Pest Management Science, EarlyView.An environmental DNA (eDNA)‐based recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA)‐CRISPR/Cas12a assay enables rapid, specific, and on‐site detection of chironomids, supporting early warning, and ecological monitoring in freshwater environments. Abstract BACKGROUND Freshwater chironomid midges pose a significant threat to drinking water quality and ...

Processes controlling the quantities of biogenic materials in lakes and reservoirs subject to cultural eutrophication [PDF]
, 1980 The processes which control the growth, composition, succession and loss from suspension of phytoplankton algae are briefly reviewed, with special reference to function in eutrophic reservoir systems.

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.The study quantifies environmental impacts of 1 L of ultra‐high‐temperature milk bottles, comparing a 50% recycled opaque PET (rPET) bottle with 100% virgin PET bottles under closed‐loop and non‐closed‐loop recycling scenarios. Results show that 50% opaque rPET bottles outperform 100% virgin PET bottles across all impact categories, enabled by an ...

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The past decade has witnessed a burgeoning demand of metals for global industrial development and infrastructure. Meanwhile, the depletion of mineral resources and the environmental damage caused by wastewater discharges pose significant threats to both economic and ecological sustainability. Fortunately, metal‐containing wastewaters also hold

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During the past decade, major upgrades have been made to the Kitchener and Waterloo wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in the Grand River watershed in Ontario, Canada. As part of efforts to evaluate the effectiveness of these investments (>$450 M CDN), a benthic macroinvertebrate (BMI) monitoring program was initiated by sampling upstream and

Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

UAVs unveil the role of small scale vegetation structure on wader nest survival
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.In this study, we combine high‐resolution vegetation structural metrics derived from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery with on‐field wader nest survival monitoring. We show that the immediate vegetation height and heterogeneity within a 2‐meter buffer surrounding the clutch of the recorded ground‐nesting wader species positively influenced its ...

Evaluating methods for high‐resolution, national‐scale seagrass mapping in Google Earth Engine
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Marine habitat mapping using satellite imagery can provide baseline and monitoring data across large spatial scales and in remote locations globally. This study evaluates how key methodological choices influence the accuracy of open‐source (for non‐commercial use), cloud‐based satellite mapping workflows for seagrass meadows in the Maldives.

Frontiers in Microbiomes“Classical eutrophication” occurs when raw unfixed nutrients enter an aquatic environment. This causes the deleterious proliferation in fauna most adept at exploiting this abundance of nutrition. The net effect is de-diversification.
