Population history, gene flow, and bottlenecks in island populations of a secondary seed disperser, the southern grey shrike (Lanius meridionalis koenigi) [PDF]

, 2014
Studying the population history and demography of organisms with important ecological roles can aid understanding of evolutionary processes at the community level and inform conservation.

The Case of the Missing Green Iguana Predators: Reviews of Ecological Literature Should Go Beyond Google Scholar

The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowing about species interactions is essential for ecological research, conservation efforts, resource management, and maintaining healthy ecosystems, but many of these, such as reports of predation, may not always be published in easily located resources—if they are published at all.

Genomic signatures of convergent shifts to plunge-diving behavior in birds

Communications Biology, 2023
Understanding the genetic basis of convergence at broad phylogenetic scales remains a key challenge in biology. Kingfishers (Aves: Alcedinidae) are a cosmopolitan avian radiation with diverse colors, diets, and feeding behaviors—including the archetypal ...

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Green Human Resource Management and Employee Green Behaviour in Hotels: Mediating Roles of Job Satisfaction and Work Well‐Being

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the impact of green human resource management (GHRM) practices on employee green behavioural intention (GBI) and in‐role green behaviour (EGB‐IR) in the hospitality sector. Drawing on conservation of resources (COR) theory, we examine the mediating roles of job satisfaction and employee well‐being as psychological ...

On the origin of Halipeurus heraldicus on Round Island petrels: cophylogenetic relationships between petrels and their chewing lice [PDF]

, 2010
Lice phylogenetic relationships have often been used to elucidate host relationships and vice versa. In this study, we investigate the louse genus Halipeurus which parasitizes bird hosts in the families Procellariidae, Hydrobatidae and Pelecanoididae ...

Determinants of Circular Economy Participation Among Gen Z in a Sun‐and‐Beach Destination: A Theory of Planned Behavior Approach

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using the Theory of Planned Behavior, this study examines the determinants influencing Generation Z in adopting circular practices when traveling as tourists, focusing on 300 respondents from Majorca. Employing a PLS‐SEM framework, the research evaluates the influence of TPB factors on circular economy participation and investigates the impact

Alloy Qualification for Producing Quench and Tempered Plate Steels with Extra‐Heavy Gage

steel research international, EarlyView.
This study develops alloy concepts for ultraheavy steel plates (>100 mm) with ≥690 MPa yield strength. Through dilatometry and Jominy testing, the effects of Mo, Ni, and B on hardenability are quantified. A synergy between 0.5% Mo and 0.5%–1.0% Ni ensures core strength at low cooling rates, while boron microalloying suppresses ferrite and promotes ...
