Effectiveness of the toxicant DRC‐1339 in reducing populations of common ravens in Wyoming
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2016 Common raven (Corvus corax) populations have increased several‐fold in the western United States during the past century; these birds cause problems when they kill new‐borne lambs and calves and depredate nests of greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We report a polymer‐chain insertion strategy to fabricate pore‐threaded MOF thin films with precisely tuned surface chemistry and wettability. Grafting n‐alkane chains into the pillared layer Cu2(bdc)2(dabco) MOF thin film's vertical nanochannels enhances water stability, and induces hydrophobicity and lubricant‐free, solid‐like slippery behavior ...
