Variation in population size, nest distribution, colony extent, and timing of movements at the largest known parrot colony

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Psittaciformes are among the most threatened birds, and population size and trend estimates are needed to aid conservation. The burrowing parrot Cyanoliseus patagonus is undergoing substantial changes in its population size, due to habitat degradation, trapping for the pet trade, and persecution as crop pest.

Above‐ground nest locations support key life stages and group behaviours in Eurasian badger territories

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Although the Eurasian badger Meles meles is well known for occupying underground setts, badgers also use nests above ground. There is limited research as to how these above‐ground nests function within a badger territory and which behaviours and life stages they provide for social groups.

Genetic inference of orchid population dynamics on different‐aged lava flows in Costa Rica

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 95-105, January 2023., 2023
Volcán Arenal lava flows represent natural, non‐anthropogenic habitat disturbance that permit precise knowledge of when these sites became available for colonization. By examining the levels and spatial distribution of genetic variation of five Epidendrum radicans populations growing on lava flows deposited in 1968 and 1992, we were able to infer ...

A high‐altitude thermal infrared method for estimating moose abundance and demography in Rocky Mountain National Park, USA

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To

Time as an instrument of settler evasion: Circumventing the implementation of truth and reconciliation in Canadian geography departments

open access: yesCanadian Geographies / Géographies canadiennes, Volume 66, Issue 4, Page 639-652, Winter / hiver 2022., 2022
In 2015, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Canada released its final report on the Indian Residential Schools system and issued 94 calls to action. Education was identified as core to the reconciliation process. Universities across the country responded swiftly, acknowledging the calls as urgent and long overdue.
