TAXI, CHILLI AND MOBILE PARTY BRANCH: Reterritorialization of Migrants in Urban Villages, Shenzhen

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In China as well as in other countries, migrants often grapple with urban inequities by actively reshaping the functions and meanings of their environments. While acknowledging established frameworks such as place‐making and urban informality, this study adopts a complementary lens, framing migrants’ everyday practices as a process of ...

How Do Forward‐Looking Estimates of Credit Losses Affect the Judgments of Financial Statement Users? Comment les estimations prospectives des pertes sur créances influencent‐elles les jugements des utilisateurs des états financiers?

open access: yesContemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Financial accounting standard setters recently changed the accounting for estimates involving credit risk. The change shifted the accounting from an incurred‐loss model (ILM), which is based on credit‐risk conditions that exist at the time of the estimate, to a model based on expected credit losses over the life of the asset in question (ELM),

Extreme site fidelity in long‐distance migratory shorebirds in Australia and potential implications for conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Site fidelity is the tendency for animals to repeatedly return to the same locations, either within or between years. Site fidelity enables animals to utilize knowledge of previously visited locations, including assessments of seasonal variations in health and mortality risks (e.g., predation), resource availability, and social benefits such ...

Five‐year assessment of wolf translocation to Isle Royale National Park, 2018–2023

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
The National Park Service used a variety of methods to monitor the success of a restored wolf population on Isle Royale National Park. Abstract Gray wolf (Canis lupus) translocation is a common approach for restoring ecological function through top‐down regulation.

Inferring the Number of Spawning Events From Young‐of‐the‐Year Genomic Samples and Otolith‐Derived Birth Dates: A Richness‐Estimator Perspective

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Estimating the number of spawning events per female is key to understanding reproductive output in batch‐spawning species, yet direct observation is often infeasible in the wild. Recent advances in genetic kinship inference enable the identification of maternal half siblings from young‐of‐the‐year genomic samples, while otolith‐based age ...

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.

Spatial close‐kin mark‐recapture models applied to terrestrial species with continuous natal dispersal

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) methods use information on genetic relatedness among individuals to estimate demographic parameters. An individual's genotype can be considered a ‘recapture’ of each of its parent's genotype, and the frequency of kin‐pair ...

Points vs. passes: A comparison between electric fishing techniques for sampling fish populations in upland headwater streams

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Point‐abundance sampling by electric fishing (PASE) was compared with single‐pass (DF1) and triple‐pass depletion sampling (DF3) electric fishing on the same reaches of four headwater streams sampled over multiple years in the Ribble catchment, UK. Juvenile salmonids, mostly brown trout Salmo trutta with some Atlantic salmon S.

Spatial close-kin mark-recapture methods to estimate dispersal parameters and barrier strength for mosquitoes.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
Close-kin mark-recapture (CKMR) methods have recently been used to infer demographic parameters for several aquatic and terrestrial species. For mosquitoes, the spatial distribution of close-kin pairs has been used to estimate mean dispersal distance, of
