Canadian Geographer / Le géographe canadien, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 537-549, Winter / hiver 2023., 2023 Résumé Au Québec, la dynamique fluviale de la rivière des Escoumins a été perturbée par l'industrie forestière pendant plus d'un siècle. Un barrage a notamment été construit près de l'embouchure en 1846, puis démantelé en 2013. Ces perturbations ont entraîné des répercussions importantes sur l'équilibre du cours d'eau et sur l'habitat du saumon ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 420-433, June 2023., 2023 Trophic interactions in seagrass meadows have been rarely investigated over the long‐term and at the scale of a whole seagrass habitat. In this work, reciprocal links between an intertidal seagrass species, Zostera noltei, and an herbivorous bird feeding on this seagrass species, the migratory goose Branta bernicla bernicla, were investigated using an ...

Animal Conservation, Volume 26, Issue 2, Page 264-275, April 2023., 2023 We demonstrate on a short‐lived, endangered raptor species, the Lesser kestrel, that additional mortality due to windfarms can have a negative impact on population growth rate. Although the impact is currently moderate, the forecasted decrease in immigration rate, and increase in the number of windfarms at a wider scale, may threaten the recovery of ...

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 16, Issue 2, Page 306-312, March 2023., 2023 A high number of insects were found dead on a beach in the South of France. We suspect strong winds or a localised storm were at the origin of their stranding. All dead species recorded are known for their migratory behaviour and hoverflies made up about 77% of the dead insects.

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 265-279, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Every year, millions of birds migrate between breeding and nonbreeding habitat, but the relative numbers of animals moving between sites are difficult to observe directly. Here we propose FlywayNet, a discrete network model based on observed count data, to determine the most likely migration links between regions using statistical modelling ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 8, Page 2142-2153, August 2022., 2022 This study provides empirical evidence that wind turbines close to optimal habitats such as hedgerows strongly repel bats, while wind turbines located farther away in open areas could attract them. Increased risks of collisions and habitat losses near edges strengthen the importance of keeping wind turbines at a sufficient distance from woody edges (e ...

Global Change Biology, Volume 28, Issue 7, Page 2312-2326, April 2022., 2022 We use model projections to explore the timing and intensity in the distribution of marine fish stocks that are shared across the world's Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ). Our findings suggest that many shared stocks’ distribution and catch are expected to change in most EEZs by 2030.

Seasonal effects of farmer‐managed livestock grazing exclusions on bird communities in Burkina Faso
Ecological Applications, Volume 35, Issue 8, December 2025.Abstract Anthropogenic activities such as livestock grazing and deforestation are primary causes of land degradation in drylands such as the Sahel Zone of Africa, threatening the livelihoods of rural communities and biodiversity. To restore degraded habitats, measures such as farmer‐managed livestock grazing exclusion, where the native vegetation is ...

Modelling connectivity at a regional scale during seasonal movements of the greater horseshoe bat
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 9, Page 2163-2176, September 2025.Studying pathways during high mobility periods is one of the main missing elements for effective conservation, particularly for small species such as bats. An acoustic, stratified sampling at both local and large scale provided sufficient spatial and temporal accuracy to model connectivity throughout the life cycle of bats. This framework can easily be

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 6, Page 1437-1448, June 2025.Data from automatic detection systems are a promising non‐invasive approach that requires few human and logistical resources to develop a more comprehensive bird collision risk mitigation strategy. They can be valuable to biodiversity stakeholders to highlight environmental factors that locally increase bird exposure and sensitivity, to avoid ...
