A Multivariate Space‐Time Dynamic Model for Characterizing the Atmospheric Impacts Following the Mt. Pinatubo Eruption

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 36, Issue 6, September 2025.
ABSTRACT The June 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption resulted in a massive increase of sulfate aerosols in the atmosphere, absorbing radiation and leading to global changes in surface and stratospheric temperatures. A volcanic eruption of this magnitude serves as a natural analog for stratospheric aerosol injection, a proposed solar radiation modification ...

Direct comparison of herpetofaunal camera, pitfall, and funnel trapping in the upland habitats of Florida, USA

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 3, September 2025.
Herpetofaunal camera arrays versus pitfall and funnel trap arrays were tested in upland habitats of Florida, USA, and found that the methods are complementary in recording species richness and abundance; they were also similar in costs of use. Future herpetofaunal field studies should employ both cameras and live traps to best estimate populations and ...

Uncovering barriers and paths for ensuring road mitigation to reduce wildlife collisions: Establishing grounds for action

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2025.
Defining and addressing challenges is essential for effective wildlife‐vehicle collision (WVC) mitigation. Our study focuses on identifying key barriers that hinder the implementation of mitigation measures and proposes actionable paths to overcome them.

The retina of the nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus)

open access: yes, 1984
Typescript (photocopy).The retina of the nine-banded armadillo is described using light microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. In general the retina of the nine-banded armadillo is similar in structure to the retinas of other mammals.

Isolation and Characterization of a Chitinase from the Nine-Banded Armadillo, Dasypus novemcinctus

open access: yes, 1998
The insectivorous diet of the nine-banded armadillo, Dasypus novemcinctus, is abundant in the polysaccharide chitin. To determine if armadillos produce a chitinase that aids in digestion of chitinous exoskeletons, armadillos were collected, and samples ...
