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 ...

Tree species identity shapes the relationship between canopy cover and herb‐layer species in temperate forests

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 3, Page 582-597, March 2025.
This study is an empirical demonstration of the importance of tree species identity cover in shaping the distribution of the herb layer, surpassing the effects of tree diversity alone. By considering the significance of tree species identity cover, we can inform forest management and conservation measures, improve spatial prediction of herb‐layer ...

The local impacts of climate change in the Ferlo, Western Sahel

open access: yes, 2009
Recent increases in the accuracy of climate models have enhanced the possibilities for analyzing the impacts of climate change on society. This paper explores how the local, economic impacts of climate change can be modeled for a specific eco-region, the

Towards a global understanding of tree mortality

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 245, Issue 6, Page 2377-2392, March 2025.
Summary Rates of tree mortality are increasing globally, with implications for forests and climate. Yet, how and why these trends vary globally remain unknown. Developing a comprehensive assessment of global tree mortality will require systematically integrating data from ground‐based long‐term forest monitoring with large‐scale remote sensing.

Invasion Dynamics of the Alien Amphibian Xenopus laevis in France: Perspectives for Management

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 11, November 2024.
ABSTRACT Background Invasive alien species (IAS) are recognised as pervasive drivers of global environmental change and pose significant threats to socio‐ecosystems worldwide. Although much attention is focused on prevalent IAS, the oversight of species that are still contained and approaching critical invasion thresholds raises concern.

Dominance and rarity in tree communities across the globe: Patterns, predictors and threats

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Aim Ecological and anthropogenic factors shift the abundances of dominant and rare tree species within local forest communities, thus affecting species composition and ecosystem functioning. To inform forest and conservation management it is important to understand the drivers of dominance and rarity in local tree communities.

Sacred offerings and secular foods on Reao Atoll, Tuamotu Archipelago, East Polynesia

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, Volume 59, Issue 1, Page 29-67, April 2024.
ABSTRACT In 1976, Yosihiko H. Sinoto conducted extensive archaeological survey and excavations on Reao Atoll, Tuamotu Archipelago as part of a Japanese, multi‐disciplinary expedition led by Prof. Sachiko Hatanaka. Primarily excavating three marae and four habitation sites totalling ∼180 m2, more than 25000 vertebrate remains were recovered.

Study of the long term changes in forest vegetation on the basis of NFI data

open access: yes, 2001
La végétation herbacée est un bon indicateur des conditions environnementales (fertilité des sols, alimentation hydrique et microclimat). L'étude de sa dynamique à long terme permet donc de suivre l'évolution de plusieurs paramètres clés de l'écosystème ...
