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

Bridging the Age Gap: a prognostic model that predicts survival and aids in primary treatment decisions for older women with oestrogen receptor‐positive early breast cancer

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 12, Page 1625-1632, November 2020., 2020
A new prognostic model is presented, targeted at women aged 70 years and older with early invasive breast cancer. Unlike existing models for adjuvant therapy decisions, the model supports the decision whether to have primary surgery; it explores the use of frailty and co‐morbidity for modelling other‐cause mortality, which is important for this age ...
