Contribution of microcosm experiments to conservation science

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microcosms, or miniature experimental systems, have been used to develop models and theories in ecology. However, their contribution to conservation science is unclear. We explored the application, design, and impact of microcosms in conservation science from 469 systematically identified articles published from 1986 to 2023.

Distribution, scale, and drivers of mass mortality events in Europe's freshwater bivalves

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Mass mortality events (MMEs) are decimating populations and compromising key ecosystem functions around the globe. One taxon particularly vulnerable to MMEs is freshwater bivalve mollusks. This group has important ecosystem engineering capacities and includes highly threatened and highly invasive taxa.

Sustainable dyeing of silk with curled dock (Rumex crispus) extract for trace element removal, ultraviolet protection, antimicrobial and anti‐oxidant activity

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the dyeability and functionality of silk dyed with curled dock leaf extract. The effects of sugar content and turbidity in the extracted dye solution on dyeing were analysed, along with K/S values and colour fastness, under varying temperatures and times.

No escape from microplastics: Contamination of reef manta ray feeding areas in a remote, protected archipelago

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We found microplastic contamination of the upper water column around the Chagos Archipelago, a remote, protected archipelago in the central Indian Ocean. Key aggregation areas for reef manta rays (Mobula alfredi) were contaminated, putting them at risk of microplastic ingestion.
