Male bluegill vary in color and behavior relative to their position in a lek by Matthew Peroš, Lakshita Vij, Elana Anavian, Kevin Almeida Arteaga, Fatima Iya Haruna, Aliza Siegman, Wei Fang, Sebastian Gaston Alvarado, Sebastian Gaston Alvarado

“…To test this hypothesis, we quantified color patterns in wild communities of bluegill using computer vision, scored the behavior of lek occupying parental males, and categorically classified lek position as a function of neighboring males. From these data, we show that body coloration and behavior vary with lek position, suggesting a division of labor in the construction and maintenance of grouped territories where courtship and sexual selection take place. …”

U.S. UNIVERSITY WEBSITES AS SPECIFIC MULTIMODAL TEXTS by Svitlana V. Fedorenko, Kateryna B. Sheremeta

“…The methodological basis of the research was a complex of the following methods: analysis (to study multimodal components of the university website as a specific multimodal text), synthesis (to identify the features of the integration of multimodal means of the websites of American universities), observation (for the selection of fragments with verbal means that actualize the visual content and the selection of visual fragments to actualize the verbal content), the method of discourse analysis (to highlight specific fragments of websites that arouse the interest of the authors of this articleб and have a meaningful content), structural method (to analyze the university website as a whole structure, which is provided by separate means of cohesion), functional method (to clarify the pragmatic potential of multimodal elements of the university website, which are means of communication between the university and the reader of its website). …”
