Shining a light on elusive lynx: Density estimation of three Eurasian lynx populations in Ukraine and Belarus. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
We estimated density of three lynx populations in previously unsurveyed areas in Ukraine and Belarus, including the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone, using camera trapping and spatial capture–recapture (SCR) methods. Our results can help the range‐wide assessments of the species status and serve as a baseline for future conservation interventions, as well as ...

Timing Is Everything: The Effect of Exposure to Pollution on Wildlife Gut Microbiota Is Contingent on Season. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Exposure to environmental pollutants can disrupt the gut microbiota, but how pollutants impact natural, seasonal changes in wildlife gut microbiota remains unknown. We quantified how exposure to radionuclides affected temporal changes in the gut microbiota of bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus) inhabiting the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ ...

Blood parasites and bacteria of Muroidea rodents of the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. [PDF]

Int J Parasitol Parasites Wildl
The Chornobyl Exclusion Zone (ChEZ) is a unique area in the world. It combines two things: the largest man-made disaster site in the world and a radioecological observatory. The observatory has been studying the long-term impact of radioactive contamination on the environment, flora and fauna since 1986.

Signatures of Radiation-Induced Stress and Putative Selection on Immune Targets in Chornobyl Wolves. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Investigating the physiological and evolutionary consequences of contaminant exposure in wild populations is critical for understanding long‐term ecological impacts of anthropogenic change. However, how and why species persist, even thrive, in highly contaminated regions in the absence of humans remains a topic of much debate.

The effects of long-term radiation exposure on the reproductive structures of Glyceria maxima (Hartm.) Holmb.: A case study in the Chornobyl exclusion zone

Environmental and Sustainability Indicators
During the acute phase of the Chornobyl accident the biota of the contaminated area was exposed to high doses of ionising radiation. Although these doses decreased significantly over the years, the exposure persisted over a prolonged period.
