Matsumura‐Type Estimates and Global Solutions of a Fractional Wave Equation With Nonlocal Nonlinearity

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The main results of this paper are the global existence and long time behavior of solutions of a fractional wave equation with a nonlocal nonlinearity. The techniques in this work rely on norm estimates of the solutions of εutt+ut+(−Δ)βu=0,u(0,x)=φ(x),ut(0,x)=ψ(x),$$ \varepsilon {u}_{tt}+{u}_t+{\left(-\Delta \right)}^{\beta }u=0,\kern1em u ...

Bioclimatic, demographic and anthropogenic correlates of grizzly bear activity patterns in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

Oikos, EarlyView.
Plasticity of diel activity rhythms may be a key element for adaptations of wildlife populations to changing environmental conditions. In the last decades, grizzly bears Ursus arctos in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) have experienced notable environmental fluctuations, including changes in availability of food sources and severe droughts ...

The interplay between landscape change and plasticity in habitat selection determines dispersal movements and settlement in small non‐flying vertebrates

Oikos, EarlyView.
The response of dispersers to landscape changes depends on both external environmental conditions and individual internal conditions, as well as movement and orientation abilities. Plasticity in habitat selection may also affect how individuals respond to landscape changes.

Contesting Regulatory Capacity: Exploring Doctrines in the Regulatory State

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The contemporary literature on regulation and development has emphasised the importance of low discretion devices for achieving desired policy objectives. At the same time, there has been a growing recognition that state capacity in general, and regulatory capacity more specifically, are essential for achieving development goals in a world of ...

‘Should’ and ‘can’ active restoration be used in biodiversity offsets? Stakeholder perspectives from New South Wales, Australia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite their controversial nature, biodiversity offsets are often used as a regulatory tool to counterbalance the impacts of land clearing on biodiversity. Offsets usually aim to achieve no net loss (NNL) of biodiversity through protection and/or restoration of habitat.
