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 ...

Revealing the dark biodiversity around us through a national school‐based citizen science project
Abstract School‐based citizen science holds great potential for expanding biodiversity knowledge while engaging young people in authentic scientific practices. This is particularly important for revealing ‘dark biodiversity’, defined as the vast yet often overlooked biodiversity that remains hidden due to its small size or cryptic nature, including ...

Abstract The Laurentian Great Lakes are undergoing rapid winter transformations, with profound implications for human societies. Winter air temperatures have increased, accelerating ice loss since the mid‐1990s. These trends are altering thermal regimes, shifting precipitation from snow to rain, and increasing winter runoff and nutrient fluxes, with ...

Remote Sensing for Operational Surveillance of Mosquito‐Borne Diseases
Abstract Remote sensing observations have demonstrated increasing value in identifying human risk from mosquito‐borne diseases because mosquito ecology is intrinsically tied to geophysical variables measurable by satellites. Satellite‐based monitoring of environmental conditions at varying temporal and spatial scales has extended our capacity for ...
