Functional traits explain both seedling and adult plant spatial patterns in gypsum annual species
Functional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 1170-1180, May 2023., 2023 Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecological processes such as seed dispersal or plant–plant interactions and environmental constraints such as climate or soil heterogeneity are known to influence establishment, and thus the spatial patterns of plant communities and populations.

Climate and crown damage drive tree mortality in southern Amazonian edge forests
Journal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 4, Page 876-888, April 2022., 2022 Tree death is a key process for our understanding of how forests are responding to global change. Our long‐term research shows that more than 70% of all trees dying in this critical region at the edge of Amazonia already had markedly broken and damaged crowns years before they died.

Automated conservation assessment of the orchid family with deep learning
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 897-908, June 2021., 2021 Abstract International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List assessments are essential for prioritizing conservation needs but are resource intensive and therefore available only for a fraction of global species richness. Automated conservation assessments based on digitally available geographic occurrence records can be a rapid alternative,

Effect of oxygen‐producing suture material on hypoxic colonic anastomoses in an experimental model
BJS Open, Volume 3, Issue 6, Page 872-881, December 2019., 2019 Anastomotic leak remains a significant problem after colorectal surgery, and administration of supplemental perioperative oxygen has been shown to improve healing of colorectal anastomoses. The manufacture of an oxygen‐producing suture material is described; experiments showed that it improved some aspects of the healing of bowel anastomoses.

Detecting deterrence from patrol data
Conservation Biology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 665-675, June 2019., 2019 Abstract The threat posed to protected areas by the illegal killing of wildlife is countered principally by ranger patrols that aim to detect and deter potential offenders. Deterring poaching is a fundamental conservation objective, but its achievement is difficult to identify, especially when the prime source of information comes in the form of the ...

How Food Geometry and Toughness Influence Ingestive Patterns in Lemurs
American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 7, July 2026.Initial bite placement is influenced by food toughness and geometry. Species‐specific feeding strategies reflect differences in masticatory morphology and functional flexibility. Lemur catta is more likely to use the postcanine tooth row; Propithecus verreauxi prefers anterior biting. ABSTRACT We investigate the extent to which food toughness, geometry,

Journal of Critical Infrastructure Policy, Volume 7, Issue 1, Spring/Summer 2026.ABSTRACT Regulated asset base (RAB) and results‐based financing (RBF) are key emerging infrastructure finance models, offering stable returns (RAB) and outcome‐based incentives (RBF). This perspective proposes a hybrid RAB‐RBF model to bridge the “viability gap” in developing regions and catalyze low‐carbon energy infrastructure access where cost ...

Wound chronicity and fibroblast senescence – implications for treatment
International Wound Journal, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 336-339, December 2005., 2005 Chronicite de la plaie et senescence fibroblastique_implications therapeutiques Une certaine proportion de plaies chroniques ne cicatrise pas après un traitement standard. Pour les ulcers veineux une corrélatione xiste entre un début de traitement tardif et une mauvaise réponse cicatritielle au traitement par compression.
