The song of male songbirds has the function of repelling rivals and attracting mates. Females often pay attention to certain features within a song, such as the “sexy syllables”, to assess the quality of the singing male. A team of researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology in Seewiesen and the University of Copenhagen, headed by Henrik Brumm, has now discovered that rock sparrows indicate their age and reproductive success with their songs and react to infidelity with a higher song volume. The scientists found that the tempo, pitch and amplitude of song reflect male reproductive success. Cuckolded males regardless of whether they were young or old, sang louder.

That which motivates a football team to committed teamwork could also benefit climate change. The members of a group act in a particularly selfless manner and for the benefit of the group, especially when their community is in competition with others. They are then more likely to accept disadvantages themselves in order to punish members of their group who behave selfishly. A research group headed by the economics researcher Lauri Sääksvuori at the Max Planck Institute of Economics in Jena has gained this insight by conducting investigations involving game theory. This could result in a way of spurring people on to save energy.
