The density and diversity of birds on farmland in West Africa

, 2008
The area of land farmed in Africa is predicted to double by the year 2050 yet very few African studies have investigated the impact of different farming intensities and regimes on bird communities. This study examined avian species richness and diversity

Physics‐Based Compact Modeling of Advanced 3D Nanoscale Vertical NAND Flash Memory

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
For advanced 3D NAND flash memory, a unified compact model for SPICE is proposed that spans from the intrinsic unit cell to the full string and captures the electrostatic coupling with adjacent inhibit strings. It can successfully predict read behavior, program/erase dynamics, and interactions between neighboring cells, reflecting array‐level behavior ...

A Comprehensive Microscopy Analysis of the Retina of Larus audouinii (Payraudeau, 1826): Environmental and Ecological Insights

Birds
The retinal structure is generally conserved across vertebrates; however, variations occur due to the relationship between environmental factors and visual perception.

Optimizing sampling design to deal with mist-net avoidance in Amazonian birds and bats [PDF]

, 2013
Mist netting is a widely used technique to sample bird and bat assemblages. However, captures often decline with time because animals learn and avoid the locations of nets. This avoidance or net shyness can substantially decrease sampling efficiency.

Contribution of Seasonal Streams to the Conservation of Native and Migratory Birds in a Coastal Region Undergoing Urbanization

Birds
Urbanization has drastically transformed natural landscapes, threatening biodiversity by reducing species richness and abundance in cities. In this context, seasonal streams serve as refuge areas for various bird species.

Understanding Egg Price Volatility and Policy Implications in the U.S. With Machine Learning

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eggs are an inexpensive and sustainable source of proteins, but volatility in the U.S. egg prices has intensified in recent years, raising concerns over food affordability and market stability. This study examines the drivers of U.S. egg price dynamics over 2004–2025 using a two‐stage framework that combines LASSO‐based variable selection with

Species Differences and Tissue Distribution of Heavy Metal Residues in Wild Birds

Birds are useful as bioindicators of metal pollution, but the variety of species and tissue distribution may influence the study of heavy metal burdens in birds. The objective of this study was to determine the levels of heavy metals in wild birds’

Hemp Cultivation and Crop Diversification: Implications for Ecosystem Services in Kentucky

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the ecosystem benefits of expanding hemp cultivation by assessing its impact on crop diversity. Using scenario‐based simulations and fixed‐effect panel regressions with county‐level data in Kentucky, we find that increased hemp acreage tends to enhance crop diversity, improving water quality and bird diversity.
