Scaling from microsite to landscape to resolve litter decomposition dynamics in globally extensive drylands

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

The method of dual integral equations for analysis of heat transfer processes

Mathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2001
The paper is devoted to the study of a heat conduction equations with mixed boundary conditions on a surface of a researched solid. The method based on the Laplace and Hankel transforms is suggested for the first time to reduce such differential problems

Diagnostic validation of the 00325 Inadequate Self‐Compassion

International Journal of Nursing Knowledge, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Self‐compassion is an essential component of self‐care. Recognizing it as a nursing diagnosis can promote interventions to address Inadequate Self‐Compassion. Aim This study aims to clinically validate the new NANDA‐I diagnosis (00325) Inadequate Self‐Compassion.

Using miniaturized laboratory equipment and DNA barcoding to improve conservation genetics training and identify illegally traded species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

When and why to give shorebirds a head start

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Headstarting is a translocation technique involving the hatching or rearing of wild eggs or young in captivity and the release of those individuals back to the wild at or before independence. It has been trialed as a conservation intervention for shorebirds over recent decades to improve the population trend of target populations by increasing

In vitro culture, cryopreservation, and field reintroduction of the endangered Mingan thistle

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Current plant conservation efforts are hindered by, for example, poor seed germination, low viability, and insufficient propagation and preservation technologies. To address these problems, we devised an approach to plant conservation that integrates conservation, preservation, and restoration (CPR), which uses advanced in vitro techniques. We

Evaluating past and future contributions of conservation programs to species recovery

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Impact evaluation of conservation actions is a crucial step in global efforts to curb the biodiversity crisis. Through robust impact evaluation, practitioners can assess the effectiveness of conservation strategies and optimize the use of limited resources.
