Large wood (LW) plays a key role in river dynamics and biodiversity, but quantifying its volume and budget remains challenging. This study compared in situ and UAV‐based measurements of LW jams in two Gaspé Peninsula rivers (Québec, Canada), highlighting strong variability mainly due to operator bias. A new methodology reduced this variability, leading

Biodiversity can influence forest productivity, but this does not necessarily translate into higher provision of wood‐based Nature's contributions to people (NCP), as only a subset of the wood produced is used for each NCP. Biodiversity–NCP relationships therefore require further assessment.

Cellulosic microfibres were extracted from almond shells using organosolv, soda and kraft processes, and comprehensive physicochemical, surface, thermal and morphological characterisation demonstrated their strong potential as sustainable fillers for paper‐based packaging application. ABSTRACT This study develops pathways for the valorisation of almond

Thermal behaviour of hardwood and softwood composites
In the present study, the thermongravimetric analysis (TGA) of laboratory hardwood and softwood particleboard was studied. The TGA showed that both hardwood and softwood have similar thermal behaviour at the same peak temperature.

ABSTRACT In many regions there are disputes about future land use that make knowledge of spatial variation in conservation value an important input to negotiation. Current approaches to measuring spatial conservation values for the purposes of recognition and protection remain largely trapped in colonising cartographic methodologies that marginalise ...

The Unexpected Discovery of Paleocene? Coals in Outcrops Thought to Be Cambrian, Al Huqf, Oman
ABSTRACT Two brown organic deposits were encountered whilst investigating kaolinitic claystones thought to occur at the base of a Cambrian formation at outcrop. The age of these organic deposits is probably Paleocene from palynology. Organic petrography shows that they are subbituminous coals with some oil source potential.
