The use of hair tubes in detecting irruptive arid-zone rodents
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Australian Mammalogy"
DOI: 10.1071/am15025
Abstract: Populations of many arid-zone rodents are known to fluctuate dramatically in response to the boom–bust cycles of the dynamic landscapes in which they occur. This constrains their study, particularly efforts to determine the location and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/wr24070
Abstract: Deserts cover large areas and support substantial biodiversity; however, like other biomes, they are experiencing biodiversity loss. Monitoring biodiversity trends in deserts is rare, partly because of the logistical challenges of working in remote areas.… read more here.
