Evaluation of camera trap‐based abundance estimators for unmarked populations

Ecological Applications.

author keywords: bait attraction; Boiga irregularis; brown treesnakes; density; Guam; invasive species; random encounter and staying time; sampling design; simulation; space to event; spatial capture-recapture
MeSH headings : Animals; Humans; Introduced Species; Population Density
TL;DR: The results indicate that, when limited to unmarked estimators and the use of lures, camera traps alone are unlikely to produce abundance estimates with utility for brown treesnake management, and all estimators for unmarked populations performed poorly. (via Semantic Scholar)

Demographic risk assessment for a harvested species threatened by climate change: polar bears in the Chukchi Sea

Ecological Applications.

author keywords: climate change; density dependence; habitat loss; harvest; polar bear; risk assessment; state-dependent management; subsistence; sustainability; Ursus maritimus
MeSH headings : Animals; Arctic Regions; Climate Change; Demography; Female; Ice Cover; Male; Risk Assessment; Ursidae / physiology
TL;DR: A novel population modeling-management framework that is based on species life history and accounts for habitat loss is applied to evaluate subsistence harvest for the Chukchi Sea (CS) polar bear subpopulation, finding that a harvest strategy with a starting total harvest rate of 2.7% would likely maintain subpopulation abundance above maximum net productivity level for the next 35 years.

Endemic and Threatened <i>Amazona</i> Parrots of the Atlantic Forest: An Overview of Their Geographic Range and Population Size

Diversity.

author keywords: Amazona; Psittacidae; species distribution models; data integration models; occupancy models; citizen-science; population size; count data
TL;DR: Four species of Amazona are studied that are dependent on a highly vulnerable biome: the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, and abundance estimates and counts are compiled, and site-occupancy models of their geographic range are developed. (via Semantic Scholar)

Bed site selection by female North American black bears (Ursus americanus)

Mansfield, S. A., Rogers, L. L., Robison, S., & Powell, R. A. (2021, December 15). JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY.

By: S. Mansfield*, L. Rogers*, S. Robison* & R. Powell n

author keywords: bear; bed site; predator avoidance; resource selection; rest site; Ursus americanus
TL;DR: Female bears with cubs selected upland bed sites more often than did females without cubs and also more often selected sites adjacent to a tree with coarse bark, which cubs could climb easily, especially a white pine. (via Semantic Scholar)

Human-provisioned foods reduce gut microbiome diversity in American black bears (Ursus americanus)

Gillman, S. J., McKenney, E. A., & Lafferty, D. J. R. (2021, December 27). JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, Vol. 12.

author keywords: baiting; hunter-harvest; host-microbiome; stable isotope analysis; wildlife policy
TL;DR: It was found that greater long-term consumption of human-provisioned foods was associated with significantly reduced microbial species richness and phylogenetic diversity, and consumption of anthropogenic foods through baiting significantly alters the mammalian gut microbiome.

eDNA‐based biomonitoring at an experimental German vineyard to characterize how management regimes shape ecosystem diversity

Environmental DNA, 3(1), 70–82.

TL;DR: Analysis of metabarcoding analysis of both soil and vane trap samples revealed that the species composition was significantly differentiated by management systems for both fungal and other taxa in both sample types. (via Semantic Scholar)

Phylogeography and population genetics of a widespread cold-adapted ant, Prenolepis imparis

TL;DR: High support for five major geographic lineages and lack of evidence of contemporary gene flow indicate in situ diversification across the species’ range, probably influenced by glacial cycles of the late Quaternary. (via Semantic Scholar)

Host Identity and Geographic Location Significantly Affect Gastrointestinal Microbial Richness and Diversity in Western Lowland Gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) under Human Care

ANIMALS, 11(12).

By: K. Eschweiler n, J. Clayton*, A. Moresco n, E. McKenney n, L. Minter n, M. Suhr Van Haute*, W. Gasper*, S. Hayer* ...

author keywords: gastrointestinal (GIT) microbiome; feces; human managed populations; western lowland gorilla
TL;DR: It is suggested that individuality contributes to most of the observed GI microbiome variation in the study populations, and determining individual baselines for microbial composition comparisons may be the most useful diagnostic tool for optimizing non-human primate health under human care.

A Bayesian Multilevel Ordinal Regression Model for Fish Maturity Data: Difference in Maturity Ogives of Skipjack Tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) Between Schools in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean

FRONTIERS IN MARINE SCIENCE, 8.

author keywords: maturity ogive; Bayesian multilevel ordinal regression; drifting fish aggregation devices (FADs); Katsuonus pelamis; ordinal measurement
TL;DR: The results indicate that fish aggregation devices (FADs) could negatively affect the maturity of K. pelamis and consequently reduce the population reproductive potential and implications for tuna fisheries management. (via Semantic Scholar)

Responsible Innovation Definitions, Practices, and Motivations from Nanotechnology Researchers in Food and Agriculture

NanoEthics, 15(3), 229–243.

author keywords: Responsible innovation; Nanotechnology; Food; Agriculture; Governance; Qualitative research
TL;DR: Investigating how researchers in the field of nanotechnology for food and agriculture (nano-agrifoods) define and practice RI, as well as what motivations they see for pursuing RI found that nano-agRifood researchers largely focused their descriptions of RI definitions, practices, and motivations around a narrow envisioning of the RI principle of anticipation — emphasizing product safety, efficacy, and efficiency.
