We investigated how a discriminatory housing policy—redlining—has shaped the spatial patterns and configurations of greenspaces throughout 177 cities in the contiguous US. Housing segregation has bee...

In this TrendsTalk series ‘Disability in ecology and evolution’ in Trends in Ecology and Evolution, we hear from people about their experiences being disabled in ecology and evolution. We are asking ecologists and evolutionary biologists with disabilities what the community could do to make our field more inclusive – these changes can be very practical things (e.g., large fonts), they could be institutional, or involve people’s attitudes and beliefs. If you identify as disabled or have a chronic condition, and would like to share your thoughts, please get in touch – tree@cell.com, we would love to hear from you.

Scientific Data - A minimum data standard for wildlife disease research and surveillance

The human shield hypothesis posits that predators avoid areas of human disturbance due to perceived risk from humans, and prey therefore seeks refuge in these areas of perceived safety. Our systemati....

We use a novel spatially explicit projection model to evaluate how different management strategies and system uncertainties affect the recolonization dynamics of wolves. We found that scenarios relat....

Study by U biologists taps data from 22,000 songbirds captured at Bonderman Field Station to reveal changes in how they replace their feathers

When you flip a fair coin, the probability that you get heads at least once increases with the number of times you flip the coin. This makes intuitive sense. More chances means you are more likely to ...

Peer-reviewed research - Local and long-distance colonization influence the distribution of a species in a fragmented landscape

This data product consists of a database of population change and abundance estimates for North American birds, estimated from North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) data. Data are presented for 54...

Using GPS collar data from coyotes (Canis latrans) in Los Angeles, California, we show that movement models with societal covariates outperform those considering only linear infrastructure and ecolog....

Migratory species experience various conditions and events throughout their annual cycle that influence their spatial and demographic dynamics. To understand these dynamics, it is essential to des...

As CBS News New York's Vanessa Murdock reports, the Big Apple isn't the only city struggling with this problem.

On Monday morning, Chicago Animal Care and Control responded to a report of a coyote at the Humboldt Park Aldi store.

Biologists increasingly rely on computer code to collect and analyze their data, reinforcing the importance of published code for transparency, reproducibility, training, and a basis for further work...

At VCE, we're proud of our passionate, dedicated, and inspired staff whose wide-ranging talents drive our mission. Please check back regularly for new job and internship opportunities. In addition to ...

Help us understand how animals—from coyotes to chipmunks—share this great city with us.

Species interactions shape biodiversity patterns, community assemblage, and the dynamics of wildlife populations. Ecological theory posits that the strength of interspecific interactions is fundament...
