Urbanisation and human activities influence the co‐occurrence of red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris and meso‐carnivores in Berlin, Germany

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban expansion is a major driver of habitat fragmentation, shrinking wildlife habitat, and restricting wildlife movements and activity patterns. In this novel environment, species must adapt to the new composition of wildlife communities. For example, red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris are commonly found in urban environments, while their potential ...

Field test of assumptions for using line transect distance sampling on rock ptarmigan

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Reliable population estimates are essential for the management of harvested species. Line transect distance sampling using pointing dogs is an established survey method for willow ptarmigan and has also been proposed for the monitoring of rock ptarmigan.

Effects of complex soundscapes on the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula in isolated green spaces in Tokyo

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban green spaces experience a mix of natural and anthropogenic noises, which could disrupt the vocal communication of several species. This study investigated how such complex soundscapes affect the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula, which communicates through calls, focusing on both sound level and quality.

A simulation of rainfall interception in a pine forest

, 1983
The water budget of forests is an important topic in hydrology today. A major factor in this water budget is interception loss, that is the loss by evaporation of intercepted water. The process of rainfall interception in forests is satisfactorily described by the models of Rutter et al. (1971) and Gash (1979).

Abundance and occupancy trends of sooty grouse in western Oregon: determining best modeling practices by comparing observed and simulated data

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Sooty grouse Dendragapus fuliginosus are large game birds that occupy montane forests in the Pacific Northwest, USA. These forests have been altered by human activities, which have been shown to have both positive and negative impacts on local populations.

Evaluation of runoff and interception of rainfall

, 2015
The objectives of this study were to quantify the surface runoff in different soil covers; analyze the effect of the forest on water interception and on erosion control; discuss the factors affecting water dynamics in experimental plots.
