Problematising ‘Vulnerability’ in Women's Prisons

The Howard Journal of Crime and Justice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ‘Vulnerability’ is a commonly used but little understood term in the field of social policy and beyond. The refocusing of our criminal justice system around notions of ‘vulnerability’ has had wide‐reaching consequences which often escape both academic and political attention.

Wood Thrush (Hylocichla mustelina) occupancy patterns reveal sensitivity to low precipitation on nonbreeding grounds in northern Costa Rica

Ibis, EarlyView.
Climatic change and anthropogenic disturbances are reshaping animal populations. Habitat loss and extreme climatic events are particularly strong drivers of declines in species that depend on forested areas. For migratory songbirds, climate and the persistence of suitable habitat over time are fundamental to sustaining populations annually.

Continued population recovery and high annual survival rates of White‐rumped Vultures in Nepal

Ibis, EarlyView.
Populations of Gyps vultures in South Asia underwent catastrophic declines caused by unintentional poisoning by the veterinary drug diclofenac. Since the drug was banned in 2006–2010, declines have halted across the region, including in Nepal. The present study updates population trends of G.

Exploration speed in Red Knots affects spring migration timing, but only after experimentally constrained fuelling conditions

Ibis, EarlyView.
Individual variation in avian migration timing is still poorly understood, yet recent evidence shows that it is closely linked to personality traits and may also be affected by food availability. Here, we examined how the interaction of the personality trait exploration speed and food availability affected the departure timing of Red Knots Calidris ...

The former distribution of White‐tailed Eagles in Iberia, the Mediterranean and the Middle East: a case study of the importance of understanding historical distribution in informing current conservation and restoration interventions

Ibis, EarlyView.
The importance of considering historical data in developing conservation and restoration measures for individual species and for wider ecological restoration has been pointed out by recent reviews but often remains neglected in practice. This paper provides a case study illustrating the issue through a review of the former breeding distribution of the ...
