Ethological risk factors of West nile infection of wild birds in Senegal [PDF]
, 2007 Serological studies performed in 2003, as well as viral isolations demonstrated that West Nile fever (WNF) was endemic in Senegal (West Africa). Large populations of potentially infected birds fly each year from West Africa to Europe.

Assessing the Presence, Pattern, and Environmental Correlates of Seasonal Skin Thickening in Anurans
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Histological sections, like that of the ventral pectoral skin of Lithobates pipiens, were measured to assess variation in skin thickness throughout the year in three North American anuran species. After correcting for individual body size, we test whether skin thickness changes throughout the year and which factors (environment or life history) explain

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract The demand for information about property‐scale natural capital is growing rapidly as producers and supply chains respond to opportunities and pressures to report environmental performance information. Natural Capital Accounting offers promise but agreed methods for farm‐scale accounts are currently lacking.

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.This study demonstrates the ecological value of natural regeneration in the Brazilian Cerrado by analysing the biomass, richness and trophic structure of leaf litter insects across pasture (P), regenerating (R) and native (N) areas. We found that R areas supported insect communities more similar to N habitats than to Ps, with higher richness, greater ...

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Constructed value of information (CVoI) is an expert elicitation decision‐analytic tool used to prioritize sources of uncertainty based on their potential to improve decision outcomes if resolved. Despite increased application of CVoI, the robustness of CVoI prioritization of sources of uncertainty relative to differences in expert elicitation

How do ecologists estimate occupancy in practice?
Ecography, EarlyView.Over 20 years ago, ecologists were introduced to the site occupancy model (SOM) for estimating occupancy rates from detection‐nondetection data. In the ensuing decades, the SOM and its hierarchical modeling extensions have become mainstays of quantitative ecology, and estimating occupancy rates has become one of the most common applications of ...
