T(w)o Patch or Not T(w)o Patch: A Novel Biocontrol Model

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 13, Page 14697-14743, 15 September 2026.
ABSTRACT A number of top‐down biocontrol models have been proposed where the introduced predators' efficacy is enhanced via the provision of additional food (AF). However, if the predator has a pest‐dependent monotone functional response, pest extinction is unattainable. In the current manuscript, we propose a model where a predator with pest‐dependent

Why Fire Suppression Persists: Territorial Politics and the Criminalisation of Fire in India's Political Forests

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 5, September 2026.

Myths, Furphies and Red Herrings Associated With Dingo Ecology and Management

Ecological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Variability in the inferential strength or reliability of different scientific studies creates uncertainty in the status of knowledge on a given subject, giving rise to multiple myths, furphies and red herrings in scientific discourse. This is particularly true in the case of dingo ecology and management in Australia, which exemplifies common ...

ABSTRACT Many sharks and rays aggregate in critical habitats to migrate, rest, feed, mate or give birth. These predictable events, often involving dozens to thousands of individuals, represent important and vulnerable phases in their life cycles. However, fishing activities and unregulated tourism can threaten these aggregations, disrupting natural ...
