Labor conditions in wildlife fieldwork and implications for scientific integrity and safety

The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, EarlyView.
Abstract Wildlife fieldwork underpins ecological and sustainable science, yet the labor conditions of those who conduct it remain uneven. Wildlife technicians routinely operate under hazardous conditions while working on short‐term contracts with limited job security, restricted decision‐making power, and insufficient structural protections.

Enhanced propionate and butyrate metabolism in cecal microbiota contributes to cold-stress adaptation in sheep

Microbiome
Background During cold stress, gut microbes play crucial roles in orchestrating energy metabolism to enhance environmental adaptation. In sheep, hindgut microbes ferment carbohydrates to generate short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) as an energy source ...

Reframing Colonial Korea's Forests Through Protection Forests: The Forests of Joseon (1938)

Berichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, EarlyView.
This study examines The Forests of Joseon (1938), a forestry survey compiled by Tokumitsu Nobuyuki under Japanese colonial rule, as a key site of epistemic negotiation between imperial forestry science and Korean indigenous knowledge. Focusing on bíbo forests—geomantic forests believed to regulate energy flow between mountains and villages—the paper ...

Different VOC species derived from fugitive emissions at various altitudes around petrochemical plant

Atmospheric Environment: X
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from fugitive sources are crucial for environmental and health risk assessments. However, monitoring these emissions at ground level, according to traditional technical specifications, has made it challenging to ...

Functional Diversity and Oleaginous Potential of Fungal Strains From Hawaiian Soil Ecosystems

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungi represent an important but underexplored resource for microbial lipid production, including nutritionally valuable polyunsaturated fatty acids. Hawaiian soils, shaped by volcanic parent materials and strong environmental gradients, provide a unique setting for discovering functionally diverse fungal strains with distinct metabolic traits.

Between and Within Bay Differences in Mesozooplankton Assemblages in the Central and Eastern Baltic Sea: An Exploratory Study

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Mesozooplankton assemblages differed significantly both between and within Baltic Sea bays, driven mainly by local salinity and temperature gradients. Distinct communities occurred over distances of less than 1 km, demonstrating strong fine‐scale spatial variability.

Spatio‐Temporal Assessment of Fish Biodiversity in High‐Density Cascade Dam Rivers Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
This study employed eDNA technology for biodiversity surveys and conducted high‐density spatiotemporal eDNA sampling to evaluate ecosystem‐scale patterns across temporal, spatial, and habitat dimensions. We identified 97 fish species from 12 orders, 29 families, and 71 genera using eDNA technology. Spatially, fish diversity indices were correlated with

Restructuring of the epiphytic microbiome and recruitment of algicidal bacteria by Vallisneria natans for the suppression of Microcystis

Frontiers in Plant Science
The effective suppression of cyanobacteria by submerged macrophytes is a key mechanism underlying the successful restoration of aquatic vegetation in some eutrophic water bodies.
