The paper examines the impact of increasing wild ungulate density on snow leopard predation of livestock in the Trans-Himalaya, finding apparent competition rather than facilitation.

The paper assesses bird diversity in different land-use types in the Western Ghats, finding that low-elevation forests support higher biodiversity than agroforestry plantations.

This study examines how Forest Owlets select habitats across multiple scales in Gujarat, finding that they thrive in agroforestry systems when certain conditions are met.

This study shows that chronic disturbance in tropical forests favors deciduous over evergreen tree communities, especially under water stress, in the Western Ghats.

This study uses whole-genome sequencing of 41 snow leopards to show they have the lowest genetic diversity of any big cat species due to long-term small population size, not recent inbreeding.

The paper examines the ecological and genetic resilience of traditional crops in the Indian Trans Himalaya, finding they are better adapted to local conditions and have greater genetic diversity than introduced crops.

This paper presents 101 research questions for advancing Indian ornithology, identified through expert curation and scoring based on generality, novelty, and relevance.

This paper presents a methodology to assess bird species status in India using semi-structured citizen science data, finding declines in 204 species long-term and 142 species currently.

The study found no White-bellied Heron sightings in Namdapha Tiger Reserve in 2023-24, compared to 0.55 herons per km in 2017, suggesting a possible decline or local extinction.
