Scat as a source of DNA for population monitoring. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2022
Sampling fecal droppings (scat) to genetically identify individual animals is an established method for monitoring mammal populations and could be highly useful for monitoring reptile populations. Whereas existing protocols for obtaining DNA from reptile

Optimizing the automated recognition of individual animals to support population monitoring. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2023
Reliable estimates of population size and demographic rates are central to assessing the status of threatened species. However, obtaining individual‐based demographic rates requires long‐term data, which is often costly and difficult to collect ...

Quantitative phase microscopy for non-invasive live cell population monitoring. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2021
We present here a label-free development based on preexisting Quantitative Phase Imaging (QPI) that allows non-invasive live monitoring of both individual cells and cell populations.

Long-term population monitoring of a territorial forest raptor species. [PDF]

Sci Data, 2020
We provide field monitoring data of a territorial raptor (the booted eagle, Hieraaetus pennatus), that was intensively monitored over a period of 18 years (1998–2015) in a Mediterranean forested area of south-eastern Spain designated as a Special ...

Integrating data from different survey types for population monitoring of an endangered species: the case of the Eld's deer. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
Despite its value for conservation decision-making, we lack information on population abundances for most species. Because establishing large-scale monitoring schemes is rarely feasible, statistical methods that combine multiple data sources are ...

Increased capture efficiency of Scolytinae with modified semi-funnel trap model [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2022
Scolytinae species that, in high populations, can damage reducing wood production in forest crops. These beetles are monitored with traps baited with ethanol and increasing their efficiency can improve the integrated management of these insects.

Feral American mink Neogale vison continues to expand its European range: time to harmonise population monitoring and coordinate control

Mammal Review, 2023
The American mink Neogale vison is an invasive alien species in Europe that threatens endemic biodiversity and can transmit zoonotic diseases, including the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

A quantitative global review of species population monitoring

Conservation Biology, 2021
Species monitoring, defined here as the repeated, systematic collection of data to detect long‐term changes in the populations of wild species, is a vital component of conservation practice and policy.

Socio-economic inequality in anthropometric failure among children aged under 5 years in India: evidence from the Comprehensive National Nutrition Survey 2016–18

International Journal for Equity in Health, 2021
Background Conventional indicators used to access the nutritional status of children tend to underestimate the overall undernutrition in the presence of multiple anthropometric failures. Further, factors contributing to the rich-poor gap in the composite
