Intraguild interactions shape vocal output and diel activity patterns in sympatric forest owls
Competition and intraguild predation among sympatric predators may force smaller, subordinate predators to reduce interactions with larger, dominant species via restricted spatial or temporal activity (acquiescence hypothesis). Simultaneously, dominant predators may actively exclude subordinate competitors through frequent vocal and physical aggression

Technical wildness: Modernity, romanticism, and the technocratic turn in Scottish rewilding
Abstract Technical wildness is a new and increasingly influential culture of nature. This paper marks its emergence in Scotland in the early 2020s. Focusing on Scotland's rapidly evolving land management sector, the paper traces how private rewilding companies position science‐led land management and natural capital markets as the most effective ...

Seeing both heritage and resource: A relational approach to forest owners' decision‐making
Abstract The loss of forest habitats calls for a change in the intensity and scale at which forests are managed. With voluntary policies on the rise, there is greater focus on understanding the motivations of private forest owners. While private forest management is likely driven by both economic and non‐economic factors, previous literature has paid ...

Effects of Multiple Mechanical Recycling Loops on the Material Properties of Liquid Silicone Rubber
Mechanical recycling of liquid silicone rubbers was investigated by grinding LSR production waste to small pieces, which are then used as filler in new products with varying percentages of recycled content. Four consecutive reprocessing cycles showed that multiple mechanical recycling loops are possible without significant loss of material performance.
