Perceived costs as drivers of wildlife management preferences in rural Tanzanian communities

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effectively managing human–wildlife interactions is crucial for fostering coexistence on shared landscapes. Management options are most effective when aligned with the preferences of people directly affected by wildlife, yet little is known about how socioecological factors influence these preferences.

Monitoring wildlife health for diseases with visible signs by integrating camera traps with marked individuals

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring wildlife health is essential for conservation and management, wildlife and livestock welfare, and public health in a One Health framework. Yet, wildlife health monitoring often requires long‐term fieldwork and intensive sampling, which can be costly or logistically challenging, especially for remote, rare, or elusive populations. To

Solutions for 10,000 Eclipsing Binaries in the Bulge Fields of OGLE II Using DEBiL

, 2005
We have developed a fully-automated pipeline for systematically identifying and analyzing eclipsing binaries within large datasets of light curves. The pipeline is made up of multiple tiers which subject the light curves to increasing levels of scrutiny.

Gas distribution, kinematics and star formation in faint dwarf galaxies [PDF]

, 2005
We compare the gas distribution, kinematics and the current star formation in a sample of 10 very faint (-13.37 < M_B < -9.55) dwarf galaxies. For 5 of these galaxies we present fresh, high sensitivity, GMRT HI 21cm observations.

The variability of giraffe skull morphology

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
What does giraffe skull shape tell us about their development and evolution? Abstract Giraffe (Giraffa spp.) are among the most unique and charismatic extant animals, largely due to their distinct morphology. The evolutionary and developmental origin of ossicones is a key factor in giraffid biology, yet other features building their characteristic head

Three editions of the Star Catalogue of Tycho Brahe

, 2010
Tycho Brahe completed his catalogue with the positions and magnitudes of 1004 fixed stars in 1598. This catalogue circulated in manuscript form. Brahe edited a shorter version with 777 stars, printed in 1602, and Kepler edited the full catalogue of 1004 ...

Adaptive data collection strategies for spatial capture–recapture monitoring: Linking monitoring approaches to seasonal variation in density and space use

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April/June 2026.
Effective monitoring of wildlife populations is critical for conservation, but long‐term, large‐scale efforts are often limited, leading to inconsistent and disconnected site‐based data. This study evaluated adaptable, search–encounter data collection strategies for lions (Panthera leo) in Nairobi National Park across three surveys (2018, 2021 and 2022)

Recent science results with the two-telescope IOTA [PDF]

, 2002
The IOTA (Infrared Optical Telescope Array) has been routinely operating with two-telescopes since 1994, a mode destined to become obsolete following its recent conversion to a three-telescope array.

First Vasectomy Procedure Successfully Performed on a Southern African Male Giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis giraffa)

Zoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 195-202, March/April 2026.
First successful vasectomy in a southern African male giraffe, Giraffa camelopardis giraffa ABSTRACT This study reports the first successful vasectomy on a southern African male giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis giraffa). The goal of the procedure was to create a teaser male for reproductive studies.

Nova-like Cataclysmic Variables in the Infrared [PDF]

, 2014
Novalike cataclysmic variables have persistently high mass transfer rates and prominent steady state accretion disks. We present an analysis of infrared observations of twelve novalikes obtained from the Two Micron All Sky Survey, the Spitzer Space ...
