New paper: Desert mammal populations are limited by introduced predators rather than future climate change
Authors: Aaron C. Greenville, Glenda M. Wardle & Chris R. Dickman Published in: Royal Society Open Science Abstract: Climate change is predicted to place up to one in six species at risk of extinction in coming decades, but extinction probability … Continue reading
New book: Monitoring threatened species and ecological communities
A new book is coming that aims to improve the standard of monitoring for Australia’s threatened biodiversity and I had the opportunity to contribute to one of the chapters. Update: The book received the 2018 Whitley Award commendation for Conservation … Continue reading

New paper: Spatial and temporal synchrony in reptile population dynamics in variable environments
Authors: Aaron C. Greenville, Glenda M. Wardle, Vuong Nguyen and Chris R. Dickman. Published in: Oecologia Abstract: Resources are seldom distributed equally across space, but many species exhibit spatially synchronous population dynamics. Such synchrony suggests the operation of large-scale external … Continue reading
