Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1641-1661, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Yulendji Bunwurrung Walagunh With Western Science: Ecological Insights, Emerging Research Questions and Future Directions From Bunurong Stories of Marine Mammals

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Indigenous Knowledge systems contain deep, place‐based ecological insights developed over generations but remain underrepresented in biodiversity assessments and conservation planning. This study explores yulendji Bunwurrung (Bunurong knowledge) through five Stories shared by a Bunurong Elder, using thematic analysis and comparison with contemporary ...

Eyespots in Automeris Moths Mimic Sympatric Owl Species (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Eyespot mimicry is a common anti‐predator strategy in moths, yet the mechanism underlying its effectiveness in Automeris remains unresolved. Using species distribution models, convolutional neural networks, and saliency mapping, we show that Automeris eyespots are visually confusable with sympatric owl eyes and that this similarity is concentrated in ...

Sexual Dimorphism as a Potential Driver of Trophic Specialisation in a Sedentary Synanthropic Bat Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Female common serotine bats (Cnephaeus serotinus) are consistently larger than males in forearm length, wing area and mandibular dimensions related to bite force. Wing dimorphism reflects isometric size scaling rather than shape divergence, suggesting compensation for pregnancy‐related mass increases.

The Reliability and Validity of Manual Palpation to Assess Lower Limb Arterial Occlusion Pressure in Older Adults, for Application in Blood Flow Restriction Exercise

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT (A) Investigate test‐retest reliability of posterior tibial pulse palpation to determine arterial occlusion pressure (AOP) and examine validity against hand‐held Doppler ultrasound. (B) Investigate the suitability of using 130% systolic brachial blood pressure for prescribing cuff inflation pressure for blood flow restriction (BFR) exercise ...

SANE: An index of anthropogenic noise levels for wildlife research in terrestrial ecosystems

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2464-2476, August 2026.
Abstract Understanding the impact of noise pollution on wildlife is challenging due to the complexity of isolating the anthropogenic components from the soundscape. Soundscape studies usually employ acoustic indices that apply thresholds to isolate anthrophony from natural sounds. However, natural and anthropogenic sounds do not always conform to these

Cardiovascular outcomes for Australian women with rheumatic heart disease during pregnancy: A retrospective linked data analysis, 2002–2017

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 105, Issue 8, Page 1531-1541, August 2026.
This retrospective cohort study used linked data to measure the proportion of women with rheumatic heart disease (RHD) who experienced major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after 20 weeks of gestation. Before birth, 4.5% of women with initially uncomplicated RHD and 31.8% of women with initially complicated RHD experienced RHD‐MACE.
