Experimental evidence that estimates of demographic parameters depend on initial population size

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Classical population models assume that estimated parameters, such as intrinsic growth rate, depend on the species of interest and its environment, but not on the initial population size N(0). However, it has been theoretically proposed that this dependence is a mathematical consequence of reducing a two‐dimensional system (e.g.

BIOLOGICAL TECHNIQUE IN REDUCING THE WATER DISSOLVED NUTRIENTS IN THE DAIRY WASTEWATER BY USING DUCKWEED [PDF]

open access: yesMesopotamia Journal of Agriculture, 2012
The experiment was conducted in an ideal field of non-fully control studying the impact of the arbitration included duckweed plant in water to remove the dissolved nutrients (ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and phosphorus) from waste water of dairy products ...

Comparing the Effects of Microplastics From Conventional Cigarette Butts and Heated Tobacco Device: The Role of UV‐Induced Aging

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the widespread presence of cigarette butts in the environment, the potential toxicological effects posed by microplastics (MPs) derived from them remain poorly understood. In this study, we compared the effects of MPs from conventional cigarette butts (cellulose acetate) and heated tobacco devices (cellulose acetate and polylactic acid

For colonization success, should hosts and microbes travel alone, together, or swap partners along the way?

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Experimental co‐introduction of duckweeds (Lemna japonica) and their microbiome in a common pond. Summary Microbiomes that enhance the performance of host plants are likely to be co‐introduced with their host during colonization because of their intimate association.

Duckweeds under salt stress: a meta‐analysis of growth inhibition in relation to morphological and physiological traits and a systematic review of molecular responses

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Salinity reduces duckweed growth responses. Summary Salinity is one of the main environmental factors limiting the performance of duckweeds and despite growing ecological and biotechnological interest in these macrophytes, there is a lack of quantitative analyses of their responses to sodium chloride.

Quantitative and Qualitative Traits of Duckweed (Lemna minor) Produced on Growth Media with Pig Slurry

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
Duckweed is a plant with high phytoremediation abilities, which is why it is used in the process of cleaning the aquatic environment. The present study aimed to determine the effect of various concentrations of pig slurry added to the growth media used ...

Sustainable Aquaculture Industry in Kenya: Mapping Inputs for Fish Feed, Constraints, and Opportunities for Youth Involvement

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2027.
The cost of aquafeed continues to constrain aquaculture production amidst the availability of locally available ingredients for feed formulation and technological opportunities. Information dissemination and innovative rethinking on the utilization of local opportunities and youthful labor may spur the growth of the sector, thus improving fish protein.

Using Multi‐Point Activity Surveys for identifying Daubenton's bat (Myotis daubentonii, Kuhl, 1817) commuting routes and selecting candidate dark corridors: A case study from the West Midlands, UK

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 4, October–December 2026.
Using Multi‐Point Activity Surveys to identify common commuting routes and key landscape features used by Daubenton's bats. In this case study from the West Midlands, the survey method sheds light on how and by what routes bats are commuting through a major conurbation. Abstract Context. In the complex balance between the landscapes of energy and fear,
