Summary According to the enemy release hypothesis (ERH), the fitness of exotic plants and their capacity to become invasive in their area of introduction may partly be attributable to the loss of their natural enemies. Invasive species may also benefit from modifying soil attributes and thereby creating a positive soil–plant feedback.

Ungulate prey availability to inform Mexican wolf recovery within its historical range
We estimated the potential ecological carrying capacity for the Mexican wolf based exclusively on ungulate prey biomass estimated from camera trap surveys. In the United States, the potential density estimate is high (21.4–52.7 wolves/1,000 km2) owing to the presence and relatively high densities of elk, mule deer, and white‐tailed deer.

Populism and the Prosecution of Former Democratic Leaders
ABSTRACT The rise of populist leaders to power in recent decades has prompted a growing literature on the impacts of populist rule, especially in democracies. Research addressing the effects on key democratic institutions finds the result to be predominantly negative: populist rule undermines several key mechanisms of accountability.

Summary Genetic load can reduce fitness and hinder adaptation. While its genetic underpinnings are well established, the influence of environmental variation on genetic load is less well characterized, as is the relationship between genetic load and putatively adaptive genetic variation.

This study used ecologically realistic enclosures with pumpkin toadlets to simulate short‐term drought conditions in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Drought reduced the overall levels of a harmful amphibian fungus, but it also disrupted their protective skin‐associated bacteria and caused the toadlets to cluster in wet areas of the enclosures, which ...

In this study, we examined how morphological traits and species diversity of Pyraloidea moths vary with temperature and vegetation cover along an Andean rainforest gradient in Ecuador. Using 4161 individuals (212 species) and cross‐validating with a larger dataset of 10,337 individuals (749 morpho‐species), we found a near‐linear decrease in diversity ...

Influence of the distance between projectiles in simultaneous multiple impacts on CFRP laminates
The influence of the distance between projectiles in the simultaneous multiple impact phenomenon on CFRP laminate plates was investigated using a numerical model. Abstract Composite structures in the aerospace and railway industries frequently experience single or multiple low‐ or high‐velocity impacts.
