The Perspectives of Key Stakeholders on the Reintroduction of Apex Predators to the United Kingdom

open access: yesEcologies
Apex predators were extirpated from the UK hundreds of years ago. Practitioners have recently advocated for reintroductions of predators in the UK given their role as keystone species.

Incorporating natural and human factors in habitat modelling and spatial prioritisation for the Lynx lynx martinoi [PDF]

open access: yesWeb Ecology, 2016
Countries in south-eastern Europe are cooperating to conserve a sub-endemic lynx species, Lynx lynx martinoi. Yet, the planning of species conservation should go hand-in-hand with the planning and management of (new) protected areas.

Let's Talk About Bone Cylinders. Taphonomy of Carnivores and Humans

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTBone cylinders are a distinctive structure predominantly produced by durophagous carnivoran species during the consumption of long bones, in which the diaphyseal canal remains intact while both epiphyses are removed or consumed. This study evaluates the significance of this morphology, traditionally attributed to extant and extinct hyena ...

Emotional costs and empathy are associated with tolerance towards wolves

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The recovery and growing population of grey wolves (Canis lupus) in Germany has increased interactions with livestock owners. Ensuring the continued protection and survival of wolves requires understanding the socio‐psychological factors that shape people's tolerance towards coexisting with them.

Niche partitioning of bobcat and Canada lynx near their distribution contact zone

open access: yesFACETS
Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) are keystone predators. However, contact with congenerics, like the bobcat (Lynx rufus), could alter lynx trophic ecology and destabilize boreal food webs.

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

open access: yesJournal of Mammalogy, 2013
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. Two different methods are available to estimate density: nonspatial capture–recapture models where the trap polygon is buffered with the half or full mean maximum ...

Investigation of the laser fluence and wavelength dependence in surface‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry using gold nanoparticles

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
Rationale Surface‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (SALDI) mass spectrometry (MS) builds on the use of nanostructured surfaces (e.g., coatings of colloidal nanoparticles) to promote analyte desorption and ionization. The SALDI process is believed to occur mainly through thermal processes, resulting from heating of the nanosubstrate upon absorption ...
