Lack of capture‐induced mortality of neonates associated with variation in handling protocols

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We found that handling metrics (e.g., handling time, number of collectors, and age at capture) had limited or no influence on the survival of neonatal mule deer, desert bighorn sheep, and Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep within the first few days of life. Furthermore, we found that handled mule deer and Rocky Mountain bighorn neonates were recruited at a ...

Soil and microbial responses to wild ungulate trampling depend more on ecosystem type than trampling severity

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Physical trampling is a ubiquitous activity of walking vertebrates, but is poorly understood as a mechanism impacting biogeochemical cycling in soil. Lack of detailed knowledge of soil abiotic–biotic interactions underlying trampling effects, and the primary sources of ...

Detecting of Gunshots Direction Using TDOA (Time Difference of Arrival)

Emitor: Jurnal Teknik Elektro
In order to avoid shots being fired in undesirable areas, a device is required that can detect the origin of the shot so that the source of the bullet can be identified. This research was conducted to maintain the security and stability of a region.

Dwelling in a post‐fallout landscape: re‐shaping and sustaining life in a former evacuation zone in Fukushima Habiter après la catastrophe : redonner forme au monde et entretenir la vie dans une ancienne zone évacuée à Fukushima

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.

Ordinal Numerals as a Criterion for Subclassification: The Case of Semitic

Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores how ordinal numerals (like first, second and third) can help classify languages, focusing on the Semitic language family. Ordinals are often formed according to productive derivational processes, but as a separate word class, they may retain archaic morphology that is otherwise lost from the language.

Specific gas permeability of normal and nanosilver-impregnated solid wood species as influenced by heat-treatment

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2019
The effect of heat treatment at 50 and up to 150°C was studied on dowel-shape specimens prepared from beech (Fagus orientalis), poplar (Populus nigra), and fir (Abies alba) wood.

Where's the beef? The feminisation of weight‐loss dieting in Britain and Scandinavia c.1890–1925

Gender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract Representations of the slim body have traditionally been at the centre of scholarly interest in dieting culture, whereas food often remains a shadowy presence compared with more persistent themes of body discipline, slenderness and anti‐fat messages.

Can Wapiti (Cervus elaphus) Browsing Stimulate the Chemical Defense of Taxus cuspidata—A Case of Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We study that browsing by wapiti reduces the growth of saplings, and it develop chemical defenses to prevent themselves browsed again. These results reduce our concern about wapiti browse T. cuspidate saplings, and provide basic data for the study of the interaction between them, and also provide theoretical basis for the population restoration and ...

The confinedness of undergrowth Picea obovata and Abies sibirica (Pinaceae) to tree-related microhabitats and their development features at various phases of post-fire succession in green-moss dark coniferous forests in the Northern Pre-Urals

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука
Forest ecology frequently explores the role of microsite mosaics in forest communities for the regeneration of forest-forming tree species. The present study aims to find out whether the ontogenetic structure and differentiation of Siberian spruce (Picea
