The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Social Interactions among San Joaquin Kit Foxes Before, During, and After the Mating Season [PDF]

Journal of Mammalogy, 2008
Direct observations of small foxes are rare because of their secretive nature and nocturnal activity patterns. We observed 10 adult ( 1-year-old) San Joaquin kit foxes (Vulpes macrotis mutica) at night over a 7-month period that included the mating season to quantify the types, rates, and durations of social interactions.

Four years after whole orchard recycling: Effects on soil ecosystem services in a young almond orchard

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract In California, assessing the potential ecosystem services provided by soil amended with large quantities of recycled woodchips is essential information for farm biomass management. In this study, we evaluated the impacts of whole orchard recycling (WOR) on soil ecosystem services in a 4‐year‐old replanted almond orchard during the 2023 and ...

The landscape of dementia research, diagnosis, treatment, and care in Latin America

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Latin America is undergoing rapid population aging alongside a rising burden of dementia. While the region holds substantial potential for dementia risk reduction, challenges remain, such as delayed diagnoses, limited access to specialized care and biomarker testing, persistent stigma, and deep‐rooted structural inequities.
