Supporting pollinators, resisting policy: The role of environmental attitudes and psychological reactance among farmers

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding how psychological constructs shape farmers' views on agri‐environmental policy and the role of pollinators in agriculture can help design effective and legitimate agricultural policies. While farmers are key actors in pollinator conservation, recent farmer protests indicate that their support for agri‐environmental policies such ...

Good days, bad days: Weather patterns driving bryophyte carbon‐exchange dynamics in tropical rainforest canopies

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The physiology of tropical mosses, liverworts and lichens may be challenged by the daily weather patterns in lowland rainforests. Since these poikilohydric organisms can only photosynthesize and respire when hydrated, unfavourable timing of light and water availability (

Precipitation shapes colour polymorphism in a widespread spider

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Colour polymorphism, the presence of multiple colour variants within a population, is a common example of intraspecific phenotypic variation and has served as a model for studying drivers of diversity.

From steps to home ranges: How habitat disturbance influences the movement drivers of an arboreal primate

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Challenging the narrative about howler monkeys' high resilience to anthropogenic changes, our multiscale analysis reveals the costs of habitat disturbance to their movement ecology. We identify thermal limitations, reduced travel efficiency, and significant spatial saturation.

Early‐life environment drives long‐term decrease in adult body mass in a wild bird population

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using more than 90,000 body mass measures of adult and nestling great tits Parus major, we show that the 1 SD decline in adult mass between 1978 and 2024 is a consequence of changes in the environment (i.e. increase in population density) experienced at early life.

geohabnet: An R package for mapping habitat connectivity for biosecurity and conservation

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Habitat connectivity is critical for the conservation of endangered and endemic species, and conversely, it can hinder efforts to contain the spread of harmful biological agents. Here, we introduce geohabnet: a general, spatially explicit, network‐based R package for evaluating, estimating and mapping landscape connectivity from continuous ...

A method to estimate actual infrastructure‐induced mortality by integrating hierarchical sources of imperfect detection

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Human infrastructures are among the most impactful wildlife threats. Although estimates of animal mortality by these structures exist over a given period, they typically do not account for several levels of imperfect detection (i.e. difference between recorded and true mortality).

ITSxRust: ITS Region extraction with partial‐chain recovery and structured diagnostics for long‐read amplicon sequencing

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐read amplicon sequencing is now routine for fungal metabarcoding, and locating the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) subregions within reads has become a throughput bottleneck. Existing extractors were designed for shorter reads and for datasets in which near‐identical sequences are common, and neither assumption holds for Oxford Nanopore

Standardizing assessment of novel methods for ecological data collection

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Methodological advances in ecology enable more efficient data collection, yet researchers need to clearly and consistently report the ways in which these methods benefit their own research within the context of their specific needs. Here, we advocate for greater standardization and transparency when assessing new ecological data collection ...
