Journal ArticleDOI
Zoonotic host diversity increases in human-dominated ecosystems
Rory Gibb,David W. Redding,Kai Qing Chin,Christl A. Donnelly,Christl A. Donnelly,Tim M. Blackburn,Tim M. Blackburn,Tim Newbold,Kate E. Jones,Kate E. Jones +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that mammal species that harbour more pathogens overall are more likely to occur in human-managed ecosystems, suggesting that these trends may be mediated by ecological or life-history traits that influence both host status and tolerance to human disturbance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emerging opportunities and challenges for passive acoustics in ecological assessment and monitoring
TL;DR: It is shown that terrestrial and marine PAM applications are advancing rapidly, driven by emerging sensor hardware, the application of machine learning inno-vations to automated wildlife call identification, and work towards developing acoustic biodiversity indicators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bat detective—Deep learning tools for bat acoustic signal detection
Oisin Mac Aodha,Rory Gibb,Kate E. Barlow,Ella Browning,Ella Browning,Michael Firman,Robin Freeman,Briana Harder,Libby Kinsey,Gary R. Mead,Stuart E. Newson,Ivan Pandourski,Stuart Parsons,Jon Russ,Abigel Szodoray-Paradi,Farkas Szodoray-Paradi,Elena Tilova,Mark Girolami,Gabriel J. Brostow,Kate E. Jones,Kate E. Jones +20 more
TL;DR: In this article, a convolutional neural network based open-source pipeline was developed for detecting ultrasonic, full-spectrum, search-phase calls produced by echolocating bats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding the cryptic nature of Lassa fever in West Africa.
TL;DR: Current knowledge is synthesized to show that extrapolations from past research have produced an incomplete picture of the incidence and distribution of LF, with negative consequences for policy planning, medical treatment and management interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate and land-use change homogenise terrestrial biodiversity, with consequences for ecosystem functioning and human well-being.
Tim Newbold,Georgina L. Adams,Gonzalo Albaladejo Robles,Gonzalo Albaladejo Robles,Elizabeth H. Boakes,Guilherme Braga Ferreira,Guilherme Braga Ferreira,Abbie S. A. Chapman,Adrienne Etard,Rory Gibb,Joseph W. Millard,Joseph W. Millard,Charlotte L. Outhwaite,Jessica J. Williams +13 more
TL;DR: The overall losses and homogenisation of biodiversity, and the larger impacts upon certain types of species, are likely to lead to strong negative consequences for the functioning of ecosystems, and consequently for human well-being.
