Seasonal variation in faecal glucocorticoid metabolite concentrations of two dominant southern African murids (Lemniscomys rosalia and Mastomys coucha) across variously transformed landscapes

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Global landscape transformations are a result of a growing human population and the subsequent increased use of natural habitats. Local species extinctions across various transformed landscapes emphasise the importance of monitoring wildlife responses to anthropogenic activities.

METAL ANOMALY PROSPECTION AT CERRADO. EXAMPLE FOR THE USE OF SI-PHYTOLITHS AT RIACHO DOS MACHADO REGION, MINAS GERAIS, BRAZIL.

open access: yesGeochimica Brasiliensis, 2018
The target area of this work is a heavy metal anomaly in the surroundings of a gold mine and a lead mining complex. This work investigated the distribution of selected heavy elements in soil samples and Si-Phytoliths from plants. The aim was to verify if

Jaguar Densities and Land Cover Change in a Multi‐Use Landscape: A 10‐Year Comparison in the Colombian Llanos 美洲豹种群密度与复合用地景观下的土地覆被变化:哥伦比亚亚诺斯地区10年比较研究

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We used spatially explicit capture‐recapture to estimate jaguar densities in a private reserve in the Colombian Llanos and quantified land cover change in and around the reserve from 2014 to 2024. Densities increased 22% since 2014, while disturbed land cover increased by 39%–54% around the reserve depending on buffer distance. Our study indicates that

De novo disruption of promoter and exon 1 of STAR gene reveals essential role for gonadal development

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism Case Reports, 2017
Cholesterol transport into the mitochondria is required for synthesis of the first steroid, pregnenolone. Cholesterol is transported by the steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (STAR), which acts at the outer mitochondrial membrane prior to its import.

Urban oases relax desiccation risk for an arid‐adapted lizard

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Urbanization from expanding human development has radically altered the structure, ecology and microclimate of landscapes worldwide. These dramatic environmental alterations subject organisms to novel ecological conditions and may select for distinct ecophysiological ...

Bat community assembly in the ecotone of two neotropical biodiversity hotspots is determined by environmental filtering rather than historical factors

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that environmental filtering is the primary mechanism shaping bat communities across the Cerrado–Atlantic Forest ecotone. By integrating phylogenetic diversity, environmental gradients, and coevolutionary assembly models, our study provides new insights into the processes maintaining biodiversity in a globally important transition zone ...

A reappraisal of the Middle to Later Stone Age prehistory of Morocco Réévaluer la préhistoire du Maroc, du Middle Stone Age au Later Stone Age

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Over the last 25 years, perceptions of the early prehistory of Northwest Africa have undergone radical changes due to new fieldwork projects and a corresponding growth in scientific interest in the region. Much of this work has been focused in Morocco, known for its extremely rich fossil and archaeological records in caves and rock shelters.
