The Long Shadow of ‘Populist Punitiveness’—Why Public Opinion May Not Preclude Increasing the Age of Criminal Responsibility in England and Wales

The Howard Journal of Crime and Justice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article provides one of the first broad reviews of global research on public opinion regarding the age of criminal responsibility (ACR) alongside findings from a small‐scale exploratory survey of adults in England and Wales. Reviewed studies show strong support for raising the ACR across regions like Scotland, Australia, Hong Kong and ...

Challenges in population monitoring: Bar‐tailed Godwits (Limosa lapponica) on the East Atlantic Flyway defy assumed population structure

Ibis, EarlyView.
Estimating and monitoring migratory bird populations involves significant challenges, even in the most well‐studied and easily‐counted species, and can be further complicated by long‐held but unverified assumptions and by shifting distributions in changing flyway conditions.

Field‐based evidence of impaired sperm quality associated with conventional farming in two passerine birds

Ibis, EarlyView.
The detrimental effects of conventional farming on bird biodiversity are increasingly documented. Despite this, the specific impacts of both organic and conventional farming practices on bird coloration and sperm quality in natural settings remain unexplored. This study aimed to determine whether these farming practices differentially affect body mass,

How much sampling is enough? Four decades of understorey bird mist‐netting across Amazonia define the minimum effort to uncover species assemblage structure

Ibis, EarlyView.
Mist‐net sampling comprises a key methodological component of assemblage‐wide avifaunal studies, particularly in the understorey of closed‐canopy tropical forests. To investigate mist‐net bird captures and species assemblage structure, we compiled data from 312 sites across the Pan‐Amazon.

A half century of monitoring reveals contrasting survival responses of Icelandic seabirds to climate and fisheries pressures

Ibis, EarlyView.
Seabirds serve as key indicators of marine environmental changes, with adult survival being a critical parameter for assessing population health. Iceland hosts some of the largest seabird populations in the North Atlantic, making it a valuable location for studying long‐term trends in seabird demographics.

Combining δ2H and δ34S stable isotopes identifies diverse moult strategies in a short‐distance migratory bird

Ibis, EarlyView.
Moult strategies in birds can vary considerably even within a single species, particularly in terms of where moulting takes place. Yet, the factors underlying this variation and its consistency across years and individuals remain poorly understood. One such strategy, moult migration, involves individuals moving to a specific moulting location amid ...

Capture‐recapture

American Ethnologist, 2022
ABSTRACTCapture‐recapture, a method devised for estimating wildlife population sizes using technologies like bird banding, has been repurposed for use with “rare and elusive” human populations. Capture‐recapture is implemented to count “key populations,” groups that constitute a small portion of the general population but are at high risk of HIV ...

Capture-Recapture Models

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 2000
Here I briefly review capture-recapture models as they apply to estimation of demographic parameters (e.g., population size, survival, recruitment, emigration, and immigration) for wild animal populations. These models are now also widely used in a variety of other applications, such as the census undercount, incidence of disease, criminality ...
