Using functionally representative bird species and passive acoustic monitoring to model ecological variation across a land use mosaic in a dryland system

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Birds, through their wide range of functional traits, can serve as useful indicators of ecological change. Monitoring them across spatial scales has been considerably enhanced through passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and automated call identification.

Successes and opportunities for solutions‐oriented conservation research: Lessons learned from avian science

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
Conservation science struggles with an ongoing divide between research and action. We discussed examples of successful solutions‐oriented avian conservation science. Successes were characterized by communication, collaboration, and co‐development with local communities, decision‐makers, practitioners, and Indigenous communities.

Geolocation with a magnetic sensor

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 2395-2407, August 2026.
Abstract Many migratory animals use spatial variation in the Earth's magnetic field for orientation and navigation. This raises the possibility of exploiting these same cues to geolocate and track migratory animals throughout their annual journeys. Magnetic‐based geolocation could be particularly valuable for small aerial and aquatic species, for which

Wetland birds of middle Vistula River during breeding season: the impact of human activities on the distribution, abundance and richness of species

Studia Ecologiae et Bioethicae, 2020
The inventory of birds was conducted in the years 2005-2010 on the Vistula River section between Dęblin (km 388 of the river) and Podwierzbie (km 435 of the river). The study area includes a southern section of the European Ecological Natura 2000 Site in

Application of a novel molecular diagnostic method to examine the spatio‐temporal trends of Carcelia iliaca, a larval parasitoid of oak processionary moth (Thaumetopoea processionea)

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 348-356, August 2026.
The oak processionary moth is an invasive pest in the United Kingdom that threatens biodiversity and public health, with rising control costs highlighting the need for sustainable management alternatives Conservation biocontrol using the parasitoid fly Carcelia iliaca is promising but key biological data gaps hinder evidence‐based policy development. A

Nest Bacterial Environment Affects Microbiome of Hoopoe Eggshells, but Not That of the Uropygial Secretion.

PLoS ONE, 2016
The study of associations between symbiotic bacterial communities of hosts and those of surrounding environments would help to understand how bacterial assemblages are acquired, and how they are transmitted from one to another location (i.e.

Threats to Nature's Contributions to People Provided by Terrestrial Vertebrates Across Europe

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Species and ecosystem processes provide essential benefits to people, known as Nature's Contributions to People (NCP). However, we still lack a comprehensive understanding of NCP provided by terrestrial vertebrates on a macroecological scale, and of the threats they face. To address this, we built a comprehensive dataset that documents the
