Seabird Diversity and Deterrence on Floating Oyster Cages

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Off‐bottom oyster aquaculture involves the use of floating gear, which increases the surface area at the farm and provides roosting sites for seabirds. State authorities require oyster growers to have operational plans that outline mitigation or deterrent strategies to prevent interactions between birds and floating aquaculture gear.

The impact of boat activities associated with an acoustic fish telemetry study on waterbird populations in a Special Protection Area

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract It is widely recognized that the research techniques used to monitor and study wildlife have the potential to disturb and alter the behavior of the study species. However, other impacts on sensitive, non‐target, species are rarely investigated.

Human–Bird Interactions Across Time and Space in a Bronze Age City: The Case of Tell Atchana, Alalakh (Amuq Valley, Turkey)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 35, Issue 6, Page 597-611, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Birds have played both subsistence and symbolic roles in past human societies, with their significance evolving alongside sedentary lifestyles and agriculture. Although Neolithic settlements in Western Asia primarily relied on domesticated mammals, birds remained a marginal resource, their importance varying by region.

Monitoring faunal responses to biodegradable oyster reef restoration materials with camera traps in a subtropical estuary

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 8, November 2025.
Oyster reef restoration has become increasingly crucial due to global population declines. Intertidal oyster reefs provide essential foraging and loafing (resting) grounds to estuarine fauna. To reduce plastic pollution from traditional materials, biodegradable restoration materials have been introduced and are shown to support oyster recruitment ...

Marine Bird Bycatch in Alaska Salmon Gillnet Fisheries

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 366-387, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Incidental catch in gillnet fisheries has a substantial conservation impact on marine diving birds. We synthesized available marine bird bycatch data from Alaska salmon gillnet fisheries to estimate standardized bycatch rates, model factors influencing bycatch rates, and estimate total bycatch.

Avian influenza overview June–September 2025

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Between 7 June and 5 September 2025, 183 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (27) and wild (156) birds across 15 countries in Europe. Although HPAI A(H5N1) virus detections were predominant in western and southwestern Europe, they also occurred on the northernmost coast of Norway. More than

Bone Mineral Density of Willow Ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) as a Potential Taphonomic Factor in Skeletal Part Attrition

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 284-294, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Agents of taphonomy can bias skeletal parts and the frequency of bones in archaeological sites. An important factor to consider is the possible effect of bone density‐mediated attrition on archaeornithological assemblages. We scanned willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) specimens using a Lunar iDXA and an enCcore small animal body add‐on to ...
