Steep declines of colonial wading birds in northeastern North America's largest breeding population
This study analyzed 22 years of complete nest census data for colonial wading birds in New York–New Jersey Harbor, the largest breeding population in the northeastern United States. Over this period, the total wading bird population decreased by 27%, a rate exceeding average long‐term declines across North American birds.

Factors affecting early plant survival in restoration of Mediterranean‐type climate shrublands
We undertook post‐fire restoration in southern California's shrubland with some portion of plants receiving supplemental irrigation. After 2.5 years survival was higher in California sage scrub (CSS) versus chaparral species and only slightly higher in irrigated individuals.

PEG400 regulates Falcipain 2 activity through an allosteric mechanism
Falcipain‐2 can potentially be leveraged as a drug target due to its critical role as a haemoglobinase during the intra‐erythrocytic stage of Plasmodium falciparum. Here, we investigate the regulation of the proteolytic and haemoglobinase activity of falcipain‐2 in the presence of polyethylene glycol.

Sex‐Specific Atlantic Salmon Upstream Passage and Fallback at a Natural Cascade After Dam Removal
ABSTRACT In the Boquet River (NY, USA) a low‐head dam set above a ~200‐m bedrock cascade was removed in 2015. We used radio‐telemetry to assess landlocked Atlantic salmon passage at the remaining cascade (2020, 2022). Across years, 52% of males (13/25) attempted cascade passage whereas females made no discernable attempts (0/11).
