Effect of carcass storage condition on searcher efficiency trials for conservation detection dogs

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We investigated the influence of storage condition on bat carcass odor through chemical analysis. Additionally, we tested the detectability of 3 carcass storage conditions through searcher efficiency trials with conservation detection dogs. Only 20% of the chemicals observed were shared across all 4 carcass storage conditions.

Electrochemical Monitoring of Steel Corrosion in NS4 Solution Under Cathodic Protection Environment: Insights of Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) monitored corrosion on mild steel under cathodic protection in soil‐like conditions. CP reduced corrosion from 410 to 7 µm/yr, shifting the mechanism from mixed activation–diffusion to activation‐controlled, enabling protective calcareous and oxide film formation.
