An evaluation of transmitter effects on adult and juvenile Common Terns using leg-loop harness attachments

open access: yesJournal of Field Ornithology, 2022
Marking birds with transmitters allows for the collection of data that are critical for fully understanding avian life history, but researchers must also be confident that performing such studies is as safe as possible for transmittered individuals ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over

Interface Engineering Remarkably Improves the Stability of Fe‐Based Electrode for Alkaline Water Electrolysis at Industrial Ampere‐Level Current Density

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Interface engineering improves the stability of iron‐based industrial oxygen evolution catalysts by more than 2000 times at ampere‐level current density. ABSTRACT Iron‐based self‐supported electrocatalysts offer cost‐effective oxygen evolution activity but suffer from severe stability degradation under industrial operation.
