What’s to lose? A sensuous geography of renters’ bushfire experiences in Australia
Frontiers in CommunicationThis community case study explores the experiences of renters in Hobart, Australia’s most bushfire-prone capital, to understand how they live with and prepare for bushfire risk. Renters, a growing but often overlooked population, face distinct challenges,

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study identified a specific sequence of an extended drought followed by exceptional rainfall as a necessary precursor for mouse plagues in southeastern Australia. Long‐term rainfall anomalies interact with ecological processes to reset population dynamics, creating conditions that support rapid mouse population growth following periods of ...

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.The response of bats to Australian megafires was assessed one year after fires. High severity fire had a negative effect on total bat activity and the activity or occupancy of six species, while a further 10 species was not associated with any fire covariate. Overall, bat responses were complex and not easily predicted by traits alone.

Impact of climate on Australian, non‐Vector‐borne infectious animal diseases: A scoping review
Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Changes to Australia's climate continue to be increasingly relevant for human, animal and planetary health, and have far‐reaching impacts on disease emergence and food security. There is a deficit of knowledge in Australia around how climatic conditions are affecting infectious animal diseases, beyond the more obvious spatial distribution changes of ...

Realtime Bushfire Detection with Spatial-based Complex Event Processing
, 2021 Bushfire is the primary destructive force that may cause damage to a large region, a country, or even the Earth. However, as bushfires spread too fast, they are often identified when they cannot control and cause significant damage.

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Adaptive management of threatened species relies on having ex ante estimates of species’ responses to different interventions. Structured expert elicitation is often used to generate these estimates, but comparisons of these expert‐predicted outcomes with observed results are rare.

Integrating biodiversity protection into emergency management
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Megafires have emerged as a considerable threat to biodiversity conservation worldwide. The biodiversity‐focused response and recovery actions that occurred during Australia's 2019/2020 Black Summer bushfires demonstrate that it is possible to protect biodiversity alongside human life and property during disasters.
