Predation domes: In‐situ field assays to measure predatory behaviours by fish

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 2029-2035, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Biotic interactions such as predation are difficult ecological processes to quantify in the wild. This is especially the case in the marine environment due to logistical difficulties in capturing animal behaviour. Common approaches use aquarium‐based experiments, live‐tethering, or assays with bait as proxies for quantifying predation pressure.

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Conservation science is a morally motivated field, with implicit and explicit values built into its practice. As such, conservationists must engage with conservation ethics to interrogate underlying values. We examine cutting‐edge ecological science and contemporary ethics to revisit two conservation norms that have become dogmatic in the ...

Application of decision tools to ethical analysis in biodiversity conservation

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 2, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Achieving ethically responsible decisions is crucial for the success of biodiversity conservation projects. We adapted the ethical matrix, decision tree, and Bateson's cube to assist in the ethical analysis of complex conservation scenarios by structuring these tools so that they can implement the different value dimensions (environmental ...

Deciphering the Hantavirus Host Range Combining Virology and Species Distribution Models with an Emphasis on the Yellow Pygmy Rice Rat (Oligoryzomys flavescens)

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Hantaviruses are the causative agents of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in the Americas. In Central and South America, 28 hantavirus lineages were associated with different Sigmodontinae rodents. Of these, Lechiguanas hantavirus was initially described as a lineage associated with HPS cases in the central region of Argentina.

Emerging applications of large language models in ecology and conservation science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) mark a major development in artificial intelligence, with potentially transformative implications for ecology and conservation science. Built on advanced deep‐learning architectures, these models can support a wide range of tasks. We reviewed emerging applications of LLMs, drawing on the wider scientific literature
