The present study aims to assess the spatial and temporal variations of the hydrochemical characteristics of Mateur aquifer groundwaters, a crucial water resource in the northeast of Tunisia. The aquifer was subject to water quality deterioration due to salinization and nitrate contamination, and a new assessment of water quality was needed.

Wild animals are infected with a large diversity and abundance of parasites that can affect their behavior, growth, body condition, and ultimately their survival. Although the adverse effects of parasites and the mechanisms involved in the interactions between a host and its parasites are generally well studied, much less is known about the additive or

Data from automatic detection systems are a promising non‐invasive approach that requires few human and logistical resources to develop a more comprehensive bird collision risk mitigation strategy. They can be valuable to biodiversity stakeholders to highlight environmental factors that locally increase bird exposure and sensitivity, to avoid ...

ABSTRACT The installation of automatic detection systems (ADSs) on operating wind energy facilities is a mitigation measure to reduce bird collisions. The effectiveness of an ADS depends on a combination of parameters, including the detection distance of the bird, its flight speed, and the time to complete the chosen action (e.g., turbine shutdown). We

Evaluation of acaricide treatments to experimentally reduce winter tick load on moose
We experimentally reduced winter tick load on moose calves by testing the effectiveness of two acaricide treatments: topical permethrin (5% alone) and a combination of topical permethrin (44%) and orally administered fluralaner (25 mg/kg). We resighted moose calves through recaptures, necropsies or spring flyovers.

Offshore wind development complexity. Abstract Offshore wind is nowadays already well developed in the North European countries. Ninety‐nine percent of the offshore wind turbines are installed on fixed foundations in shallow waters. For areas with water depth greater than 50–60 m, the floating wind is the cheapest and mostly used technology.

Linking weather conditions and winter tick abundance in moose
Over the last decades, the number of moose infested by winter ticks has increased in eastern Canada, possibly because milder climatic conditions are increasing winter tick survival. Our main objective was to determine which meteorological variables are more likely to influence winter tick load on moose.

Insectivorous bats alter their flight and feeding behaviour at ground‐mounted solar farms
The negative effects of solar farms on bat flight and feeding behaviour should be considered when solar energy projects are planned. Research is needed to understand the mechanisms underlying the effects; for example, shading underneath solar panels may reduce plant biomass and therefore insect prey availability.

Caractérisation des vents pour une exploitation de la ressource éolienne à Mayotte
Dans le cadre de sa politique de diversification de ses ressources énergétiques, une évaluation du potentiel éolien -sur deux sites stratégiques- a été réalisée pour la première fois à Mayotte, une île de l’océan Indien.
