Bringing social cohesion into forest landscape restoration: Identifying future pathways toward more integrated social‐ecological restoration

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Forest Landscape Restoration (FLR) is increasingly recognized as a key strategy to address land degradation, biodiversity loss and climate change. However, its long‐term success depends not only on ecological outcomes but also on social processes that shape restoration implementation and sustainability.

Artemia salina Toxicity Assay: Standardization in a 24‐Well Microplate

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bioassays with Artemia sp. are widely used in aquatic, environmental, and human toxicology as an initial tool to investigate the toxicity of plant extracts, isolated compounds, drugs, and products of natural or synthetic origin. These assays allow for the estimation of the median lethal concentration (LC50) and guide subsequent studies in ...

Estimating crippling loss from hunting with multistate models: a case study on northern bobwhites

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Hunting as a recreational pursuit provides an important ecosystem service worldwide. Harvest management plays a vital role in regulating wildlife take to ensure long‐term population sustainability and meet value‐based objectives (e.g. hunter satisfaction). However, managers rarely have complete control or observability of harvest mortality.

REVIEW: Endemic plants of serpentine soils

open access: yesBiodiversitas Journal of Biological Diversity, 2007
Plant adaptation to serpentine soils is a system ideal for studies in evolutionary ecology. Serpentine soils are characterized by low calcium to magnesium ratios with Ca at significantly lower concentrations relative to surrounding areas. Although some variation occurs between sites which identified three collective traits: poor plant productivity ...

From landscapes to lesions: Pathology's role in wildlife mortality investigations and conservation health

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Wildlife mortality investigations are important toward understanding health threats to wildlife and management considerations. The who, what, why and how are critical pieces of these investigations. Wildlife pathologists play a central role in this process in elucidating causes and contributors to mortality. Abstract To effectively recognize and manage
