A guide for selecting the appropriate plot design to measure ungulate browsing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ungulate browsing often impairs tree regeneration, thus preventing the achievement of economic or conservation goals. Forest ungulate management would thus benefit from a practical decision tool that facilitates method ... -
First-Passage Time Analysis Based on GPS Data Offers a New Approach to Estimate Restricted Zones for the Management of Infectious Diseases in Wildlife: A Case Study Using the Example of African Swine Fever
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)An essential part of any disease containment and eradication policy is the implementation of restricted zones, but determining the appropriate size of these zones can be challenging for managers. We designed a new method, ... -
Bringing the Black rhino back: Key factors for reintroduction success
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Evaluating reintroduction success is fundamental to wildlife management and conservation. Movement affects animal fitness and survival and is the first response of reintroduced animals, making it an excellent indicator of ... -
Estimating effective survey duration in camera trap distance sampling surveys
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Among other approaches, camera trap distance sampling (CTDS) is used to estimate animal abundance from unmarked populations. It was formulated for videos and observation distances are measured at predetermined ‘snapshot ... -
Biosafety regulatory frameworks in Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda and Sweden and their potential impact on international R&D collaborations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Gene technologies, such as transgenesis and new breeding techniques (NBTs), expand the toolbox for plant breeding. Many countries in Africa, however, have long been seen as “slow adopters” of gene technologies for several ... -
Numerical top-down effects on red deer (Cervus elaphus) are mainly shaped by humans rather than large carnivores across Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Terrestrial ecosystems are shaped by interacting top-down and bottom-up processes, with the magnitude of top-down control by large carnivores largely depending on environmental productivity. While carnivore-induced numerical ... -
Mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 Inactivation Using UVC Laser Radiation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-Cov-2) has had a tremendous impact on humanity. Prevention of transmission by disinfection of surfaces and aerosols through a chemical-free method is highly desirable. ... -
How fences communicate interspecies codes of conduct in the landscape: toward bidirectional communication?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The fence provides two functions in wildlife management. First, it physically blocks, deters or impedes wild animals from access to protected areas or resources. Second, the fence signals impassability, danger, ... -
Spent substrate from mushroom cultivation: exploitation potential toward various applications and value-added products
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) is the residual biomass generated after harvesting the fruitbodies of edible/medicinal fungi. Disposal of SMS, the main by-product of the mushroom cultivation process, often leads to serious ... -
Cumulus Cell and Oocyte Gene Expression in Prepubertal Gilts and Sows Identifies Cumulus Cells as a Prime Informative Parameter of Oocyte Quality
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Cumulus cells (CCs) are pivotal during oocyte development. This study aimed to identify novel marker genes for porcine oocyte quality by examining the expression of selected genes in CCs and oocytes, employing the model ... -
Vaginal temperature and collar activity variations in relation to fecal progestagens of captive moose
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Timing of reproductive events can be crucial for a species’ population growth and stability. Accurate detection of reproductive phenology presents a challenge to scientists studying wild species, including moose ... -
Looking Beyond the Bigger Picture: Implications of Classroom Micro-Level Activities for the Inclusion of Refugees in Education in Host Countries
(Chapter, 2023)Many forcibly displaced children arrive in Western host countries and are in education systems. However, little is known regarding the implications of micro or classroom activities for the inclusion of students from refugee ... -
Retinal venular vessel diameters are smaller during ten days of bed rest
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Older individuals experience cardiovascular dysfunction during extended bedridden hospital or care home stays. Bed rest is also used as a model to simulate accelerated vascular deconditioning occurring during spaceflight. ... -
Navigating Hostile Environments: Refugees' Experiences in Higher Education Institutions in Western Countries
(Chapter, 2023)Many refugees are motivated to pursue higher education in host countries. However, they face a myriad of challenges in their trajectories in higher education systems. Some of these challenges include absence of alternative ... -
A semi-automated camera trap distance sampling approach for population density estimation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Camera traps have become important tools for the monitoring of animal populations. However, the study-specific estimation of animal detection probabilities is key if unbiased abundance estimates of unmarked species are to ... -
Automated visitor and wildlife monitoring with camera traps and machine learning
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)As human activities in natural areas increase, understanding human–wildlife interactions is crucial. Big data approaches, like large-scale camera trap studies, are becoming more relevant for studying these interactions. ... -
The cost of research: Lasting effects of capture, surgery and muscle biopsy on brown bear (Ursus arctos) movement and physiology
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Animal models are a key component of translational medicine, helping transfer scientific findings into practical applications for human health. A fundamental principle of research ethics involves weighing the benefits of ... -
Effects of large carnivores, hunter harvest, and weather on the mortality of moose calves in a partially migratory population
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Survival of juvenile ungulates represents an important demographic parameter that influences population dynamics within ecosystems. In many ecological systems, the mortality of juvenile ungulates is influenced by various ... -
Body mass is associated with hibernation length, body temperature, and heart rate in free-ranging brown bears
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Background Despite centuries of research, debate remains on the scaling of metabolic rate to mass especially for intraspecific cases. The high variation of body mass within brown bears presents a unique opportunity to ... -
