Linking distribution and return‐on‐investment models to optimize woody management for prairie grouse in Nebraska

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We modeled prairie grouse abundance across Nebraska and projected future woody encroachment to estimate population losses. By combining predicted gains from woody treatments with avoided losses and treatment costs, we mapped return on investment to identify areas for woody treatments that maximize benefits to greater prairie‐chickens and sharp‐tailed ...

Escaped farmed salmon and trout in Chile: incidence, impacts, and the need for an ecosystem view

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2013
The exponential growth of the salmonid farming industry during the last 3 decades has created conditions for massive escapes of these exotic species into natural environments in southern Chile.

Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

Discovery of edodine, a natural compound from Lentinula edodes with antibacterial activity for the biological control of fire blight pathogen Erwinia amylovora

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Novel edodine was identified from Lentinula edodes HK761, exhibiting biocontrol potential against fire blight by affecting motility, intracellular ATP level, and cell division of Erwinia amylovora. Abstract BACKGROUND In the search for biological resources with antibacterial activity against Erwinia amylovora, the culture filtrate of Lentinula edodes ...

Improved method for triacylglycerol-derived fatty acid profiling by various non-lethal and lethal sampling techniques in Atlantic salmon

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2013
The current paper compares the use of adipose fin and muscle biopsies as non-lethal sampling procedures, and the suitability of triacylglycerol (TAG) versus total lipid (TOT) fatty acid composition (fatty acid methyl esters, FAME) to estimate dietary ...

Restoring Lateral Connectivity to Anthropogenic Riverscapes: Six Lessons From Stage Zero

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Centuries of river modification, particularly straightening and incision, have severely reduced lateral connectivity between rivers and their floodplains. As a result, Stage 0 riverscapes, characterised by high lateral connectivity (e.g., anastomosing or wetland riverscapes), are now rare in anthropogenic landscapes.

Experience of spiny dogfish Squalus acanthias interactions with aquaculture installations in Norway

Frontiers in Aquaculture
The spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias) is a common shark species found along the Norwegian coast. This coast is also utilized for salmon farming, and farmers report incidents of spiny dogfish biting through nets and often entering the fish cages.

Sentipensar [Feel‐Thinking] Cultivates Collective Scientific Sensemaking and Worldbuilding Within and Beyond Ecological Despair

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Educating youth about environmental and climate justice is crucial in realizing a sustainable and flourishing future. Yet this can be challenging given the intense eco‐emotions youth experience and express while learning about these consequential realities and their implications.

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

Living Through a Changing Climate: Stress, Trauma, and Gendered Resilience Among Women in Coastal and Northern Ghana

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is reshaping everyday life in Ghana through coastal erosion, flooding, erratic rainfall, water scarcity, extreme heat, and agricultural insecurity. This study examines how these changes produce stress, trauma, and gendered resilience among women in Salakope and Choggu Yapalsi, two climate‐vulnerable communities in coastal and ...
