Nest Survival Models and Genomics Illuminate Hybridisation Attempts, Guiding Culturally Informed Management to Recover a Critically Endangered Seabird

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Long‐term monitoring has revealed hybridisation attempts between the Critically Endangered Kuaka Whenua Hou (KWH, Pelecanoides whenuahouensis) and the abundant Kuaka (P. urinatrix). Here we use modelling based on population monitoring data in tandem with genomic data to investigate these attempts and the risk they pose to KWH recovery.

Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

Democratising Multi‐Projector Displays

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Spatially augmented reality (SAR) transforms large, surround, collaborative experiences out of VR/AR headsets to the real world by merging content from projectors with the physical environment. This detailed state‐of‐the‐art survey reports on the advancements in multi‐projector aggregation and hardware technologies used to achieve SAR and build ...

Single Line Drawing Generation via Semantics‐Driven Optimization

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present a method for automatically generating single‐line drawings in vector format, guided by a text prompt or an input image. Our approach leverages score distillation sampling to optimize the parameters of a uniform rational B‐spline (URBS) curve, ensuring that the drawing consists of a single continuous stroke by design.

‘I like to dance with the flowers!’: Exploring the possibilities for biodiverse futures in an urban forest school

open access: yesChildren &Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores the ways in which ‘forest school’, an educational approach where children engage in creative and play based activities in a ‘natural’ environment, can contribute towards Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG 15) by promoting sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and by helping address biodiversity loss. Drawing on data

Estimating the total mortality of seabirds following a marine heat wave

open access: yesConservation 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.

What climate adaptation can learn from evolutionary adaptation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Evolutionary and climate adaptation both describe how complex systems respond to environmental change, either via natural selection or deliberate human choices. Although adaptation in both contexts is expected to produce favorable outcomes, it can also result in maladaptation—ineffective, unintended, or harmful outcomes. As an emerging area of
