Predator activity, proactive anti‐predator strategies and nesting phenology produce a dynamic landscape of risk to tundra goose reproduction

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 11, Page 2282-2294, November 2025.
We show that Arctic and red fox space use significantly affects goose nest habitat selection and nest success in a low‐Arctic tundra ecosystem. However, the impact of fox predation depended on the location and timing of incubation of the nest, demonstrating the importance of incorporating time into the ‘landscape of fear’ concept.

Examining the Effectiveness of Automated Acoustic Recording Units for Recording Predator‐Related Disturbances in Colony Nesting Birds: A Case Study

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Automated recording units (ARUs) have soared in popularity within the field of avian research and have been used in various studies to replace human observers when collecting data. There is, however, a lack of research into the actual reliability of ARUs when compared to in‐person observers, especially when investigating avian behavior. This case study

Language Histories, Community Translanguaging, and Collective Repertoires: Multilingual Language Learning Interactions in a Second‐Grade Writing Workshop

open access: yesReading Research Quarterly, Volume 60, Issue 4, October/December 2025.
Findings illustrate how the community repertoire was drawn on and constructed in a second‐grade, multilingual, English‐medium classroom during writing workshop. ABSTRACT Using a community translanguaging lens, this paper focuses on the collective translanguaging practices of second‐grade students who come from multilingual language backgrounds but were

Relation of lineaments to sulfide deposits: Bald Eagle Mountain, Centre County, Pennsylvania [PDF]

open access: yes
The author has identified the following significant results. Discrete areas of finely-fractured and brecciated sandstone float are present along the crest of Bald Mountain and are commonly sites of sulfide mineralization, as evidenced by the presence of ...

Kennedy Space Center (KSC) Launch Pad Avian Abatement Efforts Including Related KSC Road Kill Reduction Effort [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
While birds might seem harmless, there's a good reason for the concern. During the July 2005 launch of Discovery on mission STS-1 14, a vulture soaring around the launch pad impacted the shuttle's external tank just after liftoff.

Hierarchy-based Image Embeddings for Semantic Image Retrieval

open access: yes, 2019
Deep neural networks trained for classification have been found to learn powerful image representations, which are also often used for other tasks such as comparing images w.r.t. their visual similarity. However, visual similarity does not imply semantic

Community‐informed and codesigned research to understand the impacts of railways on wildlife

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Trains cause mortalities of several animal species, but the ecological impacts of railways are understudied. Most research on wildlife–train collisions has focused on large mammals, but understanding railway‐specific risks for underrepresented taxa, especially vulnerable species, is important for developing effective mitigation strategies ...

Past research and future directions in understanding how birds use their sense of smell

open access: yesIbis, Volume 167, Issue 4, Page 853-881, October 2025.
Our understanding of the functional importance of olfaction to birds has improved over the past 60 years, largely as the result of experimental studies testing how birds use their sense of smell in different contexts. As it is impossible to measure directly which odours birds can detect, we rely on measuring behavioural responses to scent cues or ...
