The value of saltbush revegetation for biodiversity in a highly fragmented landscape

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Saltbush revegetation provides limited value for faunal biodiversity. Saltbush has the lowest species richness and diversity of ants, spiders, and birds. Remnant habitats continue to provide the most important habitats for native species. Abstract Secondary salinization is a significant global issue affecting up to 1 billion hectares of land, impacting

Effectiveness and adherence in a tirzepatide‐supported digital weight‐loss programme in Australia: A real‐world observational study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Obesity is a growing global health crisis; pharmacotherapies such as tirzepatide combined with multidisciplinary lifestyle support have shown promise but real‐world evidence in digital weight‐loss services (DWLSs) is limited. This retrospective study evaluated 6‐ and 12‐month weight loss, adherence and predictors of outcomes in an ...

Scolicidal Effects of Mixture of Artemisia, Eucalyptus and Ginger Extracts on Hydatid Cyst Protoscolices

Journal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, 2018
Background and purpose: Hydatidosis is highly prevalent worldwide which mainly involves liver and lung. There are some drugs sensitive to the hydatid disease but surgery is still the most common form of treatment.

Breeding in natural nesting sites can improve the resilience of local Lesser Kestrel (Falco naumanni) populations to environmental changes

Ibis, EarlyView.
The identification of key habitats of threatened species and of extrinsic environmental factors that influence their resilience to human‐induced environmental changes are the foundation for the definition of conservation objectives. Using the presence and numerical abundance data collected in a long‐term survey (2000–24) of breeding colonies of Lesser ...

Threatened cockatoo adapts foraging strategy to survive habitat loss from fire

Ibis, EarlyView.
Fire regimes are changing across the globe as a result of human‐induced climate change. For granivorous bird species, changes in fire regimes can affect seed availability and the persistence of populations. We investigated the foraging behaviour of Glossy Black Cockatoos Calyptorhynchus lathami halmaturinus, a resource specialist, following large‐scale

Comparison of some macro-nutrient elements in foliar of six eucalypt species at a 24 year-old plantation [PDF]

مجله جنگل ایران, 2011
Studying the soil and eucalypt relationships is essential for eucalypts plantation and avoidance of their negative effects on soil productivity. For this purpose, eucalypt species trial consisting of six species (E. camaldulensis, E.

Critical tipping points in dung beetle communities: Implications for conservation in the Atlantic Forest biome

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Minor land‐use changes consistently lead to abrupt biodiversity shifts across all diversity dimensions, favoring generalist dung beetle species while excluding sensitive specialists. These shifts are observed at lower environmental change rates than previously considered, with significant changes apparent after just 25% habitat loss.

The allelopathic effects of Eucalyptus and Acacia plantations on the understory vegetation (Case study: Nourabad-Mamasani) [PDF]

مجله جنگل ایران, 2013
Afforestation with native or non-native species affects understory vegetation. These effects, besides of edaphic and climatologic factors, also depend on the species of the plants which are used.

Evaluating Sawdust as a Bulking Agent to Enhance Black Soldier Fly Larvae (Hermetia illucens) Performance and Survival in Potato Peels

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rearing of black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) offers a sustainable approach for producing high‐protein larvae for animal feed, contributing to waste reduction and nutrient recovery. While BSFL‐rearing is well studied, the role of non‐nutritive bulking agents such as sawdust remains unclear. Sawdust was added on top of the base substrate at 0%

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...
