DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70135

Abstract: Abstract Urbanisation has reduced the abundance and diversity of many taxonomic groups, and the effects may be more pronounced on islands, which have a smaller regional species pool to compensate. Green spaces within urban environments… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10592-024-01631-9

Abstract: Human activities often induce maladaptive effects in urban wildlife, such as increased inbreeding and decreased gene flow, consequently leading to a loss of biodiversity. Although maladaptive effects are commonly reported in urban wildlife, some wildlife… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-67222-3

Abstract: Increased urbanisation influences the morphometric traits of various species, often resulting in urban individuals being smaller than their non-urban counterparts. Urbanisation can affect fundamental eco-evolutionary patterns and impact species’ ability to adapt to and occupy… read more here.
