Applying Occupancy Modelling to Inform Conservation Strategies for a Threatened Parrot Population

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Parrots provide essential ecological functions that are critical to ecosystem health, yet they are among the most threatened avian orders. Southern palm cockatoos (Probosciger aterrimus macgillivrayi) are predicted to face severe population declines due to land clearing, altered fire regimes, and low reproductive success.

Host preferences of non‐native Acalolepta aesthetica (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) on the Island of Hawaiʻi

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 149-159, May 2026.
Acalolepta aesthetica is a non‐native cerambycid established on the Island of Hawaiʻi. We show its preferred hosts are woody species that are highly valued for agricultural, horticultural and cultural uses. We used a resource selection function to estimate host preferences and found that kukui (Aleurites moluccanus), the state tree, was preferred ...

Polyethylene tarping elevates temperature and reduces emergence of Phloeosinus punctatus LeConte (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) from giant sequoia debris piles

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 265-269, May 2026.
Phloeosinus bark beetles may build up large populations in branch debris piles and stress giant sequoia trees. Covering debris piles with polyethylene sheeting increased the mean ambient temperature in piles and reduced beetle emergence. This was mediated by canopy structure, where ambient temperatures were further elevated under open canopies.

Urban Bushland Wildfire Adaptation: Lessons From Managing Grassland Biodiversity and Woody Thickening on the Queens Domain, Hobart, Tasmania

open access: yesEcological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban bushland fragments have important natural and social values. Their management is challenging because they typically have experienced complex historical disturbances, making it difficult to settle on the most appropriate restoration targets. We illustrate these issues by chronicling vegetation and fire regime changes in the Queens Domain,

River conservation and restoration in croplands: can we improve the common agriculture policy as an instrument of practice?

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue S1, May 2026.
Abstract This study investigates the integration of river restoration with the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), focusing on the differences between European Union (EU) and Portuguese documents regarding river restoration terms. A thematic content analysis highlights that despite the varying document sizes, the proportion of mentions related to river ...

Types of Capital and Their Measurement

open access: yesReview of Income and Wealth, Volume 72, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Capital is notoriously heterogeneous, including physical, intangible, human and natural capitals, and this heterogeneity can make measurement very difficult. To bring structure to the wide range of capital assets, and inform measurement, we define five dimensions for classifying capital types: produced versus non‐produced; fixed versus non ...
