Using Scale Pattern Variation to Identify Individuals in the Long‐Lived Reptile, Egernia rugosa
ABSTRACT Effective population monitoring programmes rely on identifying individual animals accurately and ethically without negatively impacting their natural behaviour and survival. This study aimed to determine if the chin scale patterns of the threatened yakka skink (Egernia rugosa) could be used to consistently identify individual skinks.

Soil carbon sequestration potential in subtropical grasslands estimated by DayCent‐CABBI
Abstract Soil carbon (C) sequestration by restoring degraded grasslands with adequate management practices offers significant opportunities for climate change mitigation while remaining highly uncertain. In this study, a combination of a biogeochemical model DayCent‐CABBI and eddy covariance (EC) flux towers was applied to evaluate soil C sequestration
