EC00-1564 A Guide To Identifying Nebraska Bumble Bee Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
For more people, pollen means allergies and bees mean stings. However, you should thank a bee, butterfly, bat, bird, or other pollinator for one out of every three bites of food you eat.

Method‐dependent differences in zooplankton abundance and size metrics: Microscopy vs. ZooScan

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Image‐based approaches such as ZooScan are increasingly used for high‐throughput zooplankton monitoring. However, quantitative evaluations of methodological differences relative to conventional microscopy remain limited. In this study, zooplankton abundance and size‐based metrics obtained from microscopy and ZooScan image analysis were ...

Let's Talk About Bone Cylinders. Taphonomy of Carnivores and Humans

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTBone cylinders are a distinctive structure predominantly produced by durophagous carnivoran species during the consumption of long bones, in which the diaphyseal canal remains intact while both epiphyses are removed or consumed. This study evaluates the significance of this morphology, traditionally attributed to extant and extinct hyena ...

Exploring more‐than‐human ethics and the digital dimensions of nature recovery through an interactive fiction game

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract This perspective piece considers how a more‐than‐human approach to ethics can foster nuanced, critical understandings of the digital dimensions of nature recovery. A more‐than‐human approach expands on who or what is included as ethical actors while focusing on the interconnectedness of human and nonhuman experiences.

Seeing both heritage and resource: A relational approach to forest owners' decision‐making

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The loss of forest habitats calls for a change in the intensity and scale at which forests are managed. With voluntary policies on the rise, there is greater focus on understanding the motivations of private forest owners. While private forest management is likely driven by both economic and non‐economic factors, previous literature has paid ...

Human fatalities caused by venomous animals in Utah, 1900–90

open access: yes, 1993
An examination of death certificates at the Utah Bureau of Health Statistics from 1900 through 1990 indicates that Utah has a very low incidence of human fatalities due to venomous bites and stings. During this 91-year period, 20 fatalities were recorded

Thermodynamics and Entropy Loss in Nanoconfined Chain Polymerization

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The difference in the entropy change on propagation in nanoconfined and bulk free‐radical polymerizations is 1–2 orders of magnitude larger than the conformational entropy lost in confined SAW simulations. The experimental confinement entropy is also super‐extensive in chain length scaling, suggesting that the difference between experiments and ...

Transcriptomic resources and functional validation of RNAi in the cabbage seedpod weevil, Ceutorhynchus obstrictus

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Transcriptome sequencing of Ceutorhynchus obstrictus revealed RNA interference (RNAi) targets; double‐stranded RNA microinjection reduced transcript levels and increased mortality, with αCOP and Rop showing strongest lethal effects, indicating promising RNAi‐based pest control candidates.

Laboratory, simulated‐use, and field evaluation of non‐insecticidal consumer products for indoor pest management: a freeze‐spray aerosol, light traps, and an ‘insect repellent’ lamp

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Control efficacy of three types of non‐insecticidal consumer products were examined in laboratory, simulated‐use, and field conditions. Freeze spray and ‘repellent lamp’ showed limited efficacy, whereas various results in attraction in light trap were reported.
