Disentangling Temporal and Environmental Effects on Hematological Values in Prairie Rattlesnakes (Crotalus viridis)

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hematologic assessment is a common clinical tool used to characterize both individual and population health. In ectothermic organisms, the hematologic response is influenced by external factors such as temperature and season, especially in temperate species. Yet, specific environmental effects have received little direct attention.

Perennial Legumes Pueraria phaseoloides and Leucaena leucocephala Exhibit High Potential for Fertility Restoration of Degraded Mined Soils in Ghana

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
Revegetating the subsoil layer of abandoned gold mined sites with the perennial legumes Leucaena Leucocephala, Pueraria phaseoloides and Gliricidia sepium without any soil amendments increases the content of soil organic carbon and important macro‐nutrients, which are crucial for restoring soil health and productivity. These improvements in soil health
