Experimental and field evidence indicate that islet‐nesting tundra birds experience reduced nest predation and benefit indirectly from high snow goose densities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Landscape features can shape the occurrence and strength of predator–prey interactions by influencing predation risk and prey distribution. In the High Arctic, some bird species select nesting sites with physical features that impede access for their main terrestrial predator, the Arctic fox.

A recipe for recovery: diet as a decisive tool in species conservation

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animals consume foods in specific quantities and ratios to meet a multi‐dimensional nutrient target that maximizes their fitness. Attempts to reach this target in an ever‐changing nutritional landscape often influence animal foraging behavior, habitat choice, and food‐web interactions. Consequently, understanding the nutritional ecology of a species is

Bushmeat consumption frequency and preferences among rural households in a West African savanna landscape: Implications for food security and conservation

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The drivers of consumer demand for bushmeat are relatively well studied in tropical forest systems, but much less so in savanna areas. This is important because differing ecological and socio‐economic conditions lead to different factors affecting the relationship between local communities and their natural resources.

Sepiolite Nanofibers Decorated With Zn Single Sites: A Sustainable Filler for Mechanically Robust and Self‐Healing Ionomeric Elastomer Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Fabrication of XNBR nanocomposites reinforced with Zn single‐site decorated sepiolite nanofibers. The resulting composites exhibit high mechanical strength and self‐healing performance, driven by dynamic interactions between the Zn single sites and the XNBR chains (inset).
