected in general. Further, it emphasizes the need for more transparent reporting as the current body of literature makes it difficult to determine each experiment&rsquo;s quality and how much weight it should be given when interpreting outcomes pertaining to our overall understanding of olfactory communication.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This dataset contains the individual tables used to summarize the article information from this review, as well as the database used for data organization.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Home cage measures of Alzheimer's disease in the rTg4510 mouse model

description: &lt;p&gt;Alzheimer&#39;s disease affects an array of activities in patients&#39; daily lives but measures other than memory are rarely evaluated in animal models. Home cage behavior, however, may provide an opportunity to back translate a variety of measures seen in human disease progression to animal models, providing external and face validity. The aim of this study was to evaluate if home cage measures could indicate disease in the rTg4510 mouse model. We hypothesized that sleep, nesting, and smell discrimination would be altered in mutant mice. Thirty-two transgenic mice were used in a Latin square design of four genotypes x both sexes x two diets. Half the mice received a doxycycline diet to suppress tauopathy and evaluate tau severity on various measures. At 8-, 12-, and 16-weeks old, 24 h activity/sleep patterns, nest complexity, and odor discrimination were measured. After 16-weeks, tau concentration in the brain was quantified.  Mutant mice had increased tau concentration in brain tissue, but it was reduced by the doxycycline diet. However, only nest complexity was different between mutant mice and controls. Overall, tauopathy in rTg4510 mice does seem to affect these commonly observed symptoms in human patients. However, while running this study, a report showed that the rTg4510 mutant phenotype is not caused by the mutation itself, but confounding factors from transgene insertion. Combined with report findings and our data, the rTg4510 model may not be an ideal model for all aspects of human Alzheimer&#39;s disease.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Who's the boss? Assessing convergent validity of aggression based dominance measures in male laboratory mice, Mus Musculus

description: &lt;p&gt;Aggression among group housed male mice continues to challenge laboratory animal researchers because mitigation strategies are generally applied at the cage level without a good understanding of how it affects the dominance hierarchy. Aggression within a group is typically displayed by the dominant mouse targeting lower ranking subordinates; thus, the strategies for preventing aggression may be more successful if applied specifically to the dominant mouse. Unfortunately, dominance rank is often not assessed because of time intensive observations or tests. Several correlates of dominance status have been identified, but none have been directly compared to home cage behavior in standard housing. This study assessed the convergent validity of three dominance correlates (urinary darcin, tube test score, preputial gland to body length ratio) with wound severity and rankings based on home cage behavior, using factor analysis. Discriminant validity with open field measures was assessed to determine if tube test scores are independent of anxiety. Cages were equally split between SJL and albino C57BL/6 strains and group sizes of 3 or 5 (N = 24). Home cage behavior was observed during the first week, and dominance measures were recorded over the second. After controlling for strain and group size, darcin and preputial ratio had strong loadings on the same factor, which was a significant predictor of home cage ranking showing strong convergent validity. Tube test scores were not significantly impacted by open field data, showing discriminant validity. Social network analysis revealed that despotic power structures were prevalent, aggressors were typically more active and rested away from cagemates, and the amount of social investigation and aggression performed by an individual were highly correlated. Data from this study show that darcin and preputial ratio are representative of home cage aggression and provide further insight into individual behavior patterns in group housed male mice.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Titrating the preferences of altered lighting against temperature in female CD-1 laboratory mice, Mus musculus

description: &lt;p&gt;Aspects of the laboratory are aversive to mice, such as being housed under bright lights and at temperatures below their thermal comfort, causing stress and poor welfare. While murine thermal preferences are well understood, light preferences in mice are under studied. To address this gap, reduced light intensity was titrated against varying temperatures. We hypothesized that mice would choose the red-tinted cage when offered temperatures below 30 ◦C but would choose the clear-heated cage when around 30 ◦C. Seven pairs of female CD-1 mice were randomly allocated to two connected cages (a red-tinted cage and a clear cage with a heated hot spot) for eight days, each containing 8 g of nesting material. Every 48 h, the clear, hot spot cage temperature was changed to 20, 24, 28, or 32 ◦C, in a random order, without repetition. Over the 8-day study, all cages experienced the 4 treatments for 2 days each. After an initial 24 h of exposure, nest complexity was scored, the amount of nesting material was weighed in each cage, and inactive behavior was observed. Temperature did not significantly alter nest weights; however, it did impact nest scores, with more complex nests being built in the red cage when 20&ndash;28 ◦C were available. Further, mice spent more time in the red-tinted cage when they had access to 20 and 24 ◦C. These temperatures do not outweigh the preference for lighting conditions, thus aversion to typical laboratory lighting may be more important than previously assumed.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Compounds from plantar foot sweat, nesting material, and urine show strain patterns associated with agonistic and affiliative behaviors in group housed male mice, Mus musculus

description: &lt;p&gt;Excessive home cage aggression often results in severe injury and subsequent premature euthanasia of male laboratory mice. Aggression can be reduced by transferring used nesting material during cage cleaning, which is thought to contain aggression appeasing odors from the plantar sweat glands. However, neither the composition of plantar sweat nor the deposits on used nesting material have been evaluated. The aims of this study were to (1) identify and quantify volatile compounds deposited in the nest site and (2) determine if nest and sweat compounds correlate with social behavior. Home cage aggression and affiliative behavior were evaluated in 3 strains: SJL, C57BL/6N, and A/J. Individual social rank was assessed via the tube test, because ranking may influence compound levels. Sweat and urine from the dominant and subordinate mouse in each cage, plus cage level nest samples were analyzed for volatile compound content using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Behavior data and odors from the nest, sweat, and urine were statistically analyzed with separate principal component analyses (PCA). Significant components, from each sample analysis, and strain were run in mixed models to test if odors were associated with behavior. Aggressive and affiliative behaviors were primarily impacted by strain. However, compound PCs were also impacted by strain, showing that strain accounts for any relationship between odors and behavior. C57BL/6N cages displayed the most allo-grooming behavior and had high scores on sweat PC1. SJL cages displayed the most aggression, with high scores on urine PC2 and low scores on nest PC1. These data show that certain compounds in nesting material, urine, and sweat display strain specific patterns which match strain specific behavior patterns. These results provide preliminary information about the connection between home cage compounds and behavior. Salient compounds will be candidates for future controlled studies to determine their direct effect on mouse social behavior.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Data and code for Habitat selection in a recovering bobcat (Lynx rufus) population

description: &lt;p&gt;Understanding habitat selection of top predators is critical to predict their impacts on ecological communities and interactions with humans, particularly in recovering populations. We analyzed habitat selection in a recovering population of bobcats (&lt;em&gt;Lynx rufus&lt;/em&gt;) in south-central Indiana using a Random Forest model. We trapped and tracked 27 bobcats (14 males, 13 females) from December 1998 to April 2006 using very high frequency (VHF) radio telemetry methods and estimated locations from triangulations. Our Random Forest model highlighted complex non-linear patterns and revealed that most shifts in habitat use occurred within 1 km of the edge of each habitat type. These results largely supported previous studies in the Midwest and across North America but also produced refinements of bobcat habitat use in our system, particularly at habitat boundaries. Refined models of habitat selection by carnivores enable improved prediction of the most suitable habitat for recovering populations and provides useful information for conservation. We provide data and code to run habitat selection by bobcats in south-central Indiana using Random Forest, as an example for applications to other animals and ecosystems. &lt;/p&gt;

title: Evaluating the effects of precipitation and evapotranspiration on soil moisture variability

description: &lt;p&gt;The effects of precipitation (Pr) and evapotranspiration (ET) on soil moisture play an essential role in the land-atmosphere system. Here we evaluate multimodel differences of these effects within the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) compared to Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) products in the frequency domain. The variability of surface soil moisture (SSM), Pr, and ET within three frequency bands (7 ~ 30 days, 30 ~ 90 days, and 90 ~ 365 days) after normalization is quantified using Fourier transform. We then analyze the impact of ET and Pr on SSM variability based on the transfer function assuming a linear time-invariant (LTI) system. For the simulated effects of ET and Pr on SSM variability, models underestimate them in the two higher frequency bands and overestimate them in the lowest frequency band but show better estimates in transitional zones between dry and wet climates. Besides, the effects on SSM by Pr and ET are found to be different across the three frequency bands, and models underestimate the one of Pr and ET as the dominant factor controlling SSM variability in each frequency band. This study identifies the spatiotemporal distribution of the CMIP5 model deficiencies in simulating ET and Pr effects on SSM. Overcoming these deficiencies could improve the interpretability and predictability of Earth system models in simulating interactions among the three variables.&lt;/p&gt;

title: Surface boundary layer turbulence measurements: Purdue Agronomy Center for Research and Education

description: &lt;p&gt;Dataset includes measurements of atmospheric turbulence made with 3-diemnsional sonic anemometers over 9 years (2013-2021) over level agricultural cropped land at 40.495 N -86.99 W. Measurements were made in support of micrometeorological gas exchange research projects.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;The RM Young 91000 3 dimensional sonic anemometers sampled the wind at 16Hz.&lt;/li&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;&quot;Low&quot; sonic measurements were made at 2.5 m above ground level.&lt;/li&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;&quot;High&quot; sonic measurements were made at 5.3 m above ground level.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Turbulence measurement records consist of turbulence statistics (variances and covariances of 3 orthogonal wind components and sonic temperature) at 100s intervals.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
 &lt;li&gt;Turbulence statistics are provided for (1) valid data, (2) invalid data due to spike values (greater than 3 standard deviations of the 100s mean), and (3) invalid data due to more than 10% of the measurements in the 100s period missing due to optical path obstruction. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Temporal gaps in measurements exist over the 9-year period due to instrument and communications failures as well as gaps due to no experimental need for the measurements.  Note that missing measurement periods do not have Date/Time record placeholders in the dataset.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Additional files included:&lt;/p&gt;
