Tree cover limits occupancy of a declining game bird

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Open forest ecosystems are considered one of the most imperiled ecosystems in North America and many associated avian species are experiencing population declines. Management at large and impactful scales is challenging on private lands due to fragmentation and resource limitations, but public lands are often larger in scale and offer opportunities for

Documenting den characteristics of bears and wolves in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem using LIDAR technology

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Previous studies have documented den site characteristics through physical measurements recorded by researchers in the field. Using the light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensor onboard an Apple iPad Pro, we scanned the interior of black and grizzly bear dens (n = 9) located in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) to generate point clouds of den ...

Experimental assessment of containers running on top of virtual machines

IET Networks, Volume 14, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
In this paper, the performance of containers running on top of virtual machines is experimentally compared with standalone virtual machines and containers based on different hardware resources, including the processor, main memory, disk, and network in a real testbed by running the most commonly used benchmarks.

A pan‐European citizen science study shows population size, climate and land use are related to biased morph ratios in the heterostylous plant Primula veris

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.
A large‐scale citizen science study involving thousands of cowslip (Primula veris) observations from all over Europe revealed an unexpected prevalence of S‐morphs over L‐morphs, which was influenced by climatic as well as land use factors. Furthermore, general morph ratios were often unbalanced with the strongest shifts occurring in smaller populations.

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Cytisus scoparius*

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.
Broom is an attractive and common native plant across Britain, Ireland and most of Europe, and yet it is considered a harmful and invasive weed around the rest of the world. This is aided by broom thriving on poor dry soils, helped by using green stems for photosynthesis and having root nodules to fix nitrogen.

Remote sensing reveals inter‐ and intraspecific variation in riparian cottonwood (Populus spp) response to drought

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.
Leaf‐level spectroscopy and canopy‐level UAV thermal data captured inter‐ and intraspecific responses to water stress in cottonwoods, which are widely distributed in arid environments. This study demonstrates the potential of remote sensing to monitor and predict the impacts of drought on scales varying from leaves to landscapes. Abstract Understanding

Spatially nested species distribution models (N‐SDM): An effective tool to overcome niche truncation for more robust inference and projections

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.
N‐SDMs are key tools to develop untruncated regional climate change forecasts of species distributions at fine resolution over restricted extents. While several N‐SDM approaches were proposed, there is currently no universal solution suggesting that further developments and testing are crucial if we are to derive robust future projections of species ...

More than fruity scents: Pollination biology, scent, and spectral reflectance of Annonaceae species

Plant Species Biology, EarlyView.
We characterised the floral visual and olfactory cues of numerous Annonaceae species and reported their pollinators. We further assessed the olfactory space of most Annonaceae species available in the literature. Abstract The family Annonaceae possesses a broad array of floral phenotypes and pollination specializations, and are important in the plant ...

Elite Status‐Seeking and Class Reproduction in Civil Society: An Analysis of Corporate Elite Appointments to Charity Boards

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the relationship between economic elites and civil society by analysing the appointments of corporate elites to the boards of charitable companies in the UK. Whilst previous research has usually focused on who among the corporate elite hold positions in key civil society organisations, and the extent to which these ...
