Home and away: allometry and climate drive morphology of European rabbits in their native and introduced range

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions shape phenotypic evolution by driving adaptations that optimise organismal function. Invasive species provide valuable systems to study these processes, as they often encounter novel climatic conditions in their introduced ranges. The European rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus, native to the Iberian Peninsula, has established populations

Forecasting the impact of food‐provisioning and other stressors on a marine top‐predator population

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Wildlife tourism can alter animal behavior, affect vital rates and diminish population viability but its impact in the context of other human‐ and environmental disturbances, remain largely unstudied. Using simulation models and leveraging a robust long‐term dataset spanning eight years, we evaluated the contribution of wildlife feeding, in the context

Synthesis of Poly(Itaconate)s With High Monomer Conversion Applying Emulsion Polymerization

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1284-1296, 15 March 2025.
Itaconic acid and its derivatives are a promising and bio‐based substitute for oil‐based polymers such as acrylates. In this study, the optimization of polymerization of itaconic acid esters is described by applying emulsion polymerization leading to high reaction conversions and low residual monomer contents. ABSTRACT Itaconic acid and its derivatives

Dust Storm Event of February 2019 in Central and East Coast of Australia and Evidence of Long-Range Transport to New Zealand and Antarctica

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
Between 11 and 15 February 2019, a dust storm originating in Central Australia with persistent westerly and south westerly winds caused high particle concentrations at many sites in the state of New South Wales (NSW); both inland and along the coast. The

Depositional and Hydrological Relationships Between Buried Dead Ice and the Active Layer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: A Study of Sediment Geochemistry and Cation Concentrations

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

Performance Test of Infrasound Sensor in Low-temperature Environment ─ Potential for Application in Antarctic Observation ─

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 2023
For infrasound monitoring in Antarctica, there is a need for infrasound sensors with low power consumption and high resistance to low-temperature environments. A new-type infrasound sensor (TYPE7744N/5002A) manufactured by ACO Co., Ltd.

Scaling turbulence drives the general circulation

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The NOAA Gulfstream SP4, which deployed the GPS dropsondes over the NE Pacific Ocean as part of the Winter Storms Project during the January–March periods of 2004, 2005 and 2006. Abstract Statistical multifractal analysis of airborne and dropsonde observations is used to show that persistence of velocity after molecular collisions breaks the continuous

Semi‐automated seal detection on the Western Antarctic Peninsula: an unsupervised machine learning approach for detecting ice seals in aerial survey data

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents a semi‐automated, rule‐based image analysis pipeline to detect ice seals in aerial surveys of the Western Antarctic Peninsula during an unusually low sea ice year. By using simple hierarchical clustering instead of deep learning, the method substantially reduced human annotation effort while achieving 82% recall, identifying 758 ...

Historical remote sensing highlights long‐term persistence of Emperor Penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) colonies

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Remote sensing can reveal population dynamics of Antarctic penguin colonies. In this study, we analyze emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) guano stains in remote sensing imagery and discover colony presence predating known records for 18 colonies across Antarctica.
