Offshore wind farm avoidance by a discard‐feeding seabird is independent of local fishing activity
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Fishing is not allowed within wind farms; therefore, discard‐feeding seabirds may appear to avoid wind farm areas. We found that most Lesser Black‐backed Gulls avoided the wind farm area, but not each individual in each period. Avoidance of the wind farm was not driven by fishing exclusion within its perimeter.

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Marine heat waves detrimentally affect a range of marine species, including seabirds, and are increasing in frequency and severity. When thousands of dead seabirds wash up on beaches, the public becomes concerned. However, the number of dead birds recorded on beaches is only a fraction of the total mortality; most birds perish at sea.

The Power of Renewal: Status Quo Bias Impacts Voter Approval of School Spending Referendums
Public Budgeting &Finance, EarlyView.Abstract Status quo bias often impacts decisions about private goods and is hypothesized to influence voter choice. This paper offers a clean, direct, real‐world test of status quo bias's effect on voter support for school spending. We take advantage of a unique Minnesota rule that requires ballot language to disclose and distinguish between new and ...
