Warm Spring Weather Alters Calling Phenology of Four Sympatric Early‐Breeding Anurans

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
An unusually warm March in 2024 (“false spring”) followed by freezing temperatures allowed us to assess the impact of a weather event on an amphibian community. The calling activity of all four species was associated with increasing temperature, and the first date of calling was advanced by 11–18 days.

Microbiota‐Mediated Sequential Gallery Colonization by Adults and Larvae of an Invasive Bark Beetle

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Dispersing adult beetles harbor more pinitol‐degrading microbes to colonize novel host pines with high levels of pinitol stress. These microbes from the beetle's exoskeleton and gut will be transmitted into the gallery via adults’ feeding and frass, whose proliferation in the gallery contributes to the formation of a low‐pinitol microhabitat.

TreeSegAgent: Agentic tree instance segmentation via a multi‐anchor pipeline

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Individual‐tree segmentation from three‐dimensional forest point clouds underpins forest inventory, biomass estimation and ecosystem monitoring, but remains challenging in structurally complex stands, where vertical heterogeneity and point‐density degradation weaken the robustness of centre‐offset‐based instance grouping.

Mechanisms of resistance of white spruce to the spruce bud moth

The Forestry Chronicle, 1996
There is a genetic basis to resistance of open-grown white spruce trees to their primary pest, the spruce bud moth, Zeiraphera canadensis Mutt. & Free. Resistance is attributable to late budburst and unknown factors associated with higher predation and parasitism of eggs and mortality of old larvae.

Seasonal Habitat Selection by a Threatened Ungulate in an Industrializing Boreal Landscape

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Understanding habitat selection by Threatened wood bison in landscapes characterized by anthropogenic disturbance is important for conservation planning. During summer and winter, bison selected for linear (e.g., roads, seismic lines, pipelines) and polygonal (e.g., well sites) disturbances, unless there were high densities of linear features.

The dual crisis: Climate change simultaneously drives pollinator decline and pest outbreaks

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Climate change acts as an asymmetric ecological filter, favouring r‐selected pest traits (rapid reproduction, generalism) while disadvantaging K‐selected pollinators. For every 1°C of warming, bee species richness declines ~25% since the 1990s, while pest‐induced crop losses increase by 10%–25%. A network‐centric approach integrating climate‐responsive

Delivery and adherence of biomarker‐guided antibiotic treatment protocols in the ADAPT‐Sepsis clinical trial: an in‐trial descriptive process evaluation of daily procalcitonin‐ and C‐reactive protein‐guided protocols

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Biomarker‐guided antibiotic protocols using daily procalcitonin or C‐reactive protein have been proposed to optimise antibiotic duration in sepsis. This pre‐planned process evaluation of the ADAPT‐Sepsis trial examined delivery and clinician adherence to procalcitonin‐ and C‐reactive protein‐guided protocols.

Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

Boreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

A Territorial Approach to Transitioning Oil and Gas Producing Regions: Comparative Practices and Prospects for Canada

Canadian Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract Oil and gas transitions are relatively new and especially difficult because the sector is large, economically central, and deeply embedded in national energy systems. Territorial approaches—grounded in regional political economies, institutions, and community impacts—offer a politically feasible way to begin meaningful oil and gas transitions ...
