Birch tar oil is an effective mollusc repellent: field and laboratory experiments using Arianta arbustorum (Gastropoda: Helicidae) and Arion lusitanicus (Gastropoda: Arionidae)

Agricultural and Food Science, 2008
Populations of two molluscs, the land snail Arianta arbustorum and the Iberian slug Arion lusitanicus, have increased substantially in many places in the northern Fennoscandia in recent years.

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 9, 5 May 2026.
Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination systems.

Fly or Dry? River Flow and Dispersal Mode Drive Cross‐Channel β Diversity in Riparian Zones

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Terrestrial arthropods play a key role in riparian ecosystems, but it remains unclear whether drying stream channels act as barriers shaping communities on opposite banks. By sampling a family of largely ground‐dwelling arthropods along a gradient of flow permanence during a flow recession, we found that communities on parallel banks were generally ...

Comparing non‐staining methods with Mutvei's solution to visualize growth increments in short‐lived intertidal marine gastropod shells

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Mutvei's solution is a widely utilized standard staining method for revealing growth increments in biogenic carbonates; however, it is a slightly toxic, destructive approach with varying success across species groups. Therefore, there has been growing interest in finding non‐toxic, less destructive, and straightforward alternative techniques ...

The nearly complete mitochondrial genome of the door snail Euphaedusa aculus (Stylommatophora: Clausiliidae) and phylogenetic analysis

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
The family Clausiliidae was proposed as a model for studying the diversity of breeding biology in land snails. This study assembled a nearly complete mitogenome (15,417 bp) for the clausiliid snail Euphaedusa aculus.

Taking Pride in Vegan Consumption: A Construal Level Theory Account of Ad Message Appeal and Future Self Connectedness

Psychology &Marketing, Volume 43, Issue 5, Page 1182-1207, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite growing interest in vegan products, research examining the motivations, underlying psychological processes, and boundary conditions that drive consumer preference for vegan products remains limited. Drawing on theories of temporal self and appraisal theory, we find that an immediate message appeal (e.g., animal welfare), as compared to
