Soil health assessment using buried cotton underpants with the help of 1000 citizen scientists

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil is a vital resource for life on Earth. Although many soils are degraded, societal awareness of soil‐related issues is limited. To highlight soil as a key resource and fascinating study system, we initiated a citizen science project together with 1000 participants investigating soil health across Switzerland using buried cotton underpants.

Lightning electromagnetic emission location using arrival time differencing (LEELA): An introduction to the Met Office's next generation Very Low Frequency lightning location system

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This paper describes the Met Office's new lightning location system LEELA. A brief overview of the upgraded hardware and geolocation algorithms is given. LEELA has improved lightning detection capabilities, especially at night. When comparing LEELA to the previous ATDnet system against ground truths LEELA has 100% storm detection efficiency within 5 km

New to town: home range size, habitat selection and behavioral adaptations by urban hares

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
European hares Lepus europaeus have recently been shown to colonize urban areas in different parts of Europe. This appears to be a novel phenomenon, and little is known about the space use and behavioral adaptations of hares living in urban areas. Here, we describe the first findings concerning home range sizes from GPS‐collared hares (n = 3) in Aarhus

Studies of the European hare. XXV. The individual growth curve of the hare [PDF]

open access: yesActa Theriologica, 1971
Celem pracy bylo uzyskanie danych terenowych na temat krzywej wzrostu osobniczego zająca. W środowisku bardzo urozmaiconym na ogrodzonym terenie o powierzchni 21 ha, oznakowano potomstwo zyjącego tam poglowia zajecy. Mlode zające kolczykowano drobnymi aluminiowymi plakietkami z wyrytym biezącym numerem.

Green City and connected habitats? Assessing the impact of urbanization on mammal diversity

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As urban expansion fragments natural habitats, there is a growing concern to improve green patch connectivity for biodiversity within cities globally. Focusing on Freiburg, Germany, one of the greenest cities in Europe, we investigated how patch connectivity is shaping mammal occurrences and species‐specific consequences in urban areas. We particularly

Nocturnal neighbors: exploring residents' perceptions of urban wildlife related to animal traits identified by camera traps and literature

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife in urban areas is often a source of conflict, yet relatively few efforts have been directed toward fostering coexistence in these human‐dominated landscapes. While previous research has focused on socio‐demographic factors influencing perceptions of wildlife, the role of specific animal traits in shaping acceptance remains underexplored.
