Covariates influence optimal camera‐trap survey design for occupancy modelling

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We investigated the impact of covariates (e.g., habitat quality, temperature) on the optimal design of camera trap surveys to estimate species occupancy. Using simulations of a virtual species, we found that increasing the number of cameras consistently reduced error across a range of covariate effects.

Detection of Leptospira in cane toads (Rhinella jimi) from urban and rural Paraíba, Brazil

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Leptospirosis is a significant zoonosis in tropical regions, where poor sanitation and favourable climate aid its spread. Synanthropic animals such as the cane toad (Rhinella jimi), which share environments with both people and wild and domestic animals, may harbour Leptospira and contribute to urban and rural transmission cycles ...
