InterPLAY: A Framework to Describe Play and STEM Engagement at Exhibits for Young Children

Curator: The Museum Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Play‐based STEM learning at exhibits is a feature of children's museums and science centers; yet little is known about how these exhibits support young children's STEM engagement. This study developed and tested the interPLAY Framework to describe play‐based STEM engagement at exhibits for young children.

Urban Bats: City Lovers or Refugees?

Ethology, EarlyView.
Hypothetical relationship between urbanisation intensity and bat species population persistence framed through a species refuge concept. Moderately urbanised landscapes may function as temporal refuge zones where habitat heterogeneity and establishment suitability allow some bat species to colonise and persist.

Dragonfly taxonomic and functional responses to urbanized streams in southeastern Europe, with management recommendations

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Urbanization drives turnover in dragonfly species composition, traits, and habitat conservation value. Natural stream sections have a higher conservation value (higher DBI) due to presence of specialists. Properly managed urban streams can support diverse dragonfly assemblages.

Conservation Management Strategies Shape Glucocorticoid Levels in African Elephant Populations More Than Parasite Load

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
Understanding the factors influencing physiological stress is essential for interpreting how wildlife responds to contrasting environmental and management conditions. Across 19 South African elephant populations, we found that smaller reserves, self‐drive tourism, and high elephant density under low vegetation productivity were associated with elevated

Integrating Systematic and Opportunistic Camera Trap Data to Monitor Eurasian Lynx Demography

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.
By analysing 4201 Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) photographs collected over 14 monitoring seasons, we assess the potential and limitations of integrating systematic and opportunistic camera trap data. Our findings show that integrating opportunistic and systematic camera trap data collected year‐round enhances demographic monitoring of Eurasian lynx, likely
