Effectiveness of small road tunnels and fences in reducing amphibian roadkill and barrier effects at retrofitted roads in Sweden.
Schemes to reduce road impacts on amphibians have been implemented for decades in Europe, yet, several aspects on the effectiveness of such schemes remain poorly understood. Particularly in northern Europe, including Sweden...
Volunteer Conservation Action Data Reveals Large-Scale and Long-Term Negative Population Trends of a Widespread Amphibian, the Common Toad (Bufo bufo).
Rare and threatened species are the most frequent focus of conservation science and action. With the ongoing shift from single-species conservation towards the preservation of ecosystem services, there is a greater need to...
Detectability counts when assessing populations for biodiversity targets.
Efficient, practical and accurate estimates of population parameters are a necessary basis for effective conservation action to meet biodiversity targets. The brown hare is representative of many European farmland species...
Using citizen science in road surveys for large-scale amphibian monitoring
Abstract: Road-based citizen science surveys are increasingly used for long-term monitoring of wildlife, including amphibians, over large spatial scales. However, how representative such data are when compared to the actual...

Why link diverse citizen science surveys? Widespread arboreal habits of a terrestrial amphibian revealed by mammalian tree surveys in Britain.
Terrestrial anurans, with their typically short limbs, heavy-set bodies and absent claws or toe pads are incongruous tree climbers, but even occasional arboreal locomotion could offer substantial advantages for evading predators...
Understanding the relative risks of zoonosis emergence under contrasting approaches to meeting livestock product demand.
Harriet Bartlett, Mark A Holmes, Silviu O Petrovan, David R Williams, James LN Wood, Andrew Balmford
Jul 27, 2022
It has been argued that intensive livestock farming increases the risk of pandemics of zoonotic origin because of long-distance livestock movements, high livestock densities, poor animal health and welfare, low disease...
catena-Poly triphenyltin(IV) -mu-phenylphosphinato-kappa(2)O
In the structure of the title coordination polymer, [Sn(C(6)H(5))(3)-(C(6)H(6)O(2)P)](n) or [PhP(H)O(2)Sn(IV)(Ph)(3)](n), the Sn(IV) atom is five-coordinate, with the SnC(3)O(2) framework in a trans trigonal-bipyramidal...
Facilitating permeability of landscapes impacted by roads for protected amphibians
Amphibian populations are highly vulnerable to road mortality and habitat fragmentation caused by road networks. Wildlife road tunnels are considered the most promising road mitigation measure for amphibians yet generally remain...
Impacts and Potential Mitigation of Road Mortality for Hedgehogs in Europe.
Lauren J Moore, Silviu O Petrovan, Philip J Baker, Adam J Bates, Helen L Hicks, Sarah E Perkins, Richard W Yarnell
Nov 16, 2020
Transport infrastructure is a pervasive element in modern landscapes and continues to expand to meet the demands of a growing human population and its associated resource consumption. Road-induced mortality is often thought to...
Captivity and Infection by the Fungal Pathogen Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans Perturb the Amphibian Skin Microbiome.
Kieran A Bates, Jennifer MG Shelton, Victoria L Mercier, Kevin P Hopkins, Xavier A Harrison, Silviu O Petrovan, Matthew C Fisher
Sep 16, 2019
The emerging fungal pathogen, Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) is responsible for the catastrophic decline of European salamanders and poses a threat to amphibians globally. The amphibian skin microbiome can influence...

Why link diverse citizen science surveys? Widespread arboreal habits of a terrestrial amphibian revealed by mammalian tree surveys in Britain.
Terrestrial anurans, with their typically short limbs, heavy-set bodies and absent claws or toe pads are incongruous tree climbers, but even occasional arboreal locomotion could offer substantial advantages for evading predators...
The challenge of biased evidence in conservation.
Alec P Christie, Tatsuya Amano, Philip A Martin, Silviu O Petrovan, Gorm E Shackelford, Benno I Simmons, Rebecca K Smith, David R Williams, Claire FR Wordley, William J Sutherland
May 05, 2020
Efforts to tackle the current biodiversity crisis need to be as efficient and effective as possible given chronic underfunding. To inform decision-makers of the most effective conservation actions, it is important to identify...

Reducing publication delay to improve the efficiency and impact of conservation science.
Alec P Christie, Thomas B White, Philip A Martin, Silviu O Petrovan, Andrew J Bladon, Andrew E Bowkett, Nick A Littlewood, Anne-Christine Mupepele, Ricardo Rocha, Katherine A Sainsbury, Rebecca K Smith, Nigel G Taylor, William J Sutherland
Jan 06, 2022
Evidence-based decision-making is most effective with comprehensive access to scientific studies. If studies face significant publication delays or barriers, the useful information they contain may not reach decision-makers in a...
Native Defects and their Doping Response in the Lithium Solid Electrolyte Li<sub>7</sub>La<sub>3</sub>Zr<sub>2</sub>O<sub>12</sub>
The Li-stuffed garnets Li xM 2M3′O 12 are promising Li-ion solid electrolytes with potential use in solid-state batteries. One strategy for optimizing ionic conductivities in these materials...
