New paper! Class Conflict: Diffuse Competition between Mammalian and Reptilian Predators
Journal: Diversity Abstract: (1) Diffuse competition affects per capita rates of population increase among species that exploit similar resources, and thus can be an important structuring force in ecological communities. Diffuse competition has traditionally been studied within taxonomically similar groups, … Continue reading

New paper: Ecological forecasts to inform near‐term management of threats to biodiversity
Published in: Global Change Biology Abstract: Ecosystems are being altered by rapid and interacting changes in natural processes and anthropogenic threats to biodiversity. Uncertainty in historical, current and future effectiveness of actions hampers decisions about how to mitigate changes to … Continue reading

New paper: Dynamics, habitat use and extinction risk of a carnivorous desert marsupial
Authors: Aaron C. Greenville, Robert Brandle, Peter Canty and Chris R. Dickman Published in: Journal of Zoology. Abstract: Animals in hot desert environments often show marked fluctuations in population size, persisting in low numbers in refuge habitats during dry periods … Continue reading

New Paper! Making the most of incomplete long-term datasets: the MARSS solution
Authors: Aaron C. Greenville, Vuong Nguyen, Glenda M. Wardle and Chris R. Dickman Published in: Australian Zoologist Abstract: Long-term field-based monitoring is essential to develop a deep understanding of how ecosystems function and to identify species at risk of decline. … Continue reading

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
