Annual survival in a dynamic species: pronghorn survival patterns across their northern range
Quantifying variation in demographic patterns, such as survival and recruitment, is critical for understanding population dynamics and informing evidence‐based and adaptive wildlife management. In this study, we leverage an extensive dataset from over 1000 GPS collared pronghorn Antilocapra americana to provide the first large‐scale evaluation of ...

Defence traits vary across leaf ages in the thistles (Cardueae)
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants produce a variety of structural and chemical defences to deter herbivores, which can covary across every scale of biological organization. Along these lines, it has been suggested that young leaves differ from old leaves in their defence strategies, but studies ...

Abstract Existing circular economy (CE) research has primarily explored capabilities for the principle of closing resource loops (recycle and recover) in limited institutional contexts. However, little is known about the capabilities for the principle of slowing resource loops (reduce and reuse), despite its alignment towards achieving net zero ...

Cuttings, Combings, Fettlings and Flock: Gender and Australian Wool ‘Waste’, 1900–1950
ABSTRACT As Australia's wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century, the wool processing and clothes manufacturing industries generated waste – products like cuttings, combings, fettlings and flock. Salvaged and then sold to waste merchants, these and other materials had a second life.

While pneumatic antishock trousers are a useful adjunct for the initial management of hypotension, they do not replace, but can augment, fluid replacement and other resuscitative procedures. They can be applied quickly and are relatively safe when used in the manner recommended. They must not be used in a patient with congestive heart failure. Finally,

Temporal Responses to Warming: Do Wild Herbivores Trade Off Heat, Predators, and Humans?
We untangled how summer temperature, predators, and humans influenced behavioral responses in two deer species. Both reduced their daily activity level in response to warming, yet only roe deer increased nocturnality to avoid heat. Conversely, fallow deer traded off heat avoidance with predator avoidance.

Abstract The rapid expansion of biodiversity data presents new opportunities to understand and forecast biosphere dynamics. However, disparate and dispersed data, taxonomic and geographic inconsistencies, pervasive quality issues, and a lack of reproducable workflows hinder synthesis, introduce biases and limit accurate assessment of biodiversity ...
