Global determinants of home range sizes in felids: Evidence of human disturbance impact

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 697-711, April 2026.
This study is the first to demonstrate the influence of anthropogenic factors and species richness in felids on home range size across the entire felid taxon. Felids are a taxon of major interest in conservation biology, and gaining a comprehensive view of their spatial ecology will help derive global conservation recommendations.

L’unité ovine méditerranéenne est-elle une bonne référence pour évaluer la production des pâturages méditerranéens ? Bilan de quatre ans d’utilisation en garrigue et en Crau

open access: yesINRAE Productions Animales, 1989
Un groupe de chercheurs méditerranéens (groupe PHILOETIOS) a défini une unité standard : l’Unité Ovine Méditerranéenne, ou UOM, pour faciliter l’évaluation et les comparaisons des productions fourragères des parcours et prairies, en zone méditerranéenne.

Understanding fire conflict through stakeholder mapping in Madagascar's grassy biomes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 110-126, January 2026.
Abstract Fire management in biodiverse regions where rural communities depend on traditional fire‐use practices presents a complex global challenge, particularly in Madagascar where fire is considered a threat to forests yet is essential for maintaining grassland ecosystem health and rural livelihoods.

Where do nomads bury their dead? Necro‐ostracism, statelessness, and the pastoral/ peripatetic divide in Afghanistan

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 789-807, September 2025.
This article proposes that stigmas connected to social categories of exclusion prevalent during life extend into dealings with the dead, here referred to as ‘necro‐ostracism’, in the context of death and burial of Muslim nomadic populations in urban Afghanistan. Based on qualitative fieldwork carried out in Kabul, Herat, and Mazar‐e Sharif, it explores

1154. Fritillaria of the Maritime Alps

open access: yesCurtis's Botanical Magazine, Volume 42, Issue 3, Page 355-368, September 2025.
Summary The three taxa of the Fritillaria tubaeformis group are illustrated here. These plants are narrow endemic geophytes of the Alpine chain, where they are rare and representative of the subalpine grasslands, a very diverse and heterogeneous mosaic of habitats.

Le volume d’herbe disponible par vache : un indicateur synthétique pour évaluer et conduire un pâturage tournant

open access: yesINRAE Productions Animales, 2000
Gérer un système de pâturage nécessite de définir de manière cohérente trois types de règles. Les règles de planification s’appuient le plus souvent sur des référentiels régionaux (chargement par saison en fonction des apports d’azote).

Reduced temporal turnover in carabid communities enhances biomass stability in agricultural landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 7, Page 1410-1421, July 2025.
The interannual stability of the carabid biomass in agricultural fields can be maximised by supporting the in‐field mean alpha‐richness that reduces their temporal beta‐diversity. Increasing crop phenology diversity at the landscape level also stabilises carabid biomass over time. Abstract While the temporal stability of plant communities has been well

Préférences et sélection alimentaire au pâturage

open access: yesINRAE Productions Animales, 1996
L’animal exprime ses préférences alimentaires quand il se trouve dans une situation de choix non contraignante. En pratique, une telle situation existe rarement dans les conditions habituelles du pâturage.

Advancing transdisciplinary research on Madagascar's grassy biomes to support resilience in ecosystems and livelihoods

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 95, Issue 2, May 2025.
Abstract Grassy biomes (savanna and grasslands) are globally extensive and host a unique biodiversity that is of central importance to human livelihoods. We focus here on the island of Madagascar—a microcosm of the global tropics, covered in 80% grassy biomes—to illustrate how transdisciplinary approaches to research can clarify ecosystem dynamics ...
