Den attendance by Arctic foxes experiencing 10 years of increasing tourism
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Wildlife tourism is a growing industry, and an increasing number of people seek to observe and interact with wild animals in their natural surroundings. In Iceland, the native Arctic fox Vulpes lagopus is widespread and has been under heavy hunting pressure for centuries.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Urban greenspaces are a haven for wildlife in densely populated cities. Wildlife use greenspaces for resource acquisition, shelter, and travel across urbanized landscapes. Greenspace metrics such as herbaceous or woody landcover, size, patchiness, and human land use influence species richness.

Estimating crippling loss from hunting with multistate models: a case study on northern bobwhites
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Hunting as a recreational pursuit provides an important ecosystem service worldwide. Harvest management plays a vital role in regulating wildlife take to ensure long‐term population sustainability and meet value‐based objectives (e.g. hunter satisfaction). However, managers rarely have complete control or observability of harvest mortality.

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Reported annual per‐capita harvest of muskrats (PCHM) decreased as wetland complexity (total number of wetland patches) decreased in 13 state and federal wetland areas in the Midwest, USA. Our results support the hypothesis that regional‐scale declines in the abundance of muskrats are likely associated with the losses to wetland habitats throughout the

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.This study investigates the breeding success of the critically endangered White‐rumped Vulture in Khaireni Community Forest, and examines local knowledge and perceptions toward its conservation. We found that 71% of active nests were successful, with breeding success significantly influenced by the proximity to carcass deposition sites.

Sequentially Cohen-Macaulay binomial edge ideals [PDF]
We prove that cycles, wheels and block graphs have sequentially Cohen-Macaulay binomial edge ideals. Moreover, we provide a construction of new families of sequentially Cohen-Macaulay graphs by cones.Comment: In this version we have made a substantial ...

DGA structures on minimal free resolutions of binomial edge ideals
We provide a characterisation of all graphs whose parity binomial edge ideals have pure resolutions. Specifically, we show that the minimal free resolution of a parity binomial edge ideal is pure if and only if the corresponding graph is a complete ...

Polynomial‐shaped electrodes for adaptive X‐ray optics
Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.A shaped electrode design for lithium niobate adaptive X‐ray mirrors connects actuator degrees of freedom to specific polynomial orders, enabling general shape control and the correction of defocus, coma and fourth‐order aberrations with a limited number of inputs.For adaptive mirrors on X‐ray beamlines and optical systems, we describe a strategy for ...
