What next? Rewilding as a radical future for the British countryside [PDF]

, 2015
Rewilding is an optimistic environmental agenda to reverse the loss of biodiversity and reconnect society with nature. This chapter explores Britain’s ecological history, back to the Last Interglacial before the arrival of modern humans, when the climate

Comprehensive Characterization of Spelt Wheat and Common Wheat Protein and Viscosity Traits Under Different Field Management Systems

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is an increasing interest in healthier, nutrient‐rich foods so alternative grains produced in smaller quantities—including spelt wheat (Triticum spelta L.)—have once again become the focus of consumers. At the same time, the scientific proof of these claims is incomplete.

Habitat complexity and prey composition shape an apex predator's habitat use across contrasting landscapes

Ecography, EarlyView.
The spatial ecology of stalk‐and‐ambush predators like the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx depends on prey availability and environmental features, yet the relative roles of these factors remain unclear at large spatial scales. In this study, we analysed lynx habitat use across central and southern Finland using snow‐track data from the Wildlife Triangle ...

Investigations on the Potential Role of Free-Ranging Wildlife as a Reservoir of SARS-CoV-2 in Switzerland

Viruses
Amid the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, concerns surfaced regarding the spread of the virus to wildlife. Switzerland lacked data concerning the exposure of free-ranging animals to SARS-CoV-2 during this period.

Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Optoelectronic Properties of [(n‐/tert‐C4H9)S(CH3)2]PbI3

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Reaction of two isomers of butyldimethylsulfonium cation with PbI2 using solid‐state and solution methods yielded the corresponding organic/inorganic hybrid compounds with high humidity tolerance and 1D crystal structures of [n‐C4H9S(CH3)2]PbI3 and [tert‐C4H9S(CH3)2]PbI3.

Presence of the Eurasian lynx (<em>Lynx lynx</em>) in three contiguous valleys of the Verbania Province (Piemonte, northern Italy)

Hystrix, the Italian Journal of Mammalogy, 2000
<strong>Abstract</strong> The presence of the Eurasian lynx (<em>Lynx lynx</em> L. 1758) was revealed during an investigation performed from I991 to 1994 in three contiguous valleys (Antigorio valley, Formazza valley and Devero ...

Dog attacks on wild desert tortoises: A risk model

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Domestic dogs attack and severely injure wild desert tortoises at the urban and ex‐urban interface with deserts. Severe trauma to tortoises increased 4 times to shell and limbs and 16.5 times to the gular horn over the decades between the 1970s and 2000s. Tortoises were at exponential risk of severe trauma when living within 12 km of settlements, towns,

Long‐term changes in habitat selection and prey spectrum in a reintroduced Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) population in Switzerland

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
When wild‐caught Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) from the Slovak Carpathian Mountains were reintroduced to Central Switzerland in the early 1970s and spread through the north‐western Swiss Alps (NWA), they faced a largely unfamiliar landscape with strongly ...

Density estimations of the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) in the Swiss Alps [PDF]

, 2017
Use of photographic capture—recapture analyses to estimate abundance of species with distinctive natural marks has become an important tool for monitoring rare or cryptic species, or both.
