The Bayesian sinking in Porticello: a predictable convective windstorm?
Weather, EarlyView.The meteorological phenomenon that led to the Bayesian yacht sinking in Sicily at 0206 utc on 19 August 2024 is here investigated. A thunderstorm occurred during the sinking, but uncertainties exist regarding whether a waterspout or a downburst affected the ship. An in‐depth analysis of available observations highlighted that the ship was likely struck

Weather, EarlyView.This study quantifies the likelihood of May temperature extremes in present, natural (climatology based on pre‐industrial forcings) and future climates. The attribution applies in the context of a May heatwave comparable to the record‐breaking 1944 event and the persistent record‐breaking monthly‐mean temperature from 2024.

Deriving birth timing of roe deer fawns from body measurements to limit mowing mortality
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Every spring, hiding roe deer fawns Capreolus capreolus in meadows are injured or killed by mowing activities. To assess the temporal overlap between mowing activities and the fawning period, and thus help reduce the risk of mowing death, we have determined the average parturition date in three regions of Bavaria, southern Germany.

Unraveling the impact of dog‐friendly spaces on urban–wildland pumas and other wildlife
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.As the most widespread large carnivore on the planet, domestic dogs Canis lupus familiaris can pose a major threat to wildlife, even within protected areas (PAs). Growing human presence in PAs, coupled with increasing pet dog ownership underscores the urgency to understand the influence of dogs on wildlife activity and health.
