Movement Ecology, 2020 Background Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) is a pathogen vectored by Culicoides midges that causes significant economic loss in the cervid farming industry and affects wild deer as well. Despite this, its ecology is poorly understood. Studying

Revisiting the evidentiary basis for ecological cascades with conservation impacts
Conservation Letters, 2022 Complex ecological interactions are widely utilized to deliver conservation benefits but their efficacy is often debated. Using a coral reef trophic cascade as an example, we reveal that outcomes can be surprisingly difficult to detect.

Predicting bird diversity through acoustic indices within the Atlantic Forest biodiversity hotspot
Frontiers in Remote Sensing, 2023 The increasing conversion of natural areas for anthropic land use has been a major cause of habitat loss, destabilizing ecosystems and leading to a biodiversity crisis.

Spatial ecology across scales [PDF]
Biology Letters, 2010 The international conference ‘Models in population dynamics and ecology 2010: animal movement, dispersal and spatial ecology’ took place at the University of Leicester, UK, on 1–3 September 2010, focusing on mathematical approaches to spatial population dynamics and emphasizing cross-scale issues. Exciting new developments in scaling up from individual

Behavioural ecology at the spatial-social interface
Biological Reviews, 2022 ABSTRACTSpatial and social behaviour are fundamental aspects of an animal's biology, and their social and spatial environments are indelibly linked through mutual causes and shared consequences. We define the ‘spatial–social interface’ as intersection of social and spatial aspects of individuals' phenotypes and environments.

Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background Dengue is a disease that has undergone significant expansion over the past hundred years. Understanding what factors limit the distribution of transmission can be used to predict current and future limits to further dengue expansion. While not

Factors influencing scavenger guilds and scavenging efficiency in Southwestern Montana
Scientific Reports, 2021 Scavenging of carrion shapes ecological landscapes by influencing scavenger population demography, increasing inter- and intra-specific interactions, and generating ecosystem services such as nutrient cycling and disease moderation.

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Understanding the historical causes of species endangerment is vital, yet difficult. The Hainan gibbon Nomascus hainanus has declined in numbers dramatically in the last century, resulting in a single population on Hainan Island in China.
