... based on modelling of calling male koalas and reliance on an untested assumption that male calling is indicative of female breeding success. Koala density in a subset of the highest quality habitat was relatively stable at 0.28 koalas/ha (3 hectares/koala) over the long term (1997–98 and 2012–2023). Key...

... modelling are also used to design artificial nests that closely resemble the real thing, aiming to increase use by the target species (e.g. powerful owls, Ninox strenua; Parker et al. 2022). Large companies looking to offset environmental impacts invest in artificial habitat projects such as the design...

... require further clarification. To date, the vast majority of surveys for P. oralis have not included quantitative assessment of the available habitat as specified under the micro-habitat model (NSW NPWS 2003). Therefore, while there is qualitative information available on P. oralis habitat use...

... and the method relatively rarely collects the larger more active and better taxonomically known species. Pitfall trapping is a well-established quantitative method for surface-active beetles that has long been used for assessing habitat quality in Europe and North America (Greenslade 1964; Thiele 1977; Rainio...

Yet, cities...

... habitat patches is more effective than creating new habitat patches to achieve the same goal. Most issues of conservation journals contain a Population Viability Analysis or related form of population model. Many of these papers present the model and then find the extinction probability of the target popu...

The vast majority of land snails are detritivores and many exhibit a generalist feeding strategy (Mensink and Henry 2011), consuming a variety of food including fungi (Wolda et al. 1971; Butler 1976...

General linearized modelling indicated that 23% of host variation in tick abundance was positively correlated to a multivariate function incorporating lizard body size, body condition, their interactions, and habitat differences. The covariates of host population density and inbreeding...

... wvering a range of projects, habitats and legislatures revealed that few tackled ecological issues and mostly without a quantitative approach utilizing statistical analyses. I therefore conclude that the science in ElSs is rather more rudimentaiy than the standard seen in ecological journals. Here I...

When allowance is made for habitat loss and degradation, 30 to 90% of bird species across the continent have declined in abundance. The extent of this decline is that the survival of many bird...
