Temporal Responses to Warming: Do Wild Herbivores Trade Off Heat, Predators, and Humans?

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We untangled how summer temperature, predators, and humans influenced behavioral responses in two deer species. Both reduced their daily activity level in response to warming, yet only roe deer increased nocturnality to avoid heat. Conversely, fallow deer traded off heat avoidance with predator avoidance.

ForestForTrees: An R package to infer forest structure from remote sensing data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Estimating forest size‐abundance distributions is essential for understanding demographic processes and structural dynamics. Remote sensing provides broad coverage but often misses smaller trees hidden beneath the canopy, complicating inference of the full size distribution.

Geometric overdispersion facilitates the integration of ecological data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Statistical data integration facilitates inference based on the variety of data prevalent in ecology. In particular, integrated distribution models (IDMs) have been proposed for inferring spatial patterns in abundance using combinations of noisy count, presence–absence and presence–only data.

Inferring processes within dynamic forest models using hybrid modelling

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Modelling forest dynamics under novel climatic conditions requires a careful balance between process‐based understanding and empirical flexibility. Dynamic vegetation models (DVM) represent ecological processes mechanistically, but their performance is sensitive to misspecified functional forms and to unavoidable structural simplifications ...

Assessing Spatiotemporal Side Effects of Diversionary Feeding on Mesopredators

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
We tested whether diversionary feeding alters the space use, aggregation, or activity patterns of mesopredators using a treatment‐control design with camera traps. Although both species frequently used feeding stations, diversionary feeding did not significantly affect their spatial distribution, aggregation, or temporal behaviour.
