Trained goldfish showed a remarkable ability to accurately estimate the distance that they had swam. The neural circuits that underpin spatial navigation in mammals, birds, and reptiles are well known ...

A way of estimating more accurate distances to the thousands of so-called "planetary nebulae" dispersed across our Galaxy has just been announced by a team of three astronomers based at the University ...

In order to study the influence of distance weight on ore-grade estimation, the inverse distance weighted (IDW) is used to estimate the Ni grade and MgO grade of serpentinite ore based on a ...

Humans use lots of different types of information to make sure we don't get lost. We can look out for familiar landmarks and use our sense of direction, but we can also estimate how far we have walked ...

Humans can estimate distances to sound sources better when they move and exploit auditory motion parallax. The ability to estimate distances to sound sources accurately can be crucial for survival. A ...

Mutualistic systems can experience abrupt and irreversible regime shifts caused by local or global stressors. Despite decades of efforts to understand ecosystem dynamics and determine whether a ...

The neural circuits that underpin spatial navigation in mammals, birds, and reptiles are well known, but it was unclear whether similar structures also existed in fish. This knowledge would allow us ...
