Beyond species means – the intraspecific contribution to global wood density variation
Summary Wood density is central for estimating vegetation carbon storage and a plant functional trait of great ecological and evolutionary importance. However, the global extent of wood density variation is unclear, especially at the intraspecific level. We assembled the most comprehensive wood density collection to date, including 109 626 records from

Rapport de mission au Bénin pour le projet CFC/ICAC/33. Activité D.2.2. Analyse de la variabilité intra-balle des caractéristiques technologiques des fibres de coton. Du 25 janvier au 1 février 2010 [PDF]
This mission was designed to support Modeste ABOE in his PhD preparation. After meeting cotton sector members, we saw how to get an automatic update of a Word file (the PhD document or any publication) with Endnote bibliography references.

Use of a Cytobrush for Sampling the Ear Canal of Dogs With Otitis Externa
Cytological examination of the ear canal is essential for evaluating dogs with otitis externa (OE). The conventional sampling method uses a swab. However, the cytobrush (gynaecological cervical brush), already used for cytological collection from other anatomical sites, has not been adequately investigated for this purpose in dogs with OE.

Comparison of drone and ground surveys for the detection of a rare plant in a fragile ecosystem
We compared the accuracy, time, and financial costs of drone and ground surveys for the detection of wood lilies (Lilium philadelphicum) in an endangered alvar ecosystem. We found that the drone surveys detected 73%–78% of the plants found in the ground surveys, but that this type of survey was more expensive and time consuming than the ground survey ...

Minimizing aviation lighting duration reduces bat attraction to wind turbines
This study provides empirical evidence that attraction behaviour of bats towards wind turbines is driven, at least partially, by red aviation lighting. We also demonstrate that smart lighting of wind turbines, such as the ADLS, could cost‐effectively help mitigate disruption of bat habitat use and the associated collision risks.
