Using a live‐streaming webcam to assess the behavioural responses of waterbirds to changes in the density of swans Cygnus spp.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife research has benefitted from the development of new methods that allow data to be collected remotely, with less disturbance to focal animals. The proliferation of livestreaming webcams, for example, those used by nature reserves for public engagement purposes, have offered new possibilities for the study of wildlife behaviour.

Effects of hunting on waterbird numbers in Mediterranean coastal wetlands in France: the case of the Hérault department

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Waterfowl hunting plays a complex role in the conservation of waterbird populations. While hunting can provide conservation benefits, excessive or unregulated hunting may threaten waterbird populations, particularly for species with declining numbers or high sensitivity to human disturbances.

Using programmable infusion pump in avian species – a validation methodology in geese

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife face anthropogenic and natural stressors that affect their physiology and behaviour. The activity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis and glucocorticoid (GC) production is intrinsically linked with energy regulation and environmental stressors.

Soil and microbial responses to wild ungulate trampling depend more on ecosystem type than trampling severity

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Physical trampling is a ubiquitous activity of walking vertebrates, but is poorly understood as a mechanism impacting biogeochemical cycling in soil. Lack of detailed knowledge of soil abiotic–biotic interactions underlying trampling effects, and the primary sources of ...

Goose multi-omics database: A comprehensive multi-omics database for goose genomics

Poultry Science
Multi-omics has helped elucidate the gene expression patterns and genomic variations closely associated with economically significant traits in geese. Despite the substantial genomic data generated through extensive goose studies, a unified platform for ...

Environmental drivers of metapopulation dynamics throughout the full annual cycle in a declining Arctic‐nesting migratory herbivore

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We provide a framework for extending commonly used integrated population models to a metapopulation framework for testing novel ecological hypotheses about how changing environmental conditions within and among subpopulations drive changes in animal abundance.

A Small Act Towards Circular Bioeconomy: Adoption of Integrated Crop‐Livestock System and Its Impacts on Fertiliser Use

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integrated crop‐livestock system (ICLS) involves rural households simultaneously engaging in crop cultivation and livestock rearing, embodying the principles of a circular bioeconomy. In this system, crop cultivation produces straw as livestock feed, while livestock rearing generates manure that enriches the soil for crop production.

OTUD1 regulates cytokine expression and related pathways in goose fatty liver by promoting deubiquitination of its target proteins

Poultry Science
: Goose fatty liver (or foie gras) does not develop inflammation even in severe steatosis, which is different from human nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and it is considered as a unique model for NAFLD study.

‘Reinventing’ the Beach? Lessons from a Local Development Plan in the French Riviera

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Coastal squeeze is now so tangible both globally and locally that the focus of scientific debate has expanded from the erosion of beaches to the risk of their disappearance. In this context, it is crucial to explore local development plans that aim to preserve the long‐term existence of a beach.

Knowing Receipt, Equitable Proprietary Rights, and Duties of Due Administration

The Modern Law Review, EarlyView.
In Byers v Saudi National Bank (2023) the Supreme Court held that a claimant in knowing receipt must have had a ‘continuing equitable proprietary interest’ in the property received by the defendant. Such an interest is commonly understood to include a right to benefit from the property, yet successful claims in knowing receipt have often been made by ...
