Fruit use and fruit processing by euphonias, specialized avian frugivores
Oikos, EarlyView.Euphonias (Neotropical passerines in the genera Euphonia and Chlorophonia) form the quintessential example of a specialized avian frugivore, combining a high reliance on fruit as food and the restriction of fruit taxa exploited. To understand their specialization, we explored the integration of fruit morphological and nutritional traits with their ...

Recovering nutrients from urine – A golden opportunity for sustainable fertiliser production
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Agricultural industrialisation has led to levels of nutrients in the environment that are well above safe operating limits, yet fertiliser use is necessary to feed a growing population. The recovery of nutrients from human urine in large, developed cities may offset some of the ecological and economic impacts associated with fertiliser production, as ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT River infrastructures such as weirs, dams, inlet and outlet regulators often impair connectivity, leading to degradation and loss of key habitats for riverine fishes. This also holds true for golden perch (Macquaria ambigua Richardson), a migratory species in Australia's Murray–Darling Basin.
