A novel seismic connector for precast concrete shear walls

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract A critical aspect of the seismic performance of precast concrete walls is the deformation capacity of their connections, which can be limited by premature bar fracture, reinforcement buckling, or cyclic instability. This paper introduces and experimentally validates a new ultra‐ductile connector (UltraDC) that provides reliable force transfer ...

The effects of moose and pine density on browsing damage in Swedish pine forests

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Moose Alces alces is a culturally and economically important game species in Sweden, but their browsing on regenerating Scots pine trees Pinus sylvestris often causes extensive damage to the production and quality of timber. Forest and wildlife managers are faced with the dilemma of how to reduce damage to timber trees while also supporting moose ...

Hunting as anthropogenic sink of biomass or source of carrion? A brief case study based on German hunting bags

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Dead biomass is a crucial nutrient source for ecosystems. Although hunting residues can subsidize numerous scavenging organisms and are known to drive important zoogeochemical processes at very different scales in the ecosystem, this has received little attention.

Habitat selection of moose in Sweden in managed boreal forests with Pinus contorta and P. sylvestris

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Human land use can take advantage of using exotic species to increase financial benefits. However, the use of exotic tree species might affect ecosystem functioning, potentially including the habitat use and movement behaviour of animals, modifying their ecological impact, and interactions with human land use.

Life‐history stages and behavior influence demographic classification of moose captured on remote cameras

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Obtaining accurate information on demographic states, such as the age and sex classes of animals, is an important step for monitoring wildlife populations. Traditionally, demographic data are collected from harvest, aerial surveys and telemetry studies.
