Nest boxes as a recovery tool for hollow‐using mammals following fire

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Tree hollows provide crucial habitat for vertebrate species globally, but their decline—particularly following habitat disturbances—has led to the increased use of nest boxes in conservation efforts. In our study, we deployed 54 nest boxes across burnt and unburnt sites after the 2019–2020 Australian megafires and monitored arboreal mammal activity ...

Communities with diverse subsistence needs require a variety of functional tree traits

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Malagasy forest users vary the traits that they prefer for different household uses. Accessibility is prioritized for daily uses such as fuelwood, while functional traits are valued for longer‐term uses. Differences between men and women reflect traditional gender roles.

Effectiveness and adherence in a tirzepatide‐supported digital weight‐loss programme in Australia: A real‐world observational study

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Obesity is a growing global health crisis; pharmacotherapies such as tirzepatide combined with multidisciplinary lifestyle support have shown promise but real‐world evidence in digital weight‐loss services (DWLSs) is limited. This retrospective study evaluated 6‐ and 12‐month weight loss, adherence and predictors of outcomes in an ...

Seasonality as a structuring factor of the dung beetle community in burned neotropical savannas

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
We tested the effects of fire, vegetation cover and seasonality on dung beetle communities, focusing on species richness, composition and co‐occurrence patterns in savannas. Fire did not affect species richness. However, seasonality was the dominant factor influencing species composition, followed by fire and vegetation cover.

Breeding in natural nesting sites can improve the resilience of local Lesser Kestrel (Falco naumanni) populations to environmental changes

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
The identification of key habitats of threatened species and of extrinsic environmental factors that influence their resilience to human‐induced environmental changes are the foundation for the definition of conservation objectives. Using the presence and numerical abundance data collected in a long‐term survey (2000–24) of breeding colonies of Lesser ...

Looking for Greener Pastures: In Vitro Screening of Phytogenics for the Control of Sparicotyle chrysophrii in Gilthead Sea Bream

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gill parasite Sparicotyle chrysophrii poses a significant threat to gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) aquaculture in the Mediterranean, causing considerable mortality and economic losses. As traditional chemotherapeutic treatments, like formalin, face growing regulatory restrictions, there is an urgent need for alternative control ...
