A Similarity Law for Sandy Tsunami Deposits

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Herein, a basic relation between tsunami size and sandy tsunami deposits, i.e., a similarity law for sandy tsunami deposits, was derived by integrating the advantages of empirical and theoretical inverse modeling and forward modeling. Two concepts were introduced: (a) defining the involved deposition distance (Ld) based on the pickup and ...

Comparing impacts of fragmentation on bird functional and phylogenetic diversity in primary and secondary rainforests

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 7, Page 1674-1684, July 2025.
We show that compensatory patterns of species introduction fail to account for the loss of ecosystem functions due to the decline of forest‐dependent birds. As such, conservation policies should be targeted towards species that share traits associated with disturbance sensitivity, such as insectivory, ground foraging and low dispersal ability.

Do Eucalypt Species Display Similar Potential Niche Patterns to North American Trees?

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT A 2024 paper in Science described the realised and potential thermal niches of 188 North American tree species in terms of mean annual temperature (MAT). Using PlantSearch data from outside species‐native distributions, it was found that species potential niches displayed a ‘centrifugal organisation’ of thermal niches.

Eyes Offshore: Reporting the Eye Health Needs of Refugees and Asylum Seekers in Australia's Offshore Detention Centres

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, Volume 53, Issue 5, Page 457-469, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background In the last two decades, over 250 000 refugees and asylum seekers have arrived in Australia, many of whom experience significant health problems. Information about their eye health is scarce, particularly for those detained offshore. This is the first study to explore the eye health and services available to this population, helping

Genomic Footprints of Ancient Multi‐Species Introgression Events Among Allopatric Australo‐Papuan Butcherbird Species

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change has influenced the evolution of the world's biota, shaping species distributions, promoting diversification and causing extinctions. The turbulent climatic oscillations of the Pleistocene, which caused repeated periods of isolation and secondary contact, have left lasting signatures on the genomes of species across the world.
