Ungulate prey availability to inform Mexican wolf recovery within its historical range
We estimated the potential ecological carrying capacity for the Mexican wolf based exclusively on ungulate prey biomass estimated from camera trap surveys. In the United States, the potential density estimate is high (21.4–52.7 wolves/1,000 km2) owing to the presence and relatively high densities of elk, mule deer, and white‐tailed deer.

Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

Forest bird diversity increases with fragmentation per se in landscapes following forest gains
Our results suggest that, at least for forest breeding birds, the benefits of habitat restoration to increase total forest area could be enhanced by distributing a given amount of restored habitat across multiple patches. Our study also highlights the overarching importance of habitat amount for biodiversity conservation. Taken together, these findings

Grape seeds are a valuable agroindustrial by‐product, and optimizing oil extraction from them represents an effective approach for both waste valorization and production of high‐quality edible oil. This study investigated the influence of ultrasonic pretreatment duration (0–60 min), microwave exposure time (0–120 s), and screw press speed (11–57 rpm ...
