Summary: The study found that the impact of urbanization on urban species diversity is related to landscape differences among cities. For example, in some cities, when the proportion of green space within a city exceeded 20%, some mammals' responses to urbanization changed from negative to positive; when the average housing density of a city exceeded about 700 housing units/km(2), some mammals' responses to urbanization also changed.

Summary: The Himalayan goral is facing increasing threats from habitat degradation and human disturbances. A study conducted in Dhorpatan Hunting Reserve, Nepal found that Himalayan gorals were more likely to be detected in late winter compared to spring. The factors influencing their occurrence varied between these periods, with the distance to the nearest human settlement and the number of other wild ungulates detected having a positive effect on goral occurrence during late winter, while only the number of wild ungulate detections had a positive impact during spring. The number of livestock and carnivores detected did not influence goral occupancy in both seasons.

Summary: Species richness is a crucial indicator of ecosystem states and dynamics, but limited sampling effort and spatial aggregation of organisms hinder accurate observation of every species. In this study, we propose a non-parametric, asymptotic, and bias-minimized estimator called omega, which accounts for spatial abundance characteristics. Our simulation tests and real surveys demonstrate that omega consistently outperforms other estimators in balancing bias, precision, and difference detection accuracy. An R-package, Richness, is developed to facilitate the implementation of our proposed estimators. Our findings shed light on the impact of natural and observer-induced variations on species observation, and emphasize the importance of further improving biodiversity assessments.

Summary: Camera traps are commonly used in wildlife monitoring and citizen science, but concerns over video performance have led to the majority of studies collecting still images. However, a study conducted in the UK found no difference in ecological outputs between video and photo datasets. Additionally, citizen scientists were able to classify videos more accurately and provide more additional information compared to experts. This suggests that using video in camera-trapping projects, especially when combined with citizen science, can yield higher quality data.

Summary: This study presents a trapping and diffusion model for multiple species of solute atoms in a system with multiple sorts of traps based on irreversible thermodynamics. The presented theory and its numerical implementations cover any kinetics of exchange between the lattice and traps as well as site competition effects for any system size. It has applications in various phenomena in material science, such as (co-) segregation of solutes, trapping processes, and hydrogen interaction with material defects. The simulations demonstrate the role of trapping parameters in charging and discharging behavior, site competition effects, and the interaction between trapping kinetics and diffusion kinetics for multiple species.

Summary: Increasingly frequent megafires are dramatically altering landscapes and critical habitats around the world, posing a threat to the conservation of native wildlife. Woodland savannas, one of the most biodiverse ecosystems, are particularly vulnerable to megafires. However, most fire impact studies have focused on coniferous forests, leaving the impact on biodiversity in woodland savannas relatively unknown. This study assessed the resistance of a woodland savanna mammal community to the short-term impacts of megafire and found that most species showed high resistance and recovered by the end of the study period. Maintaining canopy cover through fire management is crucial for providing refugia for vulnerable species after the fire.

Summary: The reintroduction of apex predators in southern Africa has increased, but there is a lack of empirical evaluation on their ecological effects and the proposed umbrella benefits of associated management. A study found that lion reserves in South Africa had more mesocarnivore-rich communities, but lower mesocarnivore occupancy rates and diversity when lions were present. Additionally, human population density surrounding the reserves also negatively affected mesocarnivore occupancy.

Summary: It has been recognized that state-owned protected areas are not enough to preserve the world's diverse biodiversity. Private land conservation can be a significant contribution to national conservation goals without excessive use of state resources. In South Africa, legislation has been introduced to encourage private landowners to support national biodiversity goals. This study used camera traps and occupancy modeling to assess the impact of land-use on mammal diversity in the drylands of South Africa. Results showed that a land-use matrix incorporating statutory and private protected areas and well-managed rangelands can benefit wildlife conservation, as long as these land-uses are included in carefully developed regional conservation planning.

Summary: Outdoor recreation in natural areas is becoming more popular globally, but its long-term effects on wildlife are poorly understood. This study investigated whether tourism in the Dolomites, Italy, affected wild mammals in the long term and if it resulted in spatial or temporal avoidance. Camera trapping was used to detect mammal occurrences over seven summers at 60 consistently sampled sites. Overall, human presence increased over the 7-year period, but both community and species-level occurrences of mammals also increased. However, human activities caused temporal avoidance in the whole community and spatial avoidance in bigger-sized species.

Summary: Small island vertebrates, including lizards, are often larger in body size and have higher survival rates compared to their mainland counterparts. In this study, data on Lilford's lizard were collected and analyzed to examine its growth, survival, and lifespan on a small island. The results confirmed the presence of the 'island syndrome' in terms of survival, lifespan, and growth parameters. Comparative analysis also showed that island lizards generally grow slower and live longer than their mainland counterparts.

Summary: Anthropogenic activities have led to the loss of tropical forests, which poses a threat to global biodiversity and ecosystem services. Non-human primates, especially those targeted by hunting, have experienced a significant decline in population abundance and have struggled to recover even after receiving increased protection. However, other primate species have shown a slight increase in abundance with improved habitat protection. These findings highlight the species-specific vulnerability to anthropogenic disturbances and recovery patterns in primate populations.

Summary: Biodiversity is important for ecosystems, with higher species richness often leading to increased productivity. However, the relationship between biodiversity and productivity varies across environments and is less pronounced at high levels of species richness. Community evenness can mediate this relationship, and our study shows that it is negatively correlated with species richness and plays a crucial role in the biodiversity-productivity relationship.

Summary: This study explores the demographic role of immigration and population structure on population growth rates of the Mediterranean Cuvier's beaked whale. The study finds that immigration has a significant impact on population growth rates, with a contribution 4.2 to 12.7 times larger than other vital rates. Immigration rate and proportional abundance of breeding females with a 2- or 3-year-old calf explain a substantial portion of the temporal variability in population growth rates. Changes in immigration and population structure, specifically the proportional abundance of breeding females with a 2-year-old calf, drive the changes in realized population growth rates between successive years.

Summary: The decline of mammals worldwide necessitates quantitative population assessments, especially for range-restricted and threatened species. However, estimating robust abundances for elusive or difficult to detect species presents challenges. In this study, we calibrated density estimates from acoustic surveys with occupancy estimates from camera-trapping detections to determine the abundance of the endangered Sanje mangabey (Cercocebus sanjei) in the Udzungwa Mountains of Tanzania. Our results indicate higher density and abundance in the nature reserve compared to previous studies, providing optimism for the species' status despite potential vulnerability to human disturbance.

Summary: The occurrence dynamics of wildlife populations in protected areas are influenced by anthropogenic stressors, particularly affecting habitat specialists and generalist species differently. The study found that colonization probability of habitat specialists is influenced by local-scale forest cover when the landscape-scale fragmentation is low, while survival probability of generalist species is more affected by the forest edge when the landscape-scale human population density is low.
