Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 1756-1783, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Aim Roads are a major threat for wildlife, degrading habitat and causing mortality via wildlife–vehicle collisions. In Latin America, the conjunction of high biodiversity and a rapidly expanding road network is reason for concern. We introduce an approach that combines species traits and habitat preferences to describe vulnerability and map ...

Estimation of spatiotemporal trends in bat abundance from mortality data collected at wind turbines
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 227-238, February 2021., 2021 Abstract Renewable energy sources, such as wind energy, are essential tools for reducing the causes of climate change, but wind turbines can pose a collision risk for bats. To date, the population‐level effects of wind‐related mortality have been estimated for only 1 bat species. To estimate temporal trends in bat abundance, we considered wind turbines

Centralizing a national pancreatoduodenectomy service: striking the right balance
BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 904-913, October 2020., 2020 A complete 2‐year national cohort of pancreatoduodenectomies was analysed for a volume–outcome effect of postoperative complications, mortality and failure‐to‐rescue. Medium–low‐volume units (fewer than 40 procedures per year) performed on par with a high‐volume unit.
