Indigenous Knowledge systems contain deep, place‐based ecological insights developed over generations but remain underrepresented in biodiversity assessments and conservation planning. This study explores yulendji Bunwurrung (Bunurong knowledge) through five Stories shared by a Bunurong Elder, using thematic analysis and comparison with contemporary ...

A Review of the Effects of Freshwater Habitat Quality on Aquatic & Semi‐Aquatic Turtles
This literature review aims to provide a comprehensive review of the relationship between freshwater turtles and their aquatic environments. We also highlight areas which have been over‐ or under‐studied and offer recommendations for future research. ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles and terrapins require an aquatic habitat as part of their natural ecology ...

Stayin' alive: Strategies to reduce predation on target species are context dependent
Abstract Restoration and conservation efforts often aim to reduce predation, particularly by reducing interactions with nonnative predators in heavily disturbed and invaded ecosystems. For Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, a highly valued but declining fishery, potentially useful freshwater rearing habitat restoration strategies may include ...

Trends in thunderstorm days, lightning activity, squalls and the environmental factors in Hong Kong
This study analyses trends in Hong Kong's convective weather using long‐term observer‐based and shorter‐term instrument‐based data. Annual thunderstorm days increased significantly by 1.9 days decade−1 in 1947–2024, notably in June–September, consistent with increasingly favourable warm‐season environments for thunderstorms.

Umbilical Cord: A Non‐Invasive DNA Source for Sea Turtle Genomics
ABSTRACT High‐throughput sequencing has revolutionised conservation genomics by enabling genome‐wide information even in non‐model species. However, obtaining non‐invasive samples for genomics remains challenging in species like sea turtles, which spend most of their lives in the open ocean.
