Assessing habitat suitability for black grouse broods at the bioregional scale
The black grouse Lyrurus tetrix, a galliform species emblematic of the European Alps, is currently threatened by habitat change, particularly given the closure of heathland linked to the rising tree line at higher altitudes. The presence of heathlands in good ecological condition is, however, imperative for the species' reproduction.

Quantification of human‐caused mortality in an imperiled turtle
For many threatened and endangered species, the importance of human‐caused mortality relative to other sources has not been quantified, making it difficult to assess the effectiveness of mortality‐reduction strategies. We used radio telemetry data, pooled across studies at protected sites in the US states of Illinois and Wisconsin, to estimate natural ...

Integration of Micro‐CT and XRF Mapping for Multimodal 3D Analysis of Polychrome Wooden Artifacts
ABSTRACT Over the past 5 years, computer applications have become crucial to archeological research. Since the 1990s, the focus has transitioned from data management tools to the development of virtual models. Recently, digital documentation of cultural heritage has gained considerable focus, with 3D modeling of objects.
