Journal Article
Park, K. J., Mayhew, R. J., Lintott, P., Bunnefeld, N., Fuentes-Montemayor, E., Minderman, J., & Olley, L. (2014). City life makes females fussy: Sex differences in habitat use of temperate bats in urban areas. Royal Society Open Science, 1(3), Article 140200. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsos.140200

© 2014 The Authors. Urbanization is a major driver of the global loss of biodiversity; to mitigate its adverse effects, it is essential to understand what drives species' patterns of habitat use within the urban matrix. While many animal species are... Read More about City life makes females fussy: Sex differences in habitat use of temperate bats in urban areas.

Testing the effectiveness of surveying techniques in determining bat community composition within woodland (2014)
Journal Article
Park, K. J., Lintott, P., Fuentes-Montemayor, E., & Goulson, D. (2014). Testing the effectiveness of surveying techniques in determining bat community composition within woodland. Wildlife Research, 40(8), 675-684. https://doi.org/10.1071/WR13153

Context Determining the biodiversity of an area is essential for making targeted conservation decisions. Undertaking surveys to confirm species presence or to estimate population sizes can be difficult, particularly for elusive species. Bats are able...

Moth species richness, abundance and diversity in fragmented urban woodlands: Implications for conservation and management strategies (2014)
Journal Article
Park, K. J., Blackmore, L. M., Lintott, P., Bunnefeld, N., Fuentes-Montemayor, E., Minderman, J., & Goulson, D. (2014). Moth species richness, abundance and diversity in fragmented urban woodlands: Implications for conservation and management strategies. Biodiversity and Conservation, 23(11), 2875-2901. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10531-014-0753-z

Urban expansion threatens global biodiversity through the destruction of natural and semi-natural habitats and increased levels of disturbance. Whilst woodlands in urban areas may reduce the impact of urbanisation on biodiversity, they are often subj...
