Need for the Development of Tropical Ecological Stations [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1946
THE letter of Dr. V. J. Chapman and his associates in Nature of November 24, 1945, will be warmly welcomed by all who, like myself, have endeavoured to contribute to the study of tropical ecology. The necessity of fundamental ecological knowledge to the progress of forestry and agriculture, in fact to any rational scheme of land utilization in the ...

Sierra Nevada amphibians demonstrate stable occupancy despite precipitation volatility in the early 21st Century

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Climate can have a strong influence on species distributions, and amphibians with different life histories might be affected by annual variability in precipitation in different ways. The Sierra Nevada of California, United States, experienced some of the

Multi‐scale patterns in the occurrence of an ephemeral pool‐breeding amphibian

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Species distributions are governed by processes occurring at multiple spatial scales. For species with complex life cycles, the needs of all life stages must be met within the dispersal limitations of the species.

Scientific Productivity of Brazilian Ecological Stations [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Conservation, 2019
SummaryProtected areas are frequently used loci for ecological and conservation research, with several national/international designations identifying scientific research as a key objective. For example, Ecological Stations (ESs) in Brazil are strictly protected areas with the explicit goals of protecting nature and hosting scientific research ...

Wildfire immediately reduces nest and adult survival of greater sage-grouse

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Wildfire events are becoming more frequent and severe on a global scale. Rising temperatures, prolonged drought, and the presence of pyrophytic invasive grasses are contributing to the degradation of native vegetation communities.

Nocturnal incubation recess and flushing behavior by duck hens

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Incubating birds must balance the needs of their developing embryos with their own physiological needs, and many birds accomplish this by taking periodic breaks from incubation.

Influence of gas stations on the ecology of the urban environment [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
The aggravation of the environmental situation in major cities of the Russian Federation has been observed in recent years. A significant contribution to the deterioration of the quality of the urban environment has a large number of vehicles and consequently the number of gas stations. They are generally concentrated within the city limits.

Waterfowl recently infected with low pathogenic avian influenza exhibit reduced local movement and delayed migration

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Understanding relationships between infection and wildlife movement patterns is important for predicting pathogen spread, especially for multispecies pathogens and those that can spread to humans and domestic animals, such as avian influenza viruses ...

Avian eggshell thickness in relation to egg morphometrics, embryonic development, and mercury contamination

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Eggshell thickness is important for physiological, ecological, and ecotoxicological studies on birds; however, empirical eggshell thickness measurements for many species and regions are limited.
