To help ensure the growth and persistence of frog populations, we quantified changes in frog occurrence as a function of concurrent changes in land cover in the surrounding landscape of eight marsh‐breeding frog species, or groups of species. We used data from the Great Lakes Marsh Monitoring Program delivered by Birds Canada at 377 sites across four ...

Style Brush: Guided Style Transfer for 3D Objects
We introduce Style Brush, a guided 3D style‐transfer method for textured meshes that provides precise creative control. It supports the use of multiple style images, smooth transitions and intuitive guidance, producing visually appealing textures that follow user intent as we demonstrate in our user study and results. Abstract We introduce Style Brush,

To understand the range‐wide drivers of Arizona Toad distribution and anticipate future changes, we combined 13 datasets covering distinct portions of the range in an integrated species distribution model. We estimate that the current occupied range is 1/4–1/3 of previously defined range boundaries and that increasingly dry conditions will lead to ...

Lévy–Khintchine Representation of Toader–Qi Mean
In the paper, by virtue of a Lévy–Khintchine representation and an alternative integral representation for the weighted geometric mean, the authors establish a Lévy–Khintchine representation and an alternative integral representation for the Toader–Qi mean.

Nutritional Stress Modulates Developmental Thresholds in a Male Dimorphic Mite
Global warming can alter nutrition during development, but whether this affects phenotype expression solely through changes in condition or also through developmental decision‐making remains unclear. In the male‐dimorphic bulb mite Rhizoglyphus robini, nutritional stress shifted the developmental threshold for fighter versus scrambler expression and ...

ABSTRACT The study explores the effect of digitalisation on corruption and on human development in Sub‐Sahara Africa (SSA) and its subregions. The fixed effects and Hausman–Taylor techniques and data for 33 SSA countries are used. We find that digitalisation has a nonlinear effect on corruption and on human development.

This study investigates the rapid expansion, genetic structure, and phenotypic traits of two non‐native ictalurids, Ameiurus nebulosus and Ameiurus melas, within the under‐researched Dnipro River basin, Ukraine. Integrating mtDNA COI barcoding with morphological DAPC analysis, we provide the first molecularly verified record of A.

Flash Behaviour Does Not Help Rabbits Evade Human Predators
European rabbits display their white‐tail when running, but are otherwise cryptic when resting or foraging‐ but the function of this conspicuous colouration is unclear. This white‐tail could act as ‘flash behaviour’‐ an obvious marker shown to predators but then suddenly hidden causing the predator to lose track of the prey. We tested this using edited

Fine‐scale population variables better explain roadkill patterns in natterjack toads (Epidalea calamita) than habitat proxies, with mortality driven mainly by local abundance, reduced by roadside embankments, and decreasing as the season advanced. Despite high roadkills, population viability analyses indicate no immediate extinction risk under current ...
