Red-Cockaded Woodpecker Nesting Success, Forest Structure, and Southern Flying Squirrels in Texas [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
For several decades general opinion has suggested that southern flying squirrels (Gluucomys volans) have a negative effect on Red-cockaded Woodpeckers (Picoides borealis) through competition for cavities and egg/nestling predation.

The Feasibility of a Chair Yoga Intervention to Improve Mental Health and Wellbeing for Adults With Learning Disabilities: A Pilot Study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Learning Disabilities, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Yoga has been shown to have physical benefits for people with learning disabilities. It is unclear whether the mental health and wellbeing benefits of yoga found in other populations are apparent in people with learning disabilities. This study was a pilot. Method The study comprised three stages.

Experimental and Numerical Research on the Splitting Capacity of European Beech Beams Loaded Perpendicular to the Grain by Connections: Influence of Different Geometrical Parameters

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In the present work, single- and double-dowel joints following different geometric configurations are experimentally and numerically investigated to derive the splitting behaviour of beech wood (Fagus sylvatica L.), one of the most widespread hardwood ...

Comprehensive framework for assessing and optimizing existing research networks

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Conservation, monitoring, and research networks, or collections of ecological research sites unified under a common mission of data collection or a research mission, are essential infrastructure for understanding large landscapes. However, most networks developed opportunistically over decades rather than through systematic design, creating ...

Portable Smoking Ovens: What Are the PAH Levels in Grilled and Smoked Rainbow Trout?

open access: yesFishes
Fish smoking is one of the oldest preservation methods and has traditional forms in most parts of the world, each with distinct variables. The presence of PAHs in smoked fish is of great concern for producers and consumers alike, as PAHs have great ...

Competitive interactions modify the direct effects of climate

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
As the climate is changing, species respond by changing their distributions and abundances. The effects of climate are not only direct, but also occur via changes in biotic interactions, such as competition. Yet, the role of competition in mediating the effects of climate is still largely unclear.

Predation on Artificial Caterpillars Varies With Vertical Stratification but Not Light Gradients in a Sugar Maple Temperate Forest

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Predation pressure varies vertically, with highest arthropod predation in the understory and highest bird predation in the canopy. Light availability differs across vertical strata, but predation patterns are more strongly influenced by height and forest structure than by light gradients.

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...
