TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed the evidence base to support this priority, and reviewed information on cat presence/absence on Australian islands and mainland cat-proof exclosures, finding that cats occur across >99.8% of Australia's land area.
Journal ArticleDOI
A guide to ecosystem models and their environmental applications
William L. Geary,Michael Bode,Tim S. Doherty,Tim S. Doherty,Elizabeth A. Fulton,Elizabeth A. Fulton,Dale G. Nimmo,Ayesha I. T. Tulloch,Vivitskaia J. D. Tulloch,Vivitskaia J. D. Tulloch,Euan G. Ritchie +10 more
TL;DR: An overview of the main types of ecosystem models and their uses is provided, and some recommended strategies to aid the explicit consideration of uncertainty while also meeting the challenges of modelling ecosystems are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predator responses to fire: A global systematic review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: The divergent responses of species in the study suggest that adaptive, context-specific management of predator-fire relationships is required, and strong variation in predator responses to fire, and major geographic and taxonomic knowledge gaps are revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Citizen science in schools: Engaging students in research on urban habitat for pollinators
Manu E. Saunders,Erin Roger,William L. Geary,Floret L. Meredith,Dustin J. Welbourne,Alex Bako,Emily Canavan,Francesca Herro,Charlotte Herron,Olivia Hung,Madeline Kunstler,Jade Lin,Natasha Ludlow,Mayling Paton,Sunny Salt,Tallulah Simpson,Ariana Wang,Nikki Zimmerman,Kalani B.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report a citizen science program designed to engage school-age children in real-world scientific research, which used standardized methods deployed across multiple schools through scientist-school partnerships to engage students with an important conservation problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incorporating disturbance into trophic ecology: Fire history shapes mesopredator suppression by an apex predator
TL;DR: In this paper, Giraffe et al. present a version of the VOR that has not been through the copyediting, typesetting, pagination and proofreading process, which may lead to differences between this version and the version of record.
