Opposite-sex associations are linked with annual fitness, but sociality is stable over lifetime.

J. Dunning, T. Burke, A. H. H. Chan, H. Y. J. Chik, T. Evans, J. Schroeder

The paper examines how social associations affect annual and lifetime fitness in birds, finding short-term benefits but long-term stabilizing selection on sociality.

How woodcocks produce the most brilliant white plumage patches among the birds

J. Dunning, A. Patil, A. Bond, L. D'Alba, G. Debruyn, A. Dhinojwala, M. Shawkey, L. Jenni

The paper explains how Eurasian woodcocks produce exceptionally bright white plumage patches through nanostructural and macrostructural light scattering mechanisms.

Indirect genetic effects improve female extra-pair heritability estimates.

S. DOBSON, J. Dunning, T. Burke, H. Y. J. Chik, J. Schroeder

The paper examines how indirect genetic effects (IGEs) influence heritability estimates of extra-pair behavior in house sparrows, finding improved model fit and reduced uncertainty when IGEs are included.

Age-specific survival in an English Twite population.

I. Gkourtsouli-Antoniadou, S. R. Ewing, G. Hudson, M. A. Pearson, J. Schroeder, P. E. Welch, N. Wilkinson, J. Dunning

The paper estimates age-specific survival rates in a Twite population, finding lower juvenile survival compared to adults, which may contribute to population decline.

What is the best fitness measure in wild populations? A case study on the power of short-term fitness proxies to predict reproductive value

V. Z. Alif, J. Dunning, H. Y. J. Chik, T. Burke, J. Schroeder

This study compares short-term fitness proxies in wild birds to predict long-term reproductive values, finding that recruit-stage metrics provide the best predictions.

A Comparison of Persistence of SARS-CoV-2 Variants on Stainless Steel

T. Pottage, I. Garratt, O. Onianwa, A. Spencer, S. E. Paton, J. Dunning, A. M. Bennett

This study compares the persistence of SARS-CoV-2 variants on stainless steel to an established isolate, finding no significant difference in inactivation rates.

Persistence of SARS-CoV-2 virus and viral RNA on hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces and investigating contamination concentration

S. E. Paton, A. Spencer, I. Garratt, K.-A. Thompson, I. Dinesh, P. AranegaBou, D. Stevenson, S. O. Clark, J. Dunning, A. M. Bennett, T. Pottage

This study examines the persistence of SARS-CoV-2 viability and RNA on different surfaces, finding that viability declines faster than RNA stability and is independent of initial concentration.
