ABSTRACT Vegetation succession in aquatic and littoral habitats has received much less attention than terrestrial habitats have. We sampled differently aged successional stages at five different types of post‐mining sites, that is, sandpits, stone quarries, clay quarries, brown coal spoil heaps and black coal subsidences, across the Czech Republic ...

Reconstructing Early Human Subsistence in Near Oceania: New Insights From Matenkupkum and Matenbek
ABSTRACT The colonization of New Ireland ~44–40,000 years ago represents the earliest evidence of human occupation in Near Oceania. Yet, the precise impacts of climatic changes on subsistence strategies during the Late Pleistocene, Last Glacial Maximum, and Holocene remain poorly understood.

Road mortality alters the body size and age structure of amphibians
Road mortality affects a wide range of animal species, including amphibians. Worldwide, many amphibian species, including the Asiatic toad Bufo gargarizans, are impacted by road mortality, but the ecological consequences remain poorly understood. This study aimed to evaluate how road mortality influences population traits by comparing body sizes and ...
