The use of habitat suitability models in conservation planning

, 2014
The work of this thesis aims to highlight the contribution that suitability models can give to global scale conservation biology. Four main themes will be approached: Opportunity offered by model improvements; Information added to analyses on current protection status; contribution offered to priority setting; information added to long term efficiency ...

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

DEVELOPMENT OF A HABITAT SUITABILITY INDEX FOR THE NOBLE CRAYFISH ASTACUS ASTACUS USING FUZZY MODELLING

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2005
A Geographic Information System (GIS) and fuzzy modelling were used to develop a habitat suitability index for the noble crayfish, Astacus astacus. The model is based on crayfish distribution data for the federal state Hesse, Germany, which had been ...

Protocols for spatial modelling of vector habitat suitability

EFSA Supporting Publications
Abstract This report presents protocols developed for modelling vector habitat suitability using presence‐absence data derived from sources such as VectorNet and GBIF. These datasets, while extensive, often suffer from spatial gaps and lack of absence data. To address this, the report outlines a comprehensive workflow involving the generation of pseudo‐

Coherence‐Gated Wrapped‐Phase InSAR With Matrix‐Based Uncertainty Diagnostics for Burial‐Mound Hotspot Ranking (Sicily, Italy)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Burial mounds are key elements of Mediterranean funerary landscapes, but in intensively cultivated coastal plains their low‐relief expression is easily obscured by ploughing, levelling and rapidly changing surface conditions, making single‐date observations unreliable.

A Century of Learning: The Story of ESA's Education Committee, 1918–2025

The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, EarlyView.
Abstract The Education Committee and its precursors have been highly influential within the Ecological Society of America. Here we document the Education Committee's history, from its origins in reviewing curricular materials through major contributions to ecological literacy, teaching innovation, diversity initiatives, and professional development ...

Enhancing the Secretion Systems: Genetic Engineering of Super Bioagents for Effective Plant Disease Control

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Genetic engineering (GE) overcomes BCA limits, enabling robust, scalable crop protection. “Super Bioagents” (SBs) use optimized SSs to enhance bioactive molecule delivery. Optimizing SSs enhance precise, sustainable effector deployment for stable disease suppression. SBs use microbiome‐informed design for scalable, next‐gen sustainable crop protection.
