Modeling localized deer removal strategies for managing chronic wasting disease

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We used an agent‐based model developed for chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Midwestern white‐tailed deer to assess localized deer removal strategies and how local conditions affect management outcomes. Parcel‐based and ring culling were most effective at reducing CWD prevalence and persistence, and transmission was always greater at greater deer ...

Combating Farmland Degradation and Abandonment: The Rehabilitative Role of High‐Standard Farmland Construction in China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmland abandonment, driven by rapid urbanization and rural labor migration, has become a major catalyst for land degradation and threatens agricultural sustainability in China. While the High‐Standard Farmland Construction (HSFC) program was initiated to rehabilitate degraded soils and upgrade agricultural infrastructure, empirical evidence ...

Multi‐Scale Pathways to Integrated Protection and Restoration of Mountains, Rivers, Forests, Farmlands, Lakes, and Grasslands in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area: A Social‐Ecological Systems Perspective

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human activities have intensified eco‐environmental problems, challenging harmonious human‐nature interactions. However, existing integrated protection and restoration (IPR) zoning approaches for mountains, rivers, forests, farmlands, lakes, and grasslands (MRFFLG) focus on a single scale and fail to incorporate the ecological network (EN) and

Integrating Environmental Perceptions and Value Cognition to Understand Farmers' Livelihood Capacity: Evidence From a Rocky Desertification Area in China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rocky desertification poses a serious threat to the sustainable development of karst regions. Large‐scale ecological restoration projects for ecologically fragile areas not only improve regional ecological quality but also affect farmers' perception of rocky desertification control (PRDC) and value cognition.

Effects of preservatives and poisons on the elemental and isotopic composition of freshwater particulate organic matter

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Sediment traps, often used in tandem with preservatives or poisons, are widely used for the collection of particulate organic matter (POM), providing insight into the source to sink mechanisms that shape major biogeochemical cycles and sedimentary carbon sequestration.

Sustainable Metal Recovery From E‐Waste: Exploring Greener Leachates in Hydrometallurgical Processes

MetalMat, EarlyView.
Recycling of electronic waste to synthesize valuable metals using green leachate. ABSTRACT The accumulation of electronic waste (e‐waste) poses environmental hazards and leads to the loss of valuable metals such as gold, silver, copper, and rare earth elements.
