Evaluating Bergmann's and Allen's rules in the long bones of the eastern gray squirrel

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ecogeographical rules predict variation in body size and appendage proportions across climatic gradients, yet intraspecific tests using long bones from wild populations remain limited among small mammals. This study tests the hypothesis that eastern gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) conform to Bergmann's rule, that is, body size increases ...

Response of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) to bacterial soil inoculants and foliar fertilization

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2016
Soybean yields can be considerably improved by inoculation with selected Bradyrhizobium japonicum strains and foliar fertilization. An exact field experiment was carried out in 2012-2014 at the Experimental Station of Cultivar Assessment in Przecław ...

Prospecting of Architectural Features Using LiDAR‐UAV Technology, Deep Neural Networks and Visualization Techniques: A Case Study in Kuélap and Cambolín (NW Peru)

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐resolution and accurate synoptic images of terrestrial topography, even in densely forested areas, have proven valuable for archaeology by enabling the identification and characterization of relief patterns associated with ancient human activities. This study presents a novel approach that integrates digital terrain models (DTMs) obtained

A Century of Learning: The Story of ESA's Education Committee, 1918–2025

The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, EarlyView.
Abstract The Education Committee and its precursors have been highly influential within the Ecological Society of America. Here we document the Education Committee's history, from its origins in reviewing curricular materials through major contributions to ecological literacy, teaching innovation, diversity initiatives, and professional development ...

Mechanism Analysis and Optimal Design of Return Impact of a Certain Aircraft Canopy Actuator

Actuators
During the closure of a specific aircraft canopy, oil leakage occurs from the pressure tank’s overflow port in the gas–liquid control system. This issue often occurs during closure, potentially leading to reduced system oil and impacting the normal ...

Enhancing the Secretion Systems: Genetic Engineering of Super Bioagents for Effective Plant Disease Control

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Genetic engineering (GE) overcomes BCA limits, enabling robust, scalable crop protection. “Super Bioagents” (SBs) use optimized SSs to enhance bioactive molecule delivery. Optimizing SSs enhance precise, sustainable effector deployment for stable disease suppression. SBs use microbiome‐informed design for scalable, next‐gen sustainable crop protection.

Comparative Assessment of Landsat‐8 and SPOT‐7 Satellite Data With Field Spectral Measurements for Estimating Plant Diversity in Sandy Grasslands

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
We compared Landsat‐8 OLI, SPOT, and hyperspectral data for estimating vascular plant diversity in China's Hunshandak Sandland. SPOT data showed the strongest correlation with alpha diversity, followed by hyperspectral data, with Landsat‐8 performing the weakest.

Canopy elastic turbulence: Insights and analogies to canopy inertial turbulence

PNAS Nexus
Abstract Canopy flows occur when a moving fluid encounters a matrix of free-standing obstacles and are found in diverse systems, from forests and marine ecology to urban landscapes and biology (e.g. cilia arrays). In large-scale systems, involving Newtonian fluids (like water or air), canopy flows typically exhibit inertial turbulence ...

Differential Elevational Diversity Between Overstory and Understory in Tropical Forests

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Tropical forest overstory and understory exhibit contrasting elevational α‐diversity patterns (unimodal vs. bimodal). Community differentiation is driven by species turnover of dominant rather than rare species, highlighting the need for vertically stratified conservation across the full elevational gradient.

Arboreal camera trapping reveals diel-vertical migrations in arboreal wildlife of the Peruvian Amazon rainforest

Environmental Research: Ecology
Tropical forests harbor much of Earth’s biodiversity, with the ground to emergent canopy forming dynamic three-dimensional habitats. Arboreal and semi-arboreal species navigate the vertically heterogeneous environment, in temperature, light, predation ...
