The Response of Zigadenus fremontii to Variation in Fire Regime [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
California\u27s chaparral shrub communities are naturally exposed to dry-season fire. It could be reasoned that prescription burns set during the wet season by land managers would have more detrimental effects on plant regeneration than dry season fires

Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

Comparative Analysis of Metal Preloading Technologies in Batteries and Capacitors

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
Metal preloading strategies play an important role in efficient batteries and hybrid capacitors to compensate for the consumed metals at the first discharge. This article reviews recent progress in preloading technologies in lithium‐ion and other metal‐ion systems.

Fire-Induced Vegetation Dynamics: An In-Depth Discourse on Revealing Ecological Transformations of the Mahaban and Surrounding Forests

open access: yesFire
Since the Palaeozoic era, fire as a potent driver of environmental changes, has dramatically shaped the terrestrial ecosystems. Fire affects soil structure and composition, which in turn affects the floral diversity of an area. This research work aims to

Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Although anthropogenically‐induced ecological disruptions are fundamentally important in defining ecosystem properties, they are largely overlooked by macroecological theory. Anthropogenic disruptions and their effects are generally not comparable to one another, nor to disturbances that are part of natural disturbance regimes.

Dataset on flammability and functional traits of woody plants in a pine-oak forest of western Mexico [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Data Journal
Plant functional traits provide key information about species’ ecological strategies and their responses to environmental disturbances such as fire. This dataset documents 14 morpho-functional traits of leaves (specific leaf area, leaf water content and ...

Effects of prescribed fire on Cope’s Gray Treefrog (Hyla chrysoscelis) across habitat scales and life stages [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Fire may alter both aquatic and terrestrial habitat used by all amphibian life stages, yet, our knowledge of its effects on amphibians is primarily limited to adult responses. I present an integrated approach to test the response of Cope’s Gray Treefrog (
