Development of a Taper Equation for Teak (Tectona grandis L.f.) Growing in Western Thailand
Teak is an important and valuable tropical hardwood species. In this study, we developed and evaluated suitable taper equations for teak growing in Western Thailand using a formulation of Goodwin cubic polynomial model combined with a bark thickness ...

This study investigates how large mammalian herbivores shape arthropod communities in African savannas, using a broad gradient of herbivory types and intensities to assess these effects under real‐world, non‐experimental conditions. Abstract Savanna ecosystems support unique biodiversity and provide livelihoods for millions of people.

Understanding the Hygienic Behavioral Dynamics of Ants Using Multi‐State Models
Leaf‐cutting ants adjust grooming to pathogen risk and vulnerable nestmates. Multi‐state Markov models reveal shorter, frequent self‐grooming bouts and reduced allogrooming persistence under stress, optimizing social immunity via stigmergic decision‐making.

ABSTRACT This paper advances scholarship on agri‐alternatives by probing the gap between romanticised narratives of how alternative farming transitions ought to be and the actual practices farmers enact in their fields. Focusing on moments when such alternatives encounter on‐the‐ground realities, we propose ambiguous ecologies as a lens to explore the ...
