Non-invasive techniques have long been used to estimate wildlife population abundance and density. However, recent technological breakthroughs have fa...

Understanding the effects of disease is critical to determining appropriate management responses, but estimating those effects in wildlife species is ...

Diseases occurring at low prevalence in free-ranging wildlife can be difficult to study and predict at a landscape scale. This problem is compounded b...

Estimating disease transmission in wildlife populations is critical to understand host-pathogen dynamics, predict disease risks and prioritize surveil...

Landscape composition affects local arthropod biodiversity, including herbivorous insects and their predators, yet to date landscape effects on insect...

In epidemiological studies of wildlife parasites, faecal genotyping has been introduced to prevent bias in estimates of parasite prevalence from faeca...

Diversifying agricultural systems by growing more than one crop species in an area can decrease pest and disease pressure and increase crop yields. Ho...
