ABSTRACT In a move away from exclusive use by modality, a number of shared tramping and mountain biking tracks have been developed in New Zealand. We ask: On shared tracks, what tensions arise and how are they experienced? Using data from online surveys of track‐users, we examine bikers' and trampers' perspectives and experiences of conflict.

This research shows high gastrointestinal parasitic infections in the endangered Himalayan musk deer, indicating a significant risk of cross‐transmission from sympatric livestock (chauri and horses). Moreover, distinct host‐specific parasite dominance and habitat‐dependent infection patterns accentuate the need for minimising livestock‐wildlife contact

ABSTRACT High‐elevation ecosystems are among the most sensitive to climate change, responding more rapidly than low‐elevation environments. However, few studies have shown the effects of climate change on grass species in these environments. Among them, Apochloa molinioides and Trichanthecium wettsteinii (Poaceae) are notable for occurring in high ...

ABSTRACT This article examines how Indigenous Paĩ Tavyterã/Kaiowa communities along the Paraguay–Brazil border navigate illicit economies that have proliferated amid the expansion of soybean agribusiness and the withdrawal of the state. Drawing on long‐term ethnographic fieldwork in several communities on both sides of the border, it explores how ...

ABSTRACT Digital elevation models (DEMs) are widely used to characterize terrain and support applications ranging from geomorphology to environmental management. While traditional analyses rely on handcrafted geomorphometric features, advances in machine learning enable richer, data‐driven representations of topographic surfaces.

The evidence base for ranger patrol effectiveness in conservation and how to improve it
ABSTRACT Ranger patrols are a cornerstone of wildlife protection efforts around the world and occur across all ecological governance systems. Evidence that patrols reduce threats to wildlife and enable their recovery has not been systematically examined previously.

Biases in butterfly survey effort and patterns of protocol used across biogeographic regions
Abstract Butterflies are widely recognized as effective bioindicators due to their short life cycles, close associations with specific host plants, and rapid responses to environmental change. They are comparatively easier to identify than many other insect groups, making them valuable for biodiversity monitoring. Despite this, there is no consensus or

We modelled multi‐scale habitat use for chimpanzee feeding/travelling, nesting, and human hunting in the Seringbara region of Mount Nimba (Guinea) using GPS data with GLMs and boosted regression trees. Chimpanzee activity concentrated above 750 m on steeper slopes with high EVI, hunting was less prevalent in dense tree cover, both avoided research ...

Evaluation of modified four-component scattering power decomposition method over highly rugged glaciated terrain [PDF]
In recent years, there has been increased utilization of fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (POLSAR) data to study glaciated terrain features for glaciological and climate change modelling.
