Seaweed fertilisation impacts the chemical and isotopic composition of barley: Implications for analyses of archaeological skeletal remains

open access: yesJournal of Archaeological Science, 2019
Fertilisation with animal manure has been shown to affect crop chemical and isotopic composition, indicating that if manuring effects are not taken into account, there is a risk of overestimating consumer trophic levels in palaeodietary studies.

Microplastic Contamination Has Limited Effects on Coral Fertilisation and Larvae

open access: yesDiversity, 2019
Microplastics are ubiquitous throughout the world’s oceans and contaminate coral reef ecosystems. There is evidence of microplastic ingestion by corals and passive contact with coral tissues, causing adverse health effects that include energy expenditure

Dispersal behaviour of a polygynous carnivore: do cougars Puma concolor follow source‐sink predictions?

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 289-301, September 2013., 2013
The source‐sink model of population dynamics predicts that density drives emigration of subordinate animals to habitats offering lower competition for resources. Several authors have suggested use of this model as a potential framework for conservation of exploited carnivores when precise enumeration is unfeasible.

Spatio‐temporal variation in large herbivore pressure in Norway during 1949‐1999: has decreased grazing by livestock been countered by increased browsing by cervids?

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 286-298, September 2011., 2011
Abstract During recent decades, rough livestock grazing has decreased markedly on unimproved land (i.e. natural and semi‐natural habitats) across most of Europe, whilst the number of wild cervids has increased. However, we still know little about the overall changes in the herbivore pressure and how herbivore regimes vary between biogeographic regions.

The AutoSpawner system - Automated ex situ spawning and fertilisation of corals for reef restoration.

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Management
The restoration of reefs damaged by global and local pressures remains constrained by the scale of intervention currently feasible. Traditional methods for ex situ sexual propagation of corals produce limited materials, typically of limited genetic ...

Predicting the chances of a live birth after one or more complete cycles of in vitro fertilisation: population based study of linked cycle data from 113 873 women

open access: yesBritish medical journal, 2016
Objective To develop a prediction model to estimate the chances of a live birth over multiple complete cycles of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) based on a couple’s specific characteristics and treatment information.

Evaluation of alternative management strategies of muskrat Ondatra zibethicus population control using a population model

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 143-155, June 2011., 2011
Abstract Muskrats Ondatra zibethicus are considered a pest species in the Netherlands, and a year‐round control programme is in effect. Currently, the agency responsible for the management of muskrat populations in the Netherlands (the LCCM) is preparing for field studies to compare alternative strategies of control.

Space use of sympatric deer in a riparian ecosystem in an area where chronic wasting disease is endemic

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 191-209, June 2011., 2011
Abstract Knowledge of movements, range size and spatial overlap of sympatric deer is integral to understanding chronic wasting disease (CWD) in endemic areas and can assist resource managers in modeling the spread of the disease. We radio‐collared 70 deer (30 mule deer Odocoileus hemionus and 40 white‐tailed deer O.

Moose Alces alces habitat use at multiple temporal scales in a human‐altered landscape

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 44-54, March 2011., 2011
Abstract Habitat alteration by humans may change the supply of food and cover for wild ungulates, but few studies have examined how these resources are utilised over time by individuals of different sex and reproductive status. We examined circadian and seasonal variation in habitat utilisation within a moose Alces alces population in central Norway ...
