A second species of non‐crocodyliform crocodylomorph from the Late Triassic fissure deposits of southwestern UK: Implications for locomotory ecological diversity in Saltoposuchidae

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over

Letting People in: Redefining Collaboration in Wildland–Urban Interface Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intensifying wildfire regimes and expanding human settlements into wilderness areas have heightened concerns about the wildland–urban interface (WUI) due to the associated increase in fire risk. However, the WUI presents broader social‐ecological challenges that go beyond wildfire risk and remain understudied.

Characterising Vento Norte Downslope Windstorms and Their Thermal Impacts in Southern Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using 20 years of hourly INMET observations in Santa Maria (southern Brazil), we identify 189 Vento Norte (VNOR) downslope windstorms, ~72% in winter, marked by abrupt warming, drying and strong northerly gusts. Across five biometeorological indices (TEFW, TDI, THI, HDI, Humidex), VNOR hours consistently show significantly higher thermal discomfort ...
