Effects of mining truck traffic on cricket calling activity (2019)
Journal Article
Duarte, M., Cailari, E., Scarpelli, M., Lobregat, G., Young, R., & Sousa-Lima, R. (2019). Effects of mining truck traffic on cricket calling activity. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 146(1), 656-664. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.5119125

Anthropogenic noise is a global pollutant and several studies have identified its impact on wildlife. This research shows how the noise produced by mining affects crickets' acoustic communication. Two passive acoustic monitoring devices (SMII) were i... Read More about Effects of mining truck traffic on cricket calling activity.

The provision and use of urban public spaces for female physical activity in Saudi Arabia (2019)
Thesis
Maghrabi, A. The provision and use of urban public spaces for female physical activity in Saudi Arabia. (Thesis). University of Salford

With the development and expansion of the city of Jeddah, the increase in the population and the integration of a variety of social structures has changed. The need for public open spaces has increased and the purpose of visiting these spaces has als...

Evaluating environmental and ecological landscape characteristics relevant to urban resilience across gradients of land-sharing-sparing and urbanity (2019)
Journal Article
Dennis, M., Scaletta, K., & James, P. Evaluating environmental and ecological landscape characteristics relevant to urban resilience across gradients of land-sharing-sparing and urbanity. PLoS ONE, 14(7), e0215796. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0215796

Within urban landscape planning, debate continues around the relative merits of land-sparing (compaction) and land-sharing (sprawl) scenarios. Using part of Greater Manchester (UK) as a case-study, we present a landscape approach to mapping green inf...

The Munduruku marmoset : a new monkey species from southern Amazonia (2019)
Journal Article
Costa-Araújo, R., de Melo, F., Canale, G., Hernández-Rangel, S., Messias, M., Rossi, R., …Hrbek, T. (2019). The Munduruku marmoset : a new monkey species from southern Amazonia. PeerJ, 7, e7019. https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.7019

Although the Atlantic Forest marmosets (Callithrix spp.) are among the best studied Neotropical primates, the Amazonian marmosets (Callibella humilis, Cebuella spp. and Mico spp.) are much less well-known. Even species diversity and distributions are... Read More about The Munduruku marmoset : a new monkey species from southern Amazonia.
