Edges as ecological filters: Asymmetrical orientation‐specific arthropod activity across forest boundaries

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Climatic conditions, landscape, and habitat quality drive patch occupancy and larval density of a threatened mire butterfly

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The Moorland Clouded Yellow (Colias palaeno) benefited from cattle grazing in three different ways by (i) fostering the nectar supply; (ii) enhancing rejuvenation of the host plant (Vaccinium uliginosum); and (iii) improving microclimatic conditions for successful development of the immature stages.

Can Wapiti (Cervus elaphus) Browsing Stimulate the Chemical Defense of Taxus cuspidata—A Case of Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We study that browsing by wapiti reduces the growth of saplings, and it develop chemical defenses to prevent themselves browsed again. These results reduce our concern about wapiti browse T. cuspidate saplings, and provide basic data for the study of the interaction between them, and also provide theoretical basis for the population restoration and ...

The Unintended Consequences of German Deterrence

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Germany's evolving deterrence posture boils down to continued participation in NATO nuclear sharing and an ambitious conventional rearmament program. Due to its non‐nuclear status and a result of decades of underinvestment, Germany prioritizes modern conventional weapons.

Prey Partitioning in a Diverse Carnivore Community: Implications for Reintroduced Fishers in Washington

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...
