Predicting long‐term population viability for an imperiled salamander under future climate changes

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We evaluated the long‐term viability of 2 reticulated flatwoods salamander (Ambystoma bishopi) populations in response to multiple future climate change scenarios. We found that there is a high probability of extinction by 2100 under some scenarios, mostly driven by severe droughts and repeated reproductive failure. Conservation actions should focus on

Sanitary Logging in the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve: One Problem, One Legislation but Different Criteria and Different Treatments

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bark beetles are small insects that inhabit the bark of trees. When their population increases excessively, they can weaken the trees and cause their death. In México, federal regulations obligate forest landowners to carry out sanitary logging to control bark beetle outbreaks in adherence to official procedures.

Moderate Fire Temperatures Affect the Structure of Clayey Oxisol Aggregates

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wildfires have become increasingly frequent and intense worldwide, raising concerns about their impacts on soil systems. However, the thermal responses of clay‐rich Oxisols, dominated by Fe and Al oxides, remain poorly understood. In this study, samples from the 0 to 5 cm layer of six Oxisols were subjected to controlled heating at ...

Recent Developments in Sustainable Composites for Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs): A Review

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review presents the potential of using natural plant fibers and biodegradable polymers as sustainable printed circuit boards (PCBs). This review provides future directions in innovation and sustainable PCBs development. Bio‐composites PCBs are both environmentally friendly and sustainable due to the natural fibres they contain.
