The resistance of surfaces treated with oils and waxes to the action of dry heat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Surface treatment of wood can be done with different coatings, and the choice of the appropriate system of processing depends on several factors, such as technological, aesthetic, economic and ecological.

The wolf is back! Non‐consumptive effects of the return of a large carnivore on the use of supplementary feeding sites by roe deer

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus

Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Identifying the spatial and temporal scale at which animals select resources is critical for predicting how populations respond to changes in the environment. The spatial distribution of fine‐scale resources (e.g. patches of dense vegetation) are often linked with critical life‐history requirements such as denning and feeding sites.

Investigation of Color Parameters in Pine, Limba, Sapele, Iroko, Oak, and Beech Wood Species Exposed to Outdoor Conditions in Van City, Turkey

open access: yesBioResources, 2023
Sapele, pine, limba, iroko, beech, and oak wood species are important species used indoors and outdoors, as supplied by furniture companies. It is known that the color changes in wood material when exposed to the external environment.

Elevation reverses the effects of forest structure on folivory and leaf asymmetry

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Centuries of timber production have homogenized many forests by reducing variation in canopy density and deadwood availability, with far‐reaching consequences for biodiversity and trophic interactions.

The Venetian Vernacular Lexicon in Eleventh‐ and Twelfth‐Century Latin Documents: Insights from the Codice Diplomatico Veneziano

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the lexicographical potential of Medieval Latin documentation from the Venetian area of the Italo‐Romance domain, highlighting the need for a systematic approach to bridge Latin and vernacular linguistic developments. The project MEDITA – Medieval Latin Documentation and Digital Italo‐Romance Lexicography.

INFLUENCE OF MOISTURE DIFFUSION RATE OF BOUND WATER UPON THE DRYING TIME OF STEAMED AND UNSTEAMED BEECH WOOD [PDF]

open access: yesPro Ligno, 2015
The paper aims at establishing the drying time of beech wood below fiber saturation point, by taking into consideration the influence of thickness, drying temperature, pre-treatment by steaming and wood type (white wood compared to red heart). In order

Volatile organic compounds emitted from fungal-rotting beech (Fagus sylvatica) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Chemo-communication is an important mode of interaction within ecosystem. The living organism in the ecosystem can deliver signals to conspecifics, to co-organisms, and unintentionally to their enemies, by emitting the volatile organic compounds (VOCs ...

Uncovering temporal patterns of wildlife activity, habitat use and habitat preference from camera‐trap data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract An understanding of habitat use and levels of active behaviour is foundational to wildlife behaviour, ecology, conservation and management. These variables are commonly measured by tracking individuals in space and time using biologging. In principle, camera‐trap data also contain information about both activity level and habitat use; however,

Moisture-dependent elastic and strength anisotropy of European beech wood in tension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
While the general mechanical behaviour of wood is known, its moisture-dependent elastic and strength anisotropy remains little studied. Given the anisotropic and hygroscopic nature of wood, a characterisation of wood mechanical behaviour will require ...
