Letting People in: Redefining Collaboration in Wildland–Urban Interface Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intensifying wildfire regimes and expanding human settlements into wilderness areas have heightened concerns about the wildland–urban interface (WUI) due to the associated increase in fire risk. However, the WUI presents broader social‐ecological challenges that go beyond wildfire risk and remain understudied.

By‐product of heparin extraction as a sustainable alternative to enhance the use of nitrogen in agriculture

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluates the potential of a new organic fertilizer derived from porcine intestinal mucosa (designated BHE), a by‐product of the heparin extraction process, as a sustainable nitrogen (N) source for agriculture. The work was conducted in two stages: (i) chemical and spectroscopic characterization of BHE compared with poultry litter ...

Wintertime CO2 evolution from a boreal forest ecosystem

, 2005
We investigated wintertime ecosystem activity and CO2 efflux over three winters (1 November–28 February 1997–2000) in a boreal Scots pine stand in Finland. During the three winters the cumulative wintertime CO2 efflux measured with continuously operating

Predicting Forest Age up to 250 Years in Old-Growth Boreal Mixedwoods of Western Quebec, Canada, Using Airborne Laser Scanning Data and Modelled Tree Species Composition

Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing
Old-growth boreal forests play a key role in global conservation policies. Forest age maps, however, tend to lose accuracy as stands age, making it impossible to consider the full successional diversity of old-growth forests.

Effect of Tree Species and Mycorrhizal Colonization on the Archaeal Population of Boreal Forest Rhizospheres

, 2008
Group 1.1c Crenarchaeota are the predominating archaeal group in acidic boreal forest soils. In this study, we show that the detection frequency of 1.1c crenarchaeotal 16S rRNA genes in the rhizospheres of the boreal forest trees increased following ...

Multi‐synergistic strategy for dual‐sensing conductive hydrogels capable of simultaneous strain and temperature monitoring

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this study, a multicomponent synergistic strategy is utilized, which capitalizes on the “intersection” of multiple functional influencing factors to achieve the successful development of a multifunctional hydrogel. Through the construction of a unique three‐dimensional dynamic cross‐linked network, the material combines mechanical strength ...
