Noninvasive diode laser–an effective and safe treatment of iris cysts in 46 eyes of 35 horses
Abstract Background Iris cysts in horses are often asymptomatic and noticed incidentally. However, cysts can cause local corneal oedema and erratic behaviour like shying, decreased performance and head‐shaking. Objectives To describe the use of diode laser as a noninvasive treatment option for iris cysts in the horse and to document factors influencing

Evident but context‐dependent mortality of fish passing hydroelectric turbines
Abstract Globally, policies aiming for conservation of species, free‐flowing rivers, and promotion of hydroelectricity as renewable energy and as a means to decarbonize energy systems generate trade‐offs between protecting freshwater fauna and development of hydropower. Hydroelectric turbines put fish at risk of severe injury during passage. Therefore,

Prioritizing forest management actions to benefit marine habitats in data‐poor regions
Abstract Land‐use change is considered one of the greatest human threats to marine ecosystems globally. Given limited resources for conservation, we adapted and scaled up a spatially explicit, linked land–sea decision support tool using open access global geospatial data sets and software to inform the prioritization of future forest management ...

Achieving Transboundary Water Security Through Water Innovations: A Framework and Cases
ABSTRACT Alternative sources of freshwater, provided by various innovations, have long been available to countries facing acute water stress. We hypothesize that avoiding and/or resolving conflict with neighbors—caused by the uncertainty of continued access to shared surface water and groundwater sources—is another driver of innovation adoption ...
