Environmentally induced stress affects fitness of bold and shy alike: A long‐term study of personality and feather corticosterone in Arctic‐breeding kittiwakes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Quantifying how individuals differ as their environment changes around them is crucial to predict population responses to climate change. By incorporating personality, physiology and life‐history the authors show that while environmental change is likely to impact the whole population equally, when individuals are most impacted will vary across the ...

PUMAA: Establishing a protocol for utilizing machine learning in forensic anthropological analyses

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of machine learning (ML) models in forensic anthropology (FA) has increased in the last half decade; however, there is a lack of a standardized protocol on how to curate, use, and assess ML models. We introduce PUMAA (A Protocol for Utilizing Machine Learning in Forensic Anthropological Analyses), which includes a flowchart and a ...

Integrated Species Distribution Model Using Historical Data Shows Decline in a Common Semi‐Aquatic Mammal

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
A diagram of the integrated species distribution model of river otter intensity of use. Three types of data (latrine detections, roadkill detections, and detection/nondetection surveys) are linked by different observation processes to the same underlying intensity of use.

Rethinking Spatial Prioritisation for Primate Conservation in an Unprotected Intact Forest Landscape in the Gulf of Guinea

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
This study highlights the importance of the unprotected Yabassi Key Biodiversity Area, Cameroon, for primate conservation in the Gulf of Guinea biodiversity hotspot. We modelled primate distribution patterns and found that historically overlooked parts of the landscape have high species richness and are critical for some threatened species.

Poly-Bernoulli numbers

open access: yesPoly-Bernoulli numbers
By using polylogarithm series, we define “poly-Bernoulli numbers” which generalize classical Bernoulli numbers. We derive an explicit formula and a duality theorem for these numbers, together with a von Staudt-type theorem for di-Bernoulli numbers and another proof of a theorem of Vandiver.

Nest Survival Models and Genomics Illuminate Hybridisation Attempts, Guiding Culturally Informed Management to Recover a Critically Endangered Seabird

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Long‐term monitoring has revealed hybridisation attempts between the Critically Endangered Kuaka Whenua Hou (KWH, Pelecanoides whenuahouensis) and the abundant Kuaka (P. urinatrix). Here we use modelling based on population monitoring data in tandem with genomic data to investigate these attempts and the risk they pose to KWH recovery.
