Effects of vegetation and background noise on the detection process in auditory avian point-count surveys
AUK, 125(3), 600–607.
author keywords: aural detections; background noise; detection probability; habitat effects; point counts; population indices
TL;DR:
The large differences in detection probabilities among species suggest that tailoring monitoring protocols to specific species of interest may produce better estimates than a single protocol applied to a wide range of species.

An evaluation of long-term capture effects in ursids: Implications for wildlife welfare and research
JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, 89(4), 973–990.
author keywords: American black bear; body condition; exertional myopathy; grizzly bear; long-term capture effects; movement rates; muscle injury; ursids; Ursus americanus; Ursus arctos
TL;DR:
The effect of repeated captures on age-related changes in body condition of 127 grizzly bears and 207 black bears was found to be poorer than that of bears captured once only, with the magnitude of effect directly proportional to number of times captured and the effect more evident with age.

Sonication of bacteria, phytoplankton and zooplankton: Application to treatment of ballast water
MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN, 56(6), 1201–1208.
author keywords: ultrasound; ballast water treatment; bacteria; phytoplankton; zooplankton
MeSH headings : Animals; Bacteria; Phytoplankton / physiology; Ships; Sonication; Zooplankton / physiology
TL;DR:
The results suggest that stand-alone ultrasonic treatment systems for ballast water, operating at 19-20 kHz, may be effective for planktonic organisms >100 microm in size, but smaller planktonics organisms such as phytoplankton and bacteria will require treatment by an additional or alternative system.

author keywords: binomial counts; CAR models; detection histories; detection probability; MCMC; population density estimation

Potential transport of harmful algae via relocation of bivalve molluscs
MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES, 361, 169–179.
author keywords: bivalve mollusc; harmful algal bloom; toxic algae; transport; clam s; scallop; oyster

JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL MARINE BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY, 358(2), 113–123.
author keywords: growth rate; hypoxia; metabolic scope; Paralichthys lethostigma; temperature interactions
TL;DR:
O oxygen and temperature interactions have significant effects on metabolic scope and growth rates of fish, well above the accepted hypoxia threshold of 2.00 mg/L and MMS has proved a useful estimator of the metabolic scope of the organism within an environment.

author keywords: bioclimatic; dispersal; ecological niche; endemic; extinction; MAXENT; maximum entropy; niche-based model; range shift; species distribution model
TL;DR:
It is found that climate change impacts to flora of southwestern Western Australia may be large, even under optimistic assumptions regarding migration abilities, which is among a growing number of theoretical studies suggesting the impacts of future climate change on global biodiversity may be considerable.

Determining optimal population monitoring for rare butterflies
CONSERVATION BIOLOGY, 22(4), 929–940.
author keywords: butterflies; distance sampling; endangered butterflies; insects; mark-recapture; rare species; species monitoring; threatened species; transect counts
MeSH headings : Animals; Butterflies / physiology; Conservation of Natural Resources; Ecosystem; Environmental Monitoring / methods; Population Density; Time Factors
TL;DR:
Mark–recapture analysis provided by far the greatest amount of demographic information, including estimates of population size, detection, survival, and recruitment probabilities, and Pollard–Yates population indices derived from transect counts did not provide estimates of demographic parameters.

Species' traits predict the effects of disturbance and productivity on diversity
ECOLOGY LETTERS, 11(4), 348–356.
author keywords: community; disturbance; diversity; productivity; species' traits; species richness
MeSH headings : Animals; Bacteria; Biodiversity; Biomass; Body Size; Competitive Behavior; Environment; Eukaryota; Reproduction
TL;DR:
It is found that - alone or in concert - increasing disturbance intensity or frequency, or decreasing productivity, reduced diversity, and it is demonstrated that species' traits can help resolve conflicting patterns in the response of diversity to disturbance and productivity.
