Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

ABSTRACT Hematologic assessment is a common clinical tool used to characterize both individual and population health. In ectothermic organisms, the hematologic response is influenced by external factors such as temperature and season, especially in temperate species. Yet, specific environmental effects have received little direct attention.

Unique characteristics of winter daily minimum (Tmin) and maximum (Tmax) temperatures and freeze days across the conterminous United States from 1952 to 2024 are examined. Results show spatial heterogeneity in Tmin/Tmax warming rates across the tropical‐temperate transition zone in the southeastern United States, and that the highest temperature on the

Abstract BACKGROUND Spring or rain‐fed ponds are frequent features on US mid‐Atlantic farms. The need to conduct preharvest agricultural water assessments to identify microbial hazards, as required by the US Produce Safety Rule, highlights knowledge gaps pertaining to pond water adequacy for vegetable production.

Urbanization and food transition in the Brazilian Amazon: From wild to domesticated meat
Abstract Urbanization is expected to influence food transitions, resulting in a shift from wild foods to more domesticated foods. Concomitantly, food insecurity and urban demand for natural resources, including wildlife, are expected to increase overall, even when the per capita consumption is expected to decrease.

Abstract The town of Gamba in southwest Gabon represents an exceptional example of how the development of an extractive industry (in this case oil production) may impact wild meat consumption in an area of global importance for biodiversity. Studies in the 1990s identified an active wild meat trade; however, no studies have been undertaken since, and ...

Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery
Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.
