... that 90% of papers presented at the 5th bio- logging symposium in Strasbourg in 2014 involved birds or marine mammals. As such, the development of technology for use in terrestrial mammals has arguably fallen behind, despite many of the advantages of this technology still being highly relevant...

...A.S. Kutt; E.P. Vanderduys Pitfall trapping is a long established method for trapping terrestrial vertebrates globally. Many variations in bucket and drift fence arrays are used. Recent survey guidelines have been published for Queensland and the Northern Territory. In Queensland a “T” pattern...

...C. M. Young; K.A. Kimpton; H.M Cohen; P.T. Burns; K. McLaughlin; P.B. Banks ABSTRACT Live trapping is a common survey technique used to sample small terrestrial mammal populations, but too often traps are disturbed by non-target species, especially by birds such as corvids, resulting...

... of most marine species are known in less detail than is available for terrestrial taxa, because of the difficulties of sampling in the oceans (Andrew and Mapstone 1987; Heatwole et al. 2017). Our knowledge of snake distributions provides a good example of this habitat-related difference. Distributions...

... and a terrestrial network that can only track birds would represent an over-investment in comparison to the size of the research community. Many of Australia s birds are nomadic and move in response to rainfall (Pedler et al. 2014, 2017, McEvoy et al. 2017). Thus, their movements do not follow highly predictable...

... for terrestrial vegetation more than availability. Increasing the amount of terrestrial vegetation around ponds may help encourage female occupancy, and possibly improve management outcomes, as they are typically a limiting resource. Although large rock piles have been used in past L. aurea habitat management...

In estuarine and marine environments, the fauna associated with clear water, low siltation rates, and seagrass beds has declined and species that were...

Dunphy Lake seems to be highly resilient in sustaining a viable aquatic community, even though the lake and its catchment are subject to such major ecological disturbances as fires and flooding (Lobb 2015).
