Angie Haslem, Auteur ; Sarah C. Avitabile, Auteur ; Rick S. Taylor, Auteur ; Luke T. Kelly, Auteur ; Simon J. Watson, Auteur ; Dale G. Nimmo, Auteur ; Sally A. Kenny, Auteur ; Kate E. Callister, Auteur ; Lisa M. Spence-Bailey, Auteur ; Andrew F. Bennett, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, AuteurTree hollows are a critical, yet potentially limiting habitat resource for many animal species. Fire influences hollow availability, and the associated indirect effects on fauna can threaten the persistence of hollow-dependent species in fire-pr[...]
Article
Michael F. Clarke, Auteur ; Joanne M. Oldland, AuteurThe noisy miner (Manorina melanocephala) is a large, communally breeding colonial native honeyeater renowned for aggressively excluding virtually all other bird species from areas they occupy. In the woodlands of southern and eastern Australia, [...]
Article
Kate Splittgerber, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, AuteurWe examined the extent and causes of band-related leg injuries in an Australian passerine, the Bell Miner (Manorina melanophrys). Eight percent of banded birds exhibited leg injuries, and most were birds with two plastic color bands on a tarsus.[...]
Article
Michael F. Clarke, AuteurEcological fire management in Australia is often built on an assumption that meeting the needs of plant species will automatically meet the needs of animal species. However, the scarcity of ecological data on the needs of fauna in relation to fi[...]
Article
Amanda J. Dare, Auteur ; Paul G. McDonald, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, AuteurBell miner (Manorina melanophrys) colonies are closely associated with decreased avian abundance and diversity and an apparently associated increase in psyllid abundance. However, a causative link between the presence of bell miners and increase[...]

Don A. Driscoll, Auteur ; David B. Lindenmayer, Auteur ; Andrew F. Bennett, Auteur ; Michael Bode, Auteur ; Ross A. Bradstock, Auteur ; Geoffrey J. Cary, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, Auteur ; Nick Dexter, Auteur ; Rod Fensham, Auteur ; Gordon Friend, Auteur ; Malcolm Gill, Auteur ; Stewart James, Auteur ; Geoff Kay, Auteur ; David A. Keith, Auteur ; Christopher MacGregor, Auteur ; Jeremy Russell-Smith, Auteur ; David Salt, Auteur ; James E. M. Watson, Auteur ; Richard J. Williams, Auteur ; Alan York, AuteurKnowing how species respond to fire regimes is essential for ecologically sustainable management. This axiom raises two important questions: (1) what knowledge is the most important to develop and (2) to what extent can current research methods [...]
Article
Natasha M. Robinson, Auteur ; Steve W. J. Leonard, Auteur ; Andrew F. Bennett, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, AuteurIn forest ecosystems, uniformity in fire spread may be moderated by topography such that sheltered areas (e.g. gullies) escape fire. However, gullies are not immune to fire and, under extreme fire weather conditions, can burn. This may compromis[...]
Article
Thea O'Loughlin, Auteur ; Luke S. O'Loughlin, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, AuteurContext. Competition for space and resources within a fragmented landscape may change interspecific interactions within the remaining available habitat. These changes may inhibit the persistence of one species but facilitate the success of anoth[...]
Article
Daniel T. Nugent, Auteur ; Steven W. J. Leonard, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, AuteurContext. The superb lyrebird Menura novaehollandiae is thought to be an important ecosystem engineer that, through its foraging, accelerates the decomposition of litter in Eucalyptus forests. Lyrebird foraging is therefore likely to affect fores[...]
Article
Lisa M. Spence-Bailey, Auteur ; Dale G. Nimmo, Auteur ; Luke T. Kelly, Auteur ; Andrew F. Bennett, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, AuteurContext. Designing an appropriate survey protocol requires understanding of how capture rates of target species may be influenced by factors other than on-ground abundance, such as weather conditions or seasonality. This is particularly relevant[...]
Article
Paul G. McDonald, Auteur ; Catherine F. Heathcote, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, Auteur ; Jonathan Wright, Auteur ; Anahita J. N. Kazem, AuteurAcoustically-mediated individual discrimination has been the focus of much investigation in ornithology. For cooperatively breeding species, strong selection pressure favouring individual recognition during acts of altruism is predicted under ma[...]
Article
Luke T. Kelly, Auteur ; Dale G. Nimmo, Auteur ; Lisa M. Spence-Bailey, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, Auteur ; Andrew F. Bennett, AuteurContext. Wildfire is a major driver of the structure and function of mallee eucalypt-and spinifex-dominated landscapes. Understanding how fire influences the distribution of biota in these fire-prone environments is essential for effective ecolo[...]
Article
Rick S. Taylor, Auteur ; Simon J. Watson, Auteur ; Andrew F. Bennett, Auteur ; Michael F. Clarke, AuteurManaging fire regimes for conservation of biodiversity is a global challenge. We examined the responses of birds to fire mosaics (4-km diameter landscapes) comprising different compositions of fire age-classes, and used these results to evaluate[...]
