The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Fine‐scale population variables better explain roadkill patterns in natterjack toads (Epidalea calamita) than habitat proxies, with mortality driven mainly by local abundance, reduced by roadside embankments, and decreasing as the season advanced. Despite high roadkills, population viability analyses indicate no immediate extinction risk under current ...

Comfort in the canopy: How urban treescapes affect human thermal comfort in a temperate climate
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract People living in urban centres are exposed to higher levels of heat stress than those living outside of these areas; this is intensified by the urban heat island effect. Heat stress is a concern for the more vulnerable members of society and can exacerbate many medical conditions; excessive heat increases morbidity and mortality rates.
