Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.Spiders are important generalist predators in canola agroecosystems, but their diversity remains poorly studied on the Canadian Prairies. We surveyed spider assemblages in the Aspen Parkland region and tested pitfall trap modifications to improve sampling.

Lateral Load Resistance of Laminated Veneer Lumber Sengonwooden Joints with Wooden Dowels
Makara Journal of Technology, 2015 Analytical models for wooden-doweled joints need to be developed. The objective of this research is to determine whether the strength of wooden-doweled joints can be well predicted by equations developed for steel-doweled joints. In this experiment, various connection parameters, such as dowel diameter, species of the wooden dowel, and angle of joints,

The Louder, the Longer: Object Length Perception Is Influenced by Loudness, but Not by Pitch
Vision, 2019 Sound by itself can be a reliable source of information about an object’s size. For instance, we are able to estimate the size of objects merely on the basis of the sound they make when falling on the floor.
