How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

T(w)o Patch or Not T(w)o Patch: A Novel Biocontrol Model
ABSTRACT A number of top‐down biocontrol models have been proposed where the introduced predators' efficacy is enhanced via the provision of additional food (AF). However, if the predator has a pest‐dependent monotone functional response, pest extinction is unattainable. In the current manuscript, we propose a model where a predator with pest‐dependent

The workflow is presented that helps to optimize grid‐cell size by breakpoint search and to estimate the area of occupancy (AOO) more precisely, if the occurrence data are incomplete. The model was validated on 13 colubrid snakes found in Georgia. The scripts in R and full statistical workflow are provided in the paper and the Supporting Information ...

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.

We applied two global biodiversity indices at a city scale and revealed significant declines in odonate and amphibian populations in freshwater systems over several decades. Our study demonstrates the effectiveness of both indices as a baseline for fulfil urban‐related biodiversity framework targets if suitable biodiversity time series are available ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Spring or rain‐fed ponds are frequent features on US mid‐Atlantic farms. The need to conduct preharvest agricultural water assessments to identify microbial hazards, as required by the US Produce Safety Rule, highlights knowledge gaps pertaining to pond water adequacy for vegetable production.

Effects of off‐highway vehicle activity on Arizona wildlife: a systematic literature review
The published literature indicates that off‐highway vehicles (OHVs) predominantly negatively affect native Arizona amphibians, mammals, and reptiles, while effects of OHVs on native Arizona birds are mostly unknown or neutral. Abstract Off‐highway vehicle (OHV) recreation has dramatically increased in Arizona, USA, prompting concerns about potential ...
