Bridging Flavour and Fragrance: A Behaviour‐Based Olfactory Pyramid for Whisky Maturation Inspired by Perfumery Principles

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
This framework transposes the perfumery olfactory pyramid to whisky maturation by sequencing aromas into top, heart, and base notes according to their temporal persistence. Using Log P as a behaviour‐based classification axis and oak macromolecules as natural fixative analogues, it proposes a behaviour‐based aromatic wheel bridging flavour chemistry ...

Simultaneous 3/4‐power scaling of leaf mass and 2/3‐power scaling of leaf area with stem mass in plants

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Plant allometry theory developed in the last century focused on 2/3‐power scaling, determined by light interception considerations. More recently, 3/4‐power scaling based on the properties of vascular distribution networks has been proposed.

Holocene vegetation change and fire–plant diversity shifts in Mediterranean France

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Changes in fire activity are recognized as a major threat to biodiversity and vegetation communities across the Mediterranean Basin. However, long‐term fire–vegetation interactions remain poorly investigated. Here, we combine a high‐resolution charcoal record with pollen data from the “Étang des Aulnes” lake (southern France) to reconstruct ...

Stable isotope analysis of freshwater gastropod carbonates from Swanscombe: Insights into climate stability and seasonality during MIS 11c

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stable isotope analyses of freshwater mollusc carbonate can record environmental conditions at the time of mineralisation, yet this technique remains underused in British Middle Pleistocene fluvial sequences, despite the abundance of fossil shell material in these deposits.

Comparative Study of Numerical Simulation on Short-Term Creep Behavior of Steam-Pretreated White Oak (Quercus alba L.) Wood

This paper investigates the effects of steam pretreatment temperature (100~120 °C), test temperature (20~80 °C), and earlywood vessel belt on parameters associated with the bending creep properties of white oak (Quercus alba L.) wood.

Living on the edge: Habitat characteristics of northern myotis at the periphery of its distribution

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Northern myotis selected tall trees with minimal decay, in patches with other roosting options. In our study area, these trees occurred in narrow bands within an agricultural matrix, differing from contiguous forest at the core of the species' distribution. Nevertheless, bats selected the tallest trees in the densest patches available.

Wood Quality of Pendulate Oak on Post-Agricultural Land: A Case Study Based on Physico-Mechanical and Anatomical Properties

Oak is one of the most economically important hardwood tree species in Europe, and its prevalence will increase due to progressing global climate change, according to predictive models.

Landscape drivers of scaled quail occurrence across a broad spatiotemporal scale: implications for habitat management

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Combining large‐scale avian surveys with remote sensing products revealed landscape variables that likely limit scaled quail occurrence at the ecoregion scale in Texas. Promoting management practices that address ecoregion‐specific limiting factors may be key to averting further declines.
