Field‐based evidence of impaired sperm quality associated with conventional farming in two passerine birds

open access: yesIbis, Volume 168, Issue 2, Page 504-519, April 2026.
The detrimental effects of conventional farming on bird biodiversity are increasingly documented. Despite this, the specific impacts of both organic and conventional farming practices on bird coloration and sperm quality in natural settings remain unexplored. This study aimed to determine whether these farming practices differentially affect body mass,

Die höchsten Oxidationsstufen der Seltenerdelemente und die Probleme mit den Praseodym(+5)‐Verbindungen

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 1, 2 January 2026.
Alle Seltenerdelemente bilden bekanntlich tri‐ und auch di‐valente Verbindungen. Wenige tetra‐valente Verbindungen sind auch bekannt; kürzlich wurden die ersten Moleküle und Kristalle mit Praseodym(+5) synthetisiert. Der hier definierte atomare Ionisations‐Quotient IQ legt nahe, dass Ln(+4)‐Verbindungen mit geeigneten Liganden für fast alle 4f‐Elemente

Le bocage, une des clés de la fonctionnalité des cours d’eau en tête de bassin versant [PDF]

open access: yesSciences, Eaux & Territoires, 2019
La ripisylve désigne les formations végétales qui se développent sur les bords des rivières. En Bretagne et Pays de la Loire, le long des petits cours d’eau en tête de bassin versant, cette ripisylve prend souvent la forme d’une haie plus ou moins large ...

Bimetallic copper-based nanowires and the means to create next-generation stable transparent electrodes

open access: yesNano Express, 2023
Metallic nanowire percolating networks are one of the promising alternatives to conventional transparent conducting electrodes. Among the conductive metals, copper appears as a relevant alternative to develop electrodes in a more sustainable and ...

Minimizing aviation lighting duration reduces bat attraction to wind turbines

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study provides empirical evidence that attraction behaviour of bats towards wind turbines is driven, at least partially, by red aviation lighting. We also demonstrate that smart lighting of wind turbines, such as the ADLS, could cost‐effectively help mitigate disruption of bat habitat use and the associated collision risks.

Managing hedgerows for biodiversity: Disentangling the effects of trimming, structure and connectivity on the use of linear features by bats

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 12, Page 3300-3313, December 2025.
Our findings underscore the value of extensive hedgerow management in promoting on‐farm bat activity and support the integration of simple hedgerow quality assessment protocols into agri‐environment schemes. Consistent with previous research, we confirm the importance of tall, tree‐filled hedgerows and emphasise the need to preserve mature trees.

Association of Air Pollution With Adiposity Rates in Active Runners and Inactive People

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Human Biology, Volume 37, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Objectives The aim of this cross‐sectional study is to investigate the association between long‐term air pollution (AP) exposure and adiposity, primarily visceral fat and secondary body fat in runners and inactive participants. Methods This study included 945 individuals (male n = 505 and female n = 440).

Opinion and report of the French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (ANSES) relating to an analysis of the health risks associated with exposure to caterpillars with stinging hairs and the development of management recommendations

open access: yesFood Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2025.
Abstract Several species of Lepidoptera with caterpillars bearing urticating hairs are increasing their range in metropolitan France from year to year, such as the pine processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa Denis et Schiffermüller 1775) whose presence was historically limited to the south of France, and which is gradually being observed in the north ...

Organic farming and semi‐natural habitats for multifunctional agriculture: A case study in hedgerow landscapes of Brittany

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 1, Page 53-63, January 2025.
Our study suggests that field‐scale organic farming is necessary to promote biodiversity conservation and associated ecological functioning in crop fields, whereas landscape‐scale preservation of semi‐natural habitats alone is likely insufficient. Preservation of hedgerows in the landscape brings additional ecological and socio‐economic benefits for ...
