..., particularly post-fire salvage logging that occurred in some areas following the 2009 wildfires. Beyond interactions between fire and post-fire (salvage) logging and their effects on forest biota, we have uncovered evidence of other kinds of interactions in Mountain Ash forests. These include interactions...

...Ron Haering; Vanessa Wilson; Annie Zhuo; Peter Stathis ABSTRACT The views of veterinary professionals were surveyed to inform the New South Wales Government about the extent, cost and nature of services they provide to free-living native animals and their interactions with the volunteer wildlife...

... the Victorian Alpine Plot Network has highlighted the impacts of a 13-year drought period and increasing minimum temperatures on changes in the composition of alpine communities (Wahren et al. 2013). Long-term monitoring is therefore especially important for exploring these interactions (Runyoro et al. 1995...

These observations can be used to inform disease spread models and identify strategies to mitigate the risks of disease transmission. However, the collection and incorporation of data...

... and an integral part of the research. It is now possible to set up a network of social media platforms that communicates research to a bespoke audience that may create real impact for that research. Here I look at opportunities for researchers to communicate their research to various audiences using social media...

Here, we make the case that the Motus Wildlife Tracking System, an open-source, rapidly expanding cooperative automated radio-tracking global network (Motus...

The IUCN resolution that called for the establishment of a global network of representative marine protected areas also called for the management, in accordance with the principles of the World Conservation Strategy, of human activities that use or affect...

We propose a concept for an interactive virtual experience that would engage people visiting flying-fox roosts in public places and leverage familiarity with quick-response (QR) codes and personal mobile device functionalities. The concept is based around QR codes displayed...

This is frequently the case with the site-selection problem. At its outset, Saving our Species site selection relied on experts to select...

Modules and grids sample biodiversity and biophysical variation in an unbiased manner across the landscape. Infrastructure...

It has been suggested that perhaps humans could pivot to examining tasks that add more value such as observing interactions- observations that AI...

If we consider food and eating, it is possible to see a different story, which allows more insight into the interactions between people of the two societies as the possibilities for eating animals or using other biological...

Thus, land managers may need to assess how wasp activities will influence scavenger communities, perhaps looking to carry out targeted or extensive...
