Managing the Threat of Subsidized Predators for a Threatened Shorebird

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Subsidized predators—native predators that have become more common due to human activities—challenge the persistence of many at‐risk prey species and require creative solutions beyond lethal predator control. In an 8‐year study, we placed small wire cages over western snowy plover nests that allow passage of plovers, but not their predators, and ...

Polyethylene tarping elevates temperature and reduces emergence of Phloeosinus punctatus LeConte (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) from giant sequoia debris piles

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Phloeosinus bark beetles may build up large populations in branch debris piles and stress giant sequoia trees. Covering debris piles with polyethylene sheeting increased the mean ambient temperature in piles and reduced beetle emergence. This was mediated by canopy structure, where ambient temperatures were further elevated under open canopies.

Phantasmic Encounters in the Arctic: Haunting Materialities Beyond the Ghosts of War

Anthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the vast north, ghostly experiences are common for locals and outsiders alike. Here, we explore how cultural‐natural attributes, like remoteness and extreme seasonal variation, compound experiences of the haunting in visceral ways. This provides the Arctic region with an unusually pronounced baseline of other‐than‐human agency, which in the
