First Report of Sydowia polyspora Causing Current Season Needle Necrosis on Abies grandis in Sweden
ABSTRACT Current season needle necrosis (CSNN) is a conifer foliar disease and a particular problem for Christmas tree plantations, as it causes necrosis and premature foliage shedding, resulting in significant economic and aesthetic devaluation. In September 2022, CSNN symptoms were detected on 10‐year‐old Abies grandis trees at a plantation located ...

Potential of Soils Natural Sorbents for Environmental Decontamination From 137Cs
ABSTRACT This study addresses the existing research gap concerning the lack of integrated data on the role of in situ soil components in the long‐term fixation of 137Cs under natural, protected, and non‐agricultural conditions. The contamination of ecosystems by radioactive isotopes, particularly 137Cs, represents a considerable environmental hazard ...

Antarctica may be vulnerable to invasion by Poa annua from a range of populations around the globe
Poa annua is capable of Antarctic invasion regardless of the propagule source and may become even more dangerous under climate warming. Therefore, the protection of Antarctica may be even more difficult in the future, as the survival barrier will be less restrictive. Specific management implications include minimizing the pressure of P.

The Tatra Mountains during the Last Glacial Maximum [PDF]
The Tatra Mountains extend along the border between Slovakia and Poland in the Western Carpathians. It is the highest and formerly one of the most glaciated massifs in the entire Carpathian mountain chain. We present a paleoglaciological map of the Tatra Mts. and its foreland (ca. 1270 km2) for the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) at the scale 1:50 000.
