Using eDNA metabarcoding to understand the effect of fire on the diet of small mammals in a woodland ecosystem. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Information regarding diet changes over time after disturbance is lacking for many animals living in habitats prone to disturbances such as fires. DNA metabarcoding is a versatile molecular method that allows simultaneous characterization of many biotas using taxonomically informative barcode regions.

Phenological shifts and increases in voltinism within a moth community over a century of anthropogenic change. [PDF]
EcologyAbstract In temperate ecosystems, warming temperatures can advance spring phenology, extend autumn phenology, disrupt dormancy regulation, result in phenological mismatch across taxa, and even lead to increases in the number of generations per year (i.e., increases in voltinism).
