Bioindication of troposheric ozone by native vegetation: the potential of Viburnum lantana for large-scale surveys [PDF]
Tropospheric ozone is one of the most important phytotoxic air pollutant. Biomonitoring by native plants is an option when the assessment of its impact on vegetation in large-scale surveys and in remote areas is of concern.

The Occurrence of Microplastic Ingestion in Commercial Marine Fish in Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia
ABSTRACT Microplastics are polymer‐based particle compositions of various toxic chemicals with size less than 5 mm. Due to their small size, microplastics can be ingested and accumulate in body tissues of organisms. This raises concerns about their toxicity being transferred to humans via food consumption.

Evaluating Conservation Corridor Success for Rare and Common Dragonflies Using Zeta Diversity
This study applied the zeta diversity framework to evaluate how conservation corridors in South African timber plantations impact dragonfly assemblages, finding that corridors function similarly to natural habitats. The research findings showed that dragonfly species richness was higher in corridors than in natural areas, consistently declining with ...
