eDNA-based approaches advance ecotoxicology: Insights and best practices from eDNA metabarcoding studies in evaluating stress-induced aquatic (macro-) invertebrate community composition

Ecological Indicators
Aquatic ecosystems are confronted with increasing levels of anthropogenic stress, prompting the need for rapid and reliable biomonitoring methods to allow ecological risk assessment and start science-based mitigation activities. Morphology-based sampling

Press Hardening for Sustainable Lightweight Chassis Design in Heavy‐Duty Vehicles: A Material Performance and Life Cycle Assessment Approach

steel research international, EarlyView.
The article explores how high‐strength steels and press hardening revolutionize lightweight chassis design for heavy‐duty vehicles. It reveals that press hardened steels combined with shot peening can cut weight by up to 34% and reduce environmental impact by 21%–32%.

Abundance and occupancy trends of sooty grouse in western Oregon: determining best modeling practices by comparing observed and simulated data

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Sooty grouse Dendragapus fuliginosus are large game birds that occupy montane forests in the Pacific Northwest, USA. These forests have been altered by human activities, which have been shown to have both positive and negative impacts on local populations.

Passive acoustic monitoring with AI‐based detection and identification reveal sooty grouse hooting patterns in western Oregon

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many bird species are monitored using auditory point count surveys during the breeding season. Autonomous recording units (ARUs) can be used to better understand the daily and seasonal timing of when a species is vocalizing, which can help align surveys with the time period when the maximum number of individuals are present. We used ARUs to improve our

Green and blue infrastructure but not anthropogenic drivers affect invertebrate communities in urban ecosystems

Ecological Indicators
Rapid urbanization alters habitat quality and connectivity, influencing species dispersal and ultimately shaping community assembly. Increasingly, urban environments and their vegetation are shown to be important for the conservation of biodiversity ...

Delayed Gastric Bleeding in a Patient With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: A Case of Post-Biopsy Bleeding. [PDF]

DEN Open
The presence of underlying conditions, particularly malignancies such as myeloproliferative disorders, may increase the risk of delayed bleeding following gastric mucosal biopsy, and similar cases warrant careful accumulation and evaluation in future. ABSTRACT A 76‐year‐old man was referred to our hospital for evaluation of anemia.

HOUSING RETROFIT AND THE JUST TRANSITION IN THE METROPOLIS: Governance, Redistribution, and Inequality in London and Barcelona

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Metropolises are rapidly becoming spaces of stark inequalities. While much literature has emphasized the metropolitan scale as a driver of agglomeration economies, recent scholarship highlights either the ungovernable nature of large metropolises or the weak redistributive capacity of their governments as key causes of increasingly unequal ...

Second-hand smartphones reduce carbon emissions, yet shorter use times limit actual gains

Communications Earth & Environment
Product reuse advances circular economy by reducing material demand. However, environmental assessments often assume reused products fully replace new ones, or they overlook market changes and shortened lifespans driven by resale and repurchase ...
