Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.

Hypoxia Exacerbates Periapical Periodontitis‐Associated Pathological Bone Loss via the Hypoxia‐Inducible Factor‐2α‐Calmodulin‐Dependent Protein Kinase IV Axis

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Hypoxia exposure activates HIF‐2α, which binds to the Camk4 promoter to enhance RANKL‐mediated osteoclast differentiation, leading to aggravated alveolar bone resorption in periapical periodontitis. ABSTRACT Periapical periodontitis is one of the most common inflammatory bone destructive diseases. Epidemiological evidence suggests that hypoxia exposure,

Effect of a prescribed burn on density of the weed Chrysanthemoides monilifera ssp. monilifera (boneseed) and native orchid taxa in a South Australian Conservation Park

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
The comparison of a prescribed burnt site and adjacent unburnt site at Morialta Conservation Park in South Australia showed mass germination and increased density of the weed boneseed (Chrysanthemoides monilifera ssp. monilifera) in the burnt site, and lower density of the “fire orchid” Pyrorchis nigricans.

Duck Tales: Spatio‐temporal dynamics of habitat use and prey relationships of a diving duck and its implication for conservation management

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Shows the spatiotemporal predictability of wintering eiders based on monitoring data from 1993–2023 with intertidal and subtidal Marine Protected Areas (yellow and green, respectively), and a depiction of the current mismatch between eider hotspots and protection measures. Abstract Migratory animals often follow predictable spatiotemporal distributions

Living on the edge: How do tiger rattlesnakes (Crotalus tigris) navigate a residential golf course development?

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Outdoor recreation and the infrastructure that supports it can impose a wide range of effects on wildlife, and impacts can vary in their severity based on taxa, the surrounding landscape matrix, and the manner in which recreational spaces are managed.

Plant Domestication Affects the Oviposition Behavior and Performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a Parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigated the effects of blueberry domestication on the oviposition behavior and performance of Ganaspis kimorum, a parasitoid of Drosophila suzukii. Domestication of blueberries reduced the oviposition‐searching behavior of the parasitoid but enhanced parasitoid performance, including offspring performance. Additionally, blueberry
