Spatial behavior of socially isolated wild pigs (Sus scrofa) following sounder removal via trapping
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Following partial sounder removal, socially isolated wild pigs maintained site fidelity near traps, highlighting post‐control behavioral tendencies that are relevant to pest management and disease mitigation. Abstract BACKGROUND The rapid expansion of wild pig (Sus scrofa) populations across North America, coupled with increased concern over disease ...

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The cabbage stem flea beetle (Psylliodes chrysocephala) is a major pest of winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus). We tested B. napus and Sinapis alba seedlings for feeding resistance and underlying chemical defenses. S. alba was least damaged, while metabolite profiles revealed resistance‐linked compounds, highlighting breeding potential for insect ...

Potential Impacts of Low Flows on Fish Foodscapes and Production in a Braided River
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Changes in river discharge affect the physical composition and connectivity of habitats which, in turn, may shape the spatial distribution of fish food abundance, accessibility and quality—the ‘foodscape’—of river ecosystems. However, the influence of river flows on fish foodscapes has received very little attention from scientists. We studied

Knee height is often right: evaluating device height effects on camera trapping rate
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Camera trap deployment height can introduce systematic biases in detection trapping rates across species of different body sizes. Combining 172 paired sampling points in five experiments across Europe, North America and Africa, our results show that low cameras significantly increase detections of small‐ and medium‐sized species, whereas high cameras ...

The Path to Neutrality: Evaluating Carbon Offsetting Strategies Among Spanish Corporations
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines how offset project characteristics and financial conditions shape the intensity of corporate carbon offsetting in voluntary carbon markets (VCMs). Focusing on a Southern European context, the analysis draws on a longitudinal panel of 357 Spanish firms observed between 2019 and 2022.
