Comparing Urban and Wildland Bear Densities with a DNA-Based Capture-Mark-Recapture Approach

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
California’s black bear (Ursus americanus) population has tripled over the last 3 decades, causing an increased incidence of human–bear conflicts, many of which now occur in urban areas. Consequently, it is imperative that bear managers have the ability to monitor population parameters in both wildland and urban environments to help manage bears ...

A new scoring system for use in capture–recapture studies for bowhead whales photographed with drones1

Drone Systems and Applications, 2022
Effective management of animal populations requires knowledge of life history parameters and estimates of population abundance. One method commonly used to estimate abundance is capture–recapture analyses of photographs.

Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Growing as slow as a turtle: Unexpected maturational differences in a small, long-lived species.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Turtle body size is associated with demographic and other traits like mating success, reproductive output, maturity, and survival. As such, growth analyses are valuable for testing life history theory, demographic modeling, and conservation planning. Two

Stability of Perovskite Indoor Photovoltaics: A Focused Review and a Call for Standardized Stability Reporting

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
While perovskite solar cells have been widely studied, including their stability, perovskite indoor photovoltaics (IPVs) have only recently emerged. Nevertheless, more studies are appearing in the literature. The systematic stability study of IPVs is crucial, particularly given the inconsistencies in reported methodologies and results, which call for ...

Is Circular Also Sustainable? Assessing Circularity and Sustainability to Enhance Legitimacy in Agri‐Food Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The agri‐food industry faces major sustainability challenges, requiring a shift in companies' approach. Circular economy principles offer a promising path by enhancing resource efficiency, reducing waste, and valorizing by‐products. However, the integration of sustainability and circularity practices remains limited, especially in developing ...

Operational Performance Implications of Circular Economy Implementation: An Empirical Exploration in the Manufacturing Sector

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global manufacturing sector has increasingly adopted circular economy (CE) practices to address sustainability challenges and improve operational efficiency. This study explores the impact of five CE practices—reduce, reuse, remanufacture, recycle, and recover—on key operational performance dimensions: quality, speed, dependability ...
