Abstract:
Urbanization is one of the most widespread and extreme examples of habitat alteration. As humans dominate landscapes, they introduce novel elements into environments, including artificial light, noise pollution, and anthropogenic food sources. One understudied form of anthropogenic food is refuse from restaurants, which can alter wildlife populations and, in turn, entire wildlife communities by providing a novel and stable food source. Using data from the Maricopa Association of Governments and the Central Arizona-Phoenix Long Term Ecological Research (CAP LTER) project, we investigated whethe

Urban habitats provide wildlife with predictable, easily accessible and abundant food sources in the form of human food waste. Urban eastern gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) are commonly observed feeding in trash bins, but we lack data regarding the type, quantity and seasonal changes in food waste usage. We observed five trash bins on an urban university campus during four different observation periods. We recorded the time squirrels spent on and inside trash bins and type of retrieved food items. We also recorded ambient temperature, human presence and trash bin filling. Moreover, we de

It has been postulated that red foxes (Vulpesvulpes) inhabiting Prince Edward Island National Park (Canada) make very little use of natural food sources and that anthropogenic food play an integral part in their diet. The use of anthropogenic food sources has also been associated with an increased number of fatal fox vehicle-collisions in the park. The main goal of this study was to examine the composition of the diet of foxes inhabiting Prince Edward Island National Park and to compare this diet with foxes found in other areas of the island.

Climate change and agriculture have a dual mode of relationship. Agriculture is an important sector of the country’s economy and it significantly contributes to climate change by releasing greenhouse gases (GHGs) to the atmosphere. On the other hand, climate change is a global threat to food security and it can affect agriculture through variation of weather parameters. Reducing GHGs emission mainly methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) from the agriculture could play a significant role in climate change mitigation. N2O is a potent greenhouse gas mainly emitted from rice-wheat cropping system.

Anthropogenic activities are considered as the primary sources of PAHs including the combustion of refuse, exhaust of motor vehicles, contaminated food, and industrial food processing such as smoking processes and some cooking practices like grilling and roasting.

However, in recent years, anthropogenic activities have facilitated these species to dominate their native ecosystems, forming increasingly homogenous reed beds, and furthermore to invade many non native habitats.
