ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Effects of short-term exposure of simulated acid rain on the growth of Acacia nilotica
The response and measurable effects of simulated acid rain at different pH levels of 3.5, 4.5, 5.5, 6.5 and 7.0 on Acacia nilotica seedlings grown on black and red soils were investigated for six months. A set of 10 potted seedlings in each treatment was

Experimental layout comparing 3 survey methods (tree‐mounted cameras, enclosed camera traps, and a detection dog) and 2 scent lures (rabbit urine and weasel gland paste) for detecting eastern spotted skunks (Spilogale putorius) in Florida, USA. All survey methods yielded low but similar detection probabilities.

ABSTRACT This study assesses how weather‐year‐dependent sheep and crop management tactics affect farm profitability and farm system greenhouse gas emissions in the central Great Southern region in Australia. To investigate the impact of farmers' tactical decisions on farm profit and emissions, a whole farm optimisation model known as the Australian ...

Extreme Silk Toughness in Caerostris Spiders Is Limited to Adult Females
We ask whether species with exceptionally tough silk, like Caerostris bark spiders, show different developmental patterns in silk toughness between ontogenetic stages and sexes. We found that only large females produce exceptionally tough silk with higher initial stiffness, while juvenile females as well as adult and juvenile males produce inferior ...
