Effect of Habitat Size, Quality, and Isolation on Functional Groups of Beetles in Hollow Oaks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)One of the largest threats to biodiversity is land use change and habitat loss. Hollow oaks (Quercus spp. L.) are welldefined patches that are hotspots for biodiversity and red-listed species, but they are often rare and ... -
Effect of human–elephant conflict on local attitudes toward the conservation of wild Asian elephants in Myanmar
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The study of attitudes toward wild elephants and human–elephant conflict (HEC) is vital to understanding what attitudes are held by local people and how to incorporate them into wild elephant conservation. This study ... -
Effect of mesh size on baited trap catch composition for noble crayfish (Astacus Astacus)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Minimum size is a common management regulation in noble crayfish (Astacus astacus) fisheries. The most used catching method baited traps, catch crayfish down to 50 mm total length (TL). In Norway the minimum size is 95 mm ... -
Effect of sand texture on nest quality and mating success in a fish with parental care
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Nest quality is an important aspect of courtship and mate choice, offering females direct benefits through offspring survival and, if it reflects male genetic quality, also indirect ones. Nest characteristics may thus ... -
Effect of Temperature on Plant Resistance to Arthropod Pests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Temperature has a strong influence on the development, survival, and fecundity of herbivorous arthropods, and it plays a key role in regulating the growth and development of their host plants. In addition, temperature ... -
Effect of tower base painting on willow ptarmigan collision rates with wind turbines
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)1. Birds colliding with turbine rotor blades is a well-known negative consequence of wind-power plants. However, there has been far less attention to the risk of birds colliding with the turbine towers, and how to mitigate ... -
Effective biodiversity monitoring needs a culture of integration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Despite conservation commitments, most countries still lack large-scale biodiversity monitoring programs to track progress toward agreed targets. Monitoring program design is frequently approached from a topdown, data-centric ... -
The effectiveness of Virkon® S disinfectant against an invasive insect and implications for Antarctic biosecurity practices
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The flightless midge Eretmoptera murphyi is thought to be continuing its invasion of Signy Island via the treads of personnel boots. Current boot-wash biosecurity protocols in the Antarctic region rely on microbial biocides, ... -
Effects and recovery of larvae of the cold-water coral Lophelia pertusa (Desmophyllum pertusum) exposed to suspended bentonite, barite and drill cuttings
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Fossil fuel drilling operations create sediment plumes and release waste materials into the ocean. These operations sometimes occur close to sensitive marine ecosystems, such as cold-water corals. While there have been ... -
