The Role of Transit Countries in Global Wildlife Trafficking [PDF]

open access: yes
This thesis explores the role of transit countries in the global trade of illegal wildlife. While much research has been conducted on source and destination countries, transit countries remain an under-researched link in this chain, even though they play

Blind Source Separation via Time‐Frequency Localization on Sound Spectrogram for Environmental Sound Source Attribution

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As urban sound environments grow more complex, environmental monitoring increasingly demands not just sound‐level measurement but also source attribution. Current source recognition techniques can identify which sources are present in a mixture, but cannot measure each source's energy contribution, making accountability impossible.

Reproductive success under constraints: Does increased maternal activity during lactation offset poor habitat and individual quality in an income breeder?

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐induced environmental modifications may alter forage access and, hence, how animals manage energy trade‐offs during critical periods. Reproduction, especially lactation, is the most energetically costly process for female mammals.

From foraging to decomposition: Large vertebrates as biotic drivers of trace element cycling across landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
We highlight an overlooked pathway in ecosystem functioning: the role of animal carcass decomposition in trace element cycling. By linking animal life cycles to landscape‐scale processes, we explain how large animals redistribute scarce elements and influence spatial heterogeneity, with implications for ecosystem functioning and restoration.

ACCOUNTING FOR BIODIVERSITY: Periphery Urbanization, Environmental Conflict, and Spatial Inequality in Monetizing the Value of Nature

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In terms of mainstream sustainability economics, market‐led initiatives aimed at biodiversity restoration represent a productive, morally conscientious choice. Under this view, efforts in areas such as biodiversity offsetting, net gain, or finance are considered effective tools for preventing or managing environmental degradation.

Do targeted, place‐based educational campaigns influence citizen engagement and violent crime? A quasi‐experiment of the alert conscience technique of situational crime prevention

open access: yesCriminology &Public Policy, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Between 2021 and 2024, the Mecklenburg County (NC) Department of Public Health's Office of Violence Prevention launched two targeted media campaigns in response to high rates of community violence. The first used geofencing: virtual geographic boundaries that deliver targeted advertisements to mobile devices.

Habitat Features, Coyotes, and Humans Drive Diel Activity Variation Among Sympatric Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We found that multiple mammal species show considerable variation in diel activity in response to several factors, with biotic variables (habitat features and the presence of coyotes Canis latrans) having the strongest overall effects. Our results have important implications for trophic dynamics. Future studies will need to account for these underlying
