Abstract The tempo and mode of assembly of the world's most diverse, tropical floras remain poorly known. Evolutionary relationships within pantropical plant clades such as Connaraceae (Oxalidales, ca. 220 species) offer an opportunity to address this issue.

Understanding the human dimensions of wildfire risk at a community level in British Columbia, Canada
Abstract Recent spikes in the number of large and catastrophic wildfires in Canada pose significant risks to the environment and society. Rural and remote communities are especially at risk due to their location in wildfire‐prone areas, remoteness, and limited access or escape routes.

Abstract Classical relationships between cumulative and maximum seismic moment, based on the Gutenberg‐Richter law, shows a non‐physical anomaly for low b‐values. We here derive new relationships, including a low and a high b‐value approximation.

L’impact de la COVID‐19 sur l’expérience client en magasin
ABSTRACT Customer experience, a key concept in marketing, consists of five dimensions (sensory, emotional, cognitive, behavioural and social) that can allow consumers to have a unique and pleasant experience. However, the COVID‐19 pandemic has significantly altered these dimensions and thus transformed the consumer's in‐store experience.

Integrating landscape ecology into generic surveillance plans for bark‐ and wood‐boring beetles
Abstract International trade poses a growing threat to global biosecurity, with bark‐ and wood‐boring beetles representing a major concern for forest health. Non‐native species are frequently introduced at points of entry, where populations can establish in the surrounding landscape.

Spruce budworm epidemic induces tree mortality and modifies understory communities. Could aerial spraying of Btk reduce perturbations in understory communities? Biannual Btk spraying could prevent both wood loss and understory degradation. ABSTRACT Since 1985, more than 10 million hectares of Canadian forests have been treated against spruce budworm ...

Monitoring Brown Bears in Kazakhstan: A Pilot Study from the Altai Mountain Region
Here, we present results from the first camera trapping operation designed to detect brown bears in the Altai Mountain Region of Kazahstan and highlight some lessons learned from the pilot study. Our study was conducted at a relatively local scale but represents a first step towards understanding the presence of brown bears and other mammals in a ...
