Ward M, Possingham H, Wintle B, Woinarski J, Marsh J, Chapple D, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2025 Feb; 122(6):e2414985122. PMID: 39899717
The global extinction crisis is intensifying rapidly, driven by habitat loss, overexploitation, climate change, invasive species, and disease. This unprecedented loss of species not only threatens ecological integrity but also...

Littlefair M, Scheele B, Lindenmayer D, Evans M
Ecol Evol . 2025 Jan; 15(1):e70803. PMID: 39830696
Understanding how agricultural and land management practices affect amphibian biodiversity is essential for conservation efforts in farmland. We investigated the impact of farm dam enhancement on tadpole abundance and growth...

Mangan M, McCallum H, West M, Scheele B, Gillespie G, Grogan L
Ecol Appl . 2025 Jan; 35(1):e3085. PMID: 39821939
Pathogens that infect multiple host species have an increased capacity to cause extinctions through parasite-mediated apparent competition. Given unprecedented and continuing losses of biodiversity due to Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), the...
4.
Lindenmayer D, Scheele B, Bowd E, Evans M
Ecol Lett . 2024 Dec; 27(12):e14531. PMID: 39739333
Quantifying temporal changes in species occurrence has been a key part of ecology since its inception. We quantified multidecadal site occupancy trajectories for 18 bird species in four independent long-term,...
5.
Heard G, Scroggie M, Hollanders M, Scheele B
J Anim Ecol . 2024 Sep; 93(11):1670-1683. PMID: 39290048
Metapopulations often exist in a fragile balance between local extinctions and (re)colonisations, in which case emerging threats that alter species vital rates may drastically increase metapopulation extinction risk. We combined...

Littlefair M, Scheele B, Westgate M, Lindenmayer D
PLoS One . 2024 May; 19(5):e0303504. PMID: 38739606
Biodiversity is in rapid decline globally with agriculture being one of the leading causes. Within agricultural landscapes, some features provide a benefit to biodiversity that is disproportionate to their spatial...
7.
Sopniewski J, Catullo R, Ward M, Mitchell N, Scheele B
Conserv Biol . 2024 Apr; 38(6):e14277. PMID: 38660923
Globally, species are increasingly at risk from compounding threatening processes, an increasingly prominent driver of which is environmental disturbances. To facilitate effective conservation efforts following such events, methods that evaluate...

Lindenmayer D, Florance D, Smith D, Crane C, Siegrist A, Lang E, et al.
PLoS One . 2023 Sep; 18(9):e0291641. PMID: 37768982
Reptiles are an important part of the vertebrate fauna in the temperate woodlands of south-eastern Australia. However, compared to birds and mammals, the long-term occurrence of reptiles across woodland growth...

Scheele B, Heard G, Cardillo M, P Duncan R, Gillespie G, Hoskin C, et al.
Nat Ecol Evol . 2023 Aug; 7(10):1682-1692. PMID: 37550511
Global change is causing an unprecedented restructuring of ecosystems, with the spread of invasive species being a key driver. While population declines of native species due to invasives are well...

Heard G, Bolitho L, Newell D, Hines H, Norman P, Willacy R, et al.
Ecol Evol . 2023 May; 13(5):e10069. PMID: 37214614
Deepening droughts and unprecedented wildfires are at the leading edge of climate change. Such events pose an emerging threat to species maladapted to these perturbations, with the potential for steeper...
