Patterns of understorey bird diversity across Amazonian forests: survey effort and range maps predict local species richness

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Species diversity typically increases from higher to lower latitudes, but the regional‐scale variation along this geographic gradient remains unclear. It has been suggested that species diversity throughout Amazonia generally increases westward toward the Andes, but this pattern and its environmental determinants require further investigation for most ...

Extension of Pradel capture–recapture survival‐recruitment model accounting for transients

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Population growth is the sum of survival and recruitment, and knowledge of these two vital rates is crucial for understanding population dynamics. Moreover, animal populations often contain varying number of transient (i.e.

Estimating population parameters of longsnout seahorses, Hippocampus reidi (Teleostei: Syngnathidae) through mark-recapture

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology, 2017
Estimating population parameters is essential for understanding the ecology of species, which ultimately helps to assess their conservation status. The seahorse Hippocampus reidi is directly exposed to anthropogenic threats along the Brazilian coast, but

Twenty years of dynamic occupancy models: a review of applications and look to the future

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Since their introduction over 20 years ago, dynamic occupancy models (DOMs) have become a powerful and flexible framework for estimating species occupancy across space and time while accounting for imperfect detection. As their popularity has increased and extensions have further expanded their capabilities, DOMs have been applied to increasingly ...

Age‐specific survival of reintroduced swift fox in Badlands National Park and surrounding lands

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2016
In 2003, a reintroduction program was initiated at Badlands National Park (BNP), South Dakota, USA, with swift foxes (Vulpes velox) translocated from Colorado and Wyoming, USA, as part of a restoration effort to recover declining swift fox populations ...

Population recovery following decline in an endangered stream-breeding frog (Mixophyes fleayi) from subtropical Australia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Amphibians have undergone dramatic declines and extinctions worldwide. Prominent among these have been the stream-breeding frogs in the rainforests of eastern Australia. The amphibian chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) has been postulated

Drying Times: Integrating Citizen Science to Examine Survival of Florida Largemouth Bass in a Coastal Refuge Habitat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In aquatic systems refuge habitats increase resistance to drying events and are necessary for maintaining populations in disturbed environments. However, reduced water availability and altered flow regimes threaten the existence and function of these ...

From shadows to data: first robust population assessment of snow leopards in Pakistan

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The snow leopard Panthera uncia is a flagship species of the greater Himalayan region and symbolizes the integrity of this ecological system. Within the greater Himalayas, Pakistan holds special significance as the north of the country represents a confluence of three major mountain ranges (Hindu Kush, Pamir–Karakoram, and Himalaya).
