The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We studied the effects of urban growth on wildlife near Parque Nacional Marino las Baulas, Costa Rica. Since 1991, buildings increased 1007%, mainly in the buffer zone. We identified eight native species extracting garbage from containers, with raccoons (Procyon lotor) comprising most detections (84%), and four other species being potential sea turtle ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the restoration of herbaceous biomass in degraded mountain lands by comparing the impact of trenches established alongside exclosures (EX‐SWC) to exclosures alone (EX). To achieve the objective, herbaceous biomass was collected from areas restored using EX‐SWC and EX over three consecutive years ...

Spatiotemporal Fire Patterns and Post‐fire Forest Change in Peru (2000–2021)
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fire is increasingly more frequent and severe in many tropical regions, leading to significant forest loss, diminished biodiversity, and reduced Nature's contributions to people (NCPs). In this study, we analyzed the spatiotemporal patterns of fire in Peru and its regions, focusing on: (1) burned area, (2) size, and (3) number of fires, using ...

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Photosynthetic pigment fluorescence is commonly used in limnology and oceanography as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass. Fluorometry has been used to detect subsurface algal blooms, characterize dynamics of the deep chlorophyll layer, and to provide greater vertical resolution to phytoplankton monitoring.

Tumor Cell Migration May Be an Inherent “Foraging” Behavior
Medicine Advances, EarlyView.Tumor cells gradually form pseudopodia, migrate to necrotic cells, make contact with them, and absorb necrotic cell debris. During this migration, small vesicles formed by dying tumor cells also gradually migrate toward living tumor cells. Once the nutrients from the necrotic cells have been completely absorbed, the living tumor cells will leave ...

Generalist‐pollinated Arabis alpina exhibits floral scent variation at multiple scales
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Plants that depend on animals for reproduction often use complex floral traits to attract pollinators. Floral scent is recognized as part of the pollinator attraction module and can be shaped by plant‐pollinator interactions. In recent decades, research has started to reveal the dynamic properties of floral scent, identifying patterns of spatial and ...
