Using wingbeat frequency to estimate mass gain
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Energy intake is a fundamental currency in ecology that is critical to reproductive success, survival and lifetime fitness. Measuring foraging success in wild animals via biologgers has been a long‐standing challenge but is essential to understanding the mechanisms underlying population dynamics and species distributions.

Making Mining Licit: Gold, Commodification, and the Everyday Performance of Law in Colombia
American Anthropologist, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ethnographies of resource‐making have shown that the extraction of resource value from objects is premised on obviating the emplaced lifeworlds that surrounded objects before they traveled to consumer markets. Much of this literature looks at such supply‐chain disentanglement from the viewpoint of corporate and formal regulatory practices ...

Taxonomic and functional diversity of urban bees of the world
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Bees play a pivotal role in terrestrial environments. Urbanization can affect these organisms and the ecosystem services they provide. However, knowledge of the global diversity of urban bees is limited. Thus, we summarized data on urban bee species identities and occurrences; compared distributions of all bees with those found in urban ...

A robust method for mapping refugial capacity in montane forests
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.We developed a refugial capacity analysis to guide management strategies to protect montane forests that will be relatively buffered from disturbances. Through sensitivity analyses, we found that our approach was robust to uncertainty in thresholds and climate forecasts, consistently identifying refugia across the landscape in similar locations and ...

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Salty conditions in urban stormwater ponds can influence dispersal timing in species‐specific ways for actively dispersing aquatic heteropteran insects. Assaying multiple aspects of dispersal propensity, Hesperocorixa obliqua emigrated earlier in stormwater pond conditions while overall probabilities remained unchanged; Notonecta undulata emigration ...
