Military marking round injury to the globe
Journal of Emergencies, Trauma and Shock, 2022 Marking cartridges are an increasingly popular form of nonlethal training munitions used primarily for military live-fire simulations. We report a case of ocular trauma due to such a projectile, resulting in the complete loss of vision and placement of a

Plasmodium strain determines dendritic cell function essential for survival from malaria. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2007 The severity of malaria can range from asymptomatic to lethal infections involving severe anaemia and cerebral disease. However, the molecular and cellular factors responsible for these differences in disease severity are poorly understood.

Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Testing Fladry as a Nonlethal Management Tool for Wolves and Coyotes in Michigan
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Several forms of nonlethal management exist, but fi eld testing is problematic, and few such techniques have been tested on free-ranging wolves (Canis lupus) or other predators.

Cost Effectiveness of Livestock Guardian Dogs for Predator Control
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2020 Predation threatens the economic viability of sheep operations in the United States. Many producers recognize the need to complement lethal control methods with nonlethal strategies such as the use of livestock guardian dogs (LGDs), but little ...

Mind the gap: Experimental tests to improve efficacy of fladry for nonlethal management of coyotes
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2019 Coyotes (Canis latrans) are the top predator of livestock in the contiguous United States. Developing more effective nonlethal tools to prevent coyote depredation will facilitate coexistence between livestock producers and coyotes.
