This article examines the ways in which Fflur Dafydd’s 2008 novel Twenty Thousand Saints negotiates notions of the island space in a post-devolution Welsh context. It argues that the novel is a rich site in the analysis of the literary dimension of what Baldacchino describes as the “island-mainland [...] dialectic” (Baldacchino, 2006, p. 10). Set on Bardsey, a real small island off the coast of...
In stressful environments, facilitation often aids plant establishment, but invasive plant pathogens may potentially disrupt these interactions. In many treeline communities in the northern Rocky Mountains of the U.S. and Canada, Pinus albicaulis, a stress-tolerant pine, initiates tree islands at higher frequencies than other conifers - that is, leads to leeward tree establishment more frequent...
Mangrove forests are one of the world’s most threatened tropical ecosystems. The study aimed assessing composition and diversity species in Camotes Island, Philippines, as basis for its conservation protection. A Belt line transect method was used, with a minimum length 1000m maximum 2000m along landward, middle, seaward at an interval 100m. Quadrat 10 x 10m were established within 250m. All pl...
Negative Interspecies Interactions in a Glaucous-winged Gull Colony on Protection Island, Washington
Protection Island, Washington, is one of the most important nesting sites for Glaucous-winged Gulls (Larus glaucescens) in the Puget Sound area. Changes in the numbers and distribution of nests in a Glaucous-winged Gull colony on Violet Point, Protection Island, were tracked from 1980 to 2010. The colony grew steadily until the early 1990s, then declined to about half its former level. The main...
The loss of biological diversity continues at an astounding rate, recently punctuated by the reported extinction of the Baiji or Yangtze River Dolphin (Lipotes vexillifer) [1]. The conservation landscape is dotted with similarly charismatic species that have become flagships for protection because of their increasing rarity. Although a miniscule fraction of biological diversity is at risk, flag...

Understanding the movement dynamics of marine fish provides valuable information that can assist with species management, particularly regarding protection within marine protected areas (MPAs). We performed an acoustic tagging study implemented within the Port Stephens-Great Lakes Marine Park on the mid-north coast of New South Wales, Australia, to assess the movement patterns, home range and d...
