Impacts of man-made structures on marine biodiversity and species status - native & non-native species

Pawaskar, Sonali (Victoria University of Wellington, 2020)

Coastal environments are exposed to anthropogenic activities such as frequent marine traffic and restructuring, i.e., addition, removal or replacing with man-made structures. Although maritime shipping and coastal ...
Assessing bird predation on New Zealand’s lizard fauna using lizard-mimicking replicas

Florence-Bennett, Brittany (Victoria University of Wellington, 2020)

Wildlife management is fraught with challenges due to the complexities of community ecology. Interventions aimed at restoring ecosystems, or managing species, can have unintended negative outcomes for target species. The ...
The Effects of Environmental Contaminants on Freshwater Cyanobacteria

Mumford, Jenna (Victoria University of Wellington, 2020)

Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic prokaryotes with a cosmopolitan distribution and are key contributors to Earth’s primary production. In favourable conditions, some taxa have the ability to form dense algal blooms. When ...
Is habitat enhancement a viable strategy for conserving New Zealand's endemic lizards?

Herbert, Sarah (Victoria University of Wellington, 2020)

In our current era, the Anthropocene, species are disappearing at an unprecedented rate due to the impact of humans on Earth’s environments. Of the many causes of these extinctions, habitat loss is thought to be the most ...
Conservation of endemic lizards in New Zealand cities

Woolley, Christopher (Victoria University of Wellington, 2020)

Globally, biodiversity is in crisis. One contributing factor is the rapid urbanisation of the world’s population. Land cover change associated with urbanisation radically alters ecosystems, making them uninhabitable for ...
Niche Partitioning of 5 Sympatric Bornean Ungulates in Response to Spatiotemporal Variation in Fruit Availability and Resulting Implications for Predator-Prey Interactions

Selwyn, Rachel (Victoria University of Wellington, 2020)

Borneo’s rainforests are experiencing some of the fastest deforestation rates worldwide and are home to increasingly vulnerable species, most of which remain poorly understood. Bornean rainforests exhibit dramatic fluctuations ...
Temporal Development and Regeneration Dynamics of Restored Urban Forests

De Silva, Katherine (Victoria University of Wellington, 2019)

Urban forest restoration programmes are a key tool used to initiate, re-create or accelerate the succession of forest species; improving ecosystem services, function, resilience and biodiversity. Succession is a temporal ...
