Understanding thermal conditions provides context for the influence of habitat characteristics on gamebird winter ecology

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The fundamental niche of an organism is regulated partially by its ability to cope with a range of thermal environments, which can be directly influenced by management across spatial scales and seasons. However, despite winter weather being a major source of mortality for many species in northern latitudes, the impact of thermal conditions on wintering

Selectivity and efficiency of predator control methods: a case study from a Mediterranean hunting ground

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Predator control is a widely used management tool worldwide to reduce the impact of opportunistic predatory species, but in some contexts where predators are controlled to reduce negative impacts on game species, there are concerns about the selectivity and efficiency.

A proof of concept for linking individual identity to camera traps

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Small mammal movements are difficult to monitor, both visually and with remote tracking devices, due to the animals' small body size and elusive behavior. Cameras deployed at fixed locations can provide continuous, non‐invasive records in natural habitats, yet camera‐derived indices remain sparsely validated and generally do not allow inference at the ...

Biology, ecology, and conservation of the Italian hare Lepus corsicanus: a review

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The Italian hare Lepus corsicanus, an endemic lagomorph of Italy, serves as a critical case study in evolutionary biology and conservation. Once taxonomically debated, modern genetic and morphological analyses confirm its status as a distinct Pleistocene lineage restricted to the central‐southern Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

Assessing the Influence of Interference Competition on Ecologically Similar Species Threatened by Habitat Loss 评估干扰性竞争对受栖息地丧失威胁的生态相似物种的影响

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We staged dyadic interaction trials between two kangaroo rat species threatened by habitat loss to test whether one species dominates in direct interactions in the field. We found that Stephens’ kangaroo rat (Dipodomys stephensi) residents and intruders were dominant over Dulzura kangaroo rat (Dipodomys simulans). These results suggest that D. simulans

Research on Ultra‐Wideband Pulse Current Method for DC Partial Discharge Measurement

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The conventional pulse current method is commonly used in AC or DC withstand voltage tests with partial discharge (PD) monitoring. Because of its relatively narrow measurement bandwidth, this method tends to ignore critical information in PD waveforms, making it difficult to eliminate pulse‐type interference under DC voltage conditions, where ...

An Overview of High‐Temperature Superconducting Cables in DC Systems: Unlocking Potential for High‐Voltage DC Networks

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper provides an overview of high‐temperature superconducting (HTS) cables in DC systems, with a focus on their deployment in high‐voltage DC (HVDC) networks. The assessment of HTS cable properties—such as extremely low electrical resistance, high current‐carrying capacity and a compact geometry—and their comparison with those of ...
