The Fish Community of an East African Mangrove: Effects of Turbidity and Distance from the Sea (2008)
Journal Article
Huxham, M., Kimani, E., & Augley, J. (2008). The Fish Community of an East African Mangrove: Effects of Turbidity and Distance from the Sea. Western Indian Ocean journal of marine science, 7(1), 57-67. https://doi.org/10.4314/wiojms.v7i1.48254

Mangroves are often reported as nursery grounds for fish. Fish may enter mangroves in order to avoid predators, but may not need to do so if turbidity provides a sufficient predator refuge outside the forest. This study assessed the effects of turbid...

Ovulation and Ovarian Cancer (2008)
Book Chapter
Hillier, S. G., Rae, M. T., & Gubbay, O. (2008). Ovulation and Ovarian Cancer. In Hormonal Carcinogenesis V; (171-178). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-69080-3_16

Ovarian cancer (OC) most frequently arises from the ovarian surface epithelium (OSE), which comprises a single layer of mesothelial, squamous-to-cuboidal cells covering the entire surface of the ovary (1). This dynamic cellular layer and underlying b... Read More about Ovulation and Ovarian Cancer.

Investigating the effects of predator removal and habitat management on nest success and breeding population size of a farmland passerine: a case study (2008)
Journal Article
White, P. J. C., Stoate, C., Szczur, J., & Norris, K. (2008). Investigating the effects of predator removal and habitat management on nest success and breeding population size of a farmland passerine: a case study. Ibis, 150, 178-190. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1474-919X.2008.00858.x

Passerines are especially vulnerable to predation at the pre-independence stage. Although the role of nest success in British farmland passerine declines is contentious, improvement in nest success through sympathetic management could play a role in...
