Post‐release settlement and resource selection by reintroduced Swift fox

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Monitoring post‐release dispersal of reintroduced wildlife informs management strategies to improve outcomes. In previous Swift fox (Vulpes velox) reintroductions, post‐release movements corresponded with survival and have been a metric for success of release strategies, but settlement patterns and resource selection by individuals from different ...

Differences in apple fruit shape are independent of fruit size

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 8, Issue 1, December 2025.
Abstract Fruit quality is crucial in breeding new apple varieties. Before tasting, consumers assess freshness and flavor based on the physical appearance of fruit. Understanding how fruit quality traits such as shape and size vary across diverse apples [Malus domestica (Suckow) Borkh.] provides a foundation for future breeding efforts.

The current state of peas in the United Kingdom; diversity, heritage and food systems

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1235-1244, September 2025.
Landraces and traditional pea varieties hold great potential for enhancing agrobiodiversity and promoting pulse consumption, offering a rich historical and cultural resource for the UK food system. Unfortunately, many traditional pea varieties are lost, and those saved are often kept in seed banks or used only by small‐scale growers.

Expert identification blitz: A rapid high value approach for assessing and improving iNaturalist identification accuracy and data precision and confidence

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1469-1484, September 2025.
Citizen science data are increasingly used in research and conservation, so assessing and improving data accuracy is important. We recruited 50 experts to review a dataset of Western Australian plant records from iNaturalist. Across three weeks, almost 11,000 records received at least one identification.

Imputation of Fisheries Reference Points for Endangered Data‐Poor Fishes, With Application to Rhino Rays

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 848-865, September 2025.
ABSTRACT For data‐limited fish species, sustainable management frequently relies on biological metrics that are derived from life‐history trait data, as opposed to high‐resolution time series of catch and abundance. These biological metrics are used to assess a species' recovery potential at low population densities, as well as their extinction risk ...

Identifying and Evaluating Salt‐Tolerant Halophytes Along a Tropical Coastal Zone: Growth Response and Desalination Potential

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Littoral soils along Ghana's coastal zones, hosting diverse halophytes with multiple potential applications, contain significant salt content due to seawater influence. This study identified and explored the nutritional, ecological, and medicinal significance of these halophytes, focusing on their salt tolerance and desalination abilities ...

Australian geography’s challenges and community‐based learned societies in its future

Geographical Research, Volume 63, Issue 3, Page 311-325, August 2025.
Geography remains more relevant than ever, yet it faces challenges in Australia. Voluntary, community‐based learned societies like the Royal Geographical Societies of South Australia and Queensland are crucial in promoting geography’s value, advocating for education, fostering research, and engaging the public.
