Preparation of Medicare‐Enrolled Mental Health Counselors: Descriptions of Training Experiences and Predictors of Attitudes and Competencies

open access: yesCounselor Education and Supervision, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Counselors are newly eligible to enroll as providers in the Medicare program as of January 1, 2024, yet little is known about their preparedness to work with Medicare beneficiaries and related training experiences. This gap in the literature inhibits our understanding of historical and current counselor education practice, thereby preventing ...

Decoupling of microbial diversity and ecosystem function driven by metal ions and nutrient shifts across dry-wet seasons in a temperate river basin

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Microbial communities are key drivers of biogeochemical cycles and water-quality regulation in freshwater ecosystems. However, how these communities respond to climatic and environmental changes at the watershed scale across dry and wet seasons remains ...

Relationships among protozoa, bacteria and fungi in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-contaminated soils

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Soil bacterial and fungal communities play key roles in the degradation of organic contaminants, and their structure and function are regulated by bottom-up and top-down factors. Microbial ecological effects of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and

Vegetation on the move: elevational shifts and greening dynamics across the Himalayan alpine zone

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
This study investigates alpine ‘vegetation line' (the upper limit of continuous plant community) dynamics in the Himalayan alpine zone (HAZ) over a 24‐year timescale (1999–2022) using maximum NDVI products derived from Landsat series datasets, adjusted for sampling bias using phenological modelling.

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To
