Tire rubber-derived contaminants 6PPD and 6PPD-quinone reduce attachment and outgrowth of trophoblast spheroids onto endometrial epithelial cells by Jong Geol Lee, Seon Min Lee, Moonjung Hyun, Jeong Doo Heo

“…N-(1,3-Dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD), a synthetic additive widely used in the rubber industry, and its oxidized product 6PPD-quinone (6PPDQ), have garnered widespread attention as an emerging hazardous chemicals owing to their potential detrimental effects on aquatic ecosystem and human health. The effects of 6PPD and 6PPDq on the female reproductive tract, especially embryo implantation, remain unknown and were investigated in this study. …”

Effect of intercropping Lolium perenne in Ziziphus jujuba orchards on soil quality in the canopy by Yao Ma, Bin Cao, Xiaojia Wang, Weijun Chen

“…A pertinent question is whether varying densities of ryegrass intercropping can improve the uptake of nutrients and water by the jujube tree, the primary species in this ecosystem. In this context, a 2-year field experiment was conducted with three densities of perennial ryegrass intercropped with Lingwu jujube. …”

Variation in Benthic Macroinvertebrates Along aLongitudinal Gradient of a Disturbed Nyakambu Stream Kabale District Southwestern Uganda. by Byaruhanga, Benson

“…In the tropics the demands for domestic water are common (Mathooko et al. 2009), which become detrimental to the associated water resources when they exceed the tolerance range of the macroinvertebrate community and also affect individual taxa composition, thus impacting stream ecosystem functioning (Meyer 1997; Wagenhoff et al. 2011). …”

Characterising the short- and long-term impacts of tropical cyclones on mangroves using the Landsat archive by Emma Asbridge, Claire Krause, Richard Lucas, Christopher J. Owers, Kerrylee Rogers, Leo Lymburner, Norman Mueller, Emma Ai, Sebastian Wong

“…Understanding these patterns is critical as the changing frequency and intensity of cyclones and compounding effects of climate change, particularly sea-level rise, threaten mangroves and their ecosystem services. Improvements in Earth observation data, particularly satellite-based sensors and datacube environments, have enhanced capacity to classify time-series data and advanced landscape monitoring. …”

Extinction studies in focus: Reflections on photography at a time of ecological decline by Kate Simpson, Sarah Oakes, Aureja Stirbyte, Katie Prosser, Timothy M. Brown, Jonathan David Roberts, Amy J. Bartlett

“…Through compositional inclusion or exclusion, the photograph can assert and communicate what belongs in a picture, in a landscape, in an ecosystem. It can illuminate what we deem conservation-worthy, or, on a larger scale, which extinctions are attention-worthy. …”

Exploring chitin metabolite profiles and sensitivity differences in Collembola species exposed to teflubenzuron by Saúl Fernandes, Diana Ilyaskina, Matty P. Berg, Marja H. Lamoree, Pim E.G. Leonards, Cornelis A.M. van Gestel

“…Effective environmental risk assessments of chemical plant protection products, such as benzoylurea pesticides, are crucial for safeguarding ecosystems. These pesticides, including teflubenzuron, target chitin synthesis in arthropods but also pose risks to non-target soil fauna like Collembola, which play essential roles in decomposition and nutrient cycling. …”

Multispecies occupancy models unravel reduced colonization probabilities in plants from the unique Amazonian cangas by Rafael de Fraga, Luiz Gustavo Rodrigues Oliveira Santos, Valeria da Cunha Tavares, Leonardo Carreira Trevelin, Maurício Takashi Coutinho Watanabe, Leandro Maioli, Samir Rolim, Carolina da Silva Carvalho

“…We used a set of 22 plant species distributed in a globally unique ecosystem, the eastern Amazonian mosaics of forests, iron-rich open “cangas” and iron mine lands, as a model to test whether dynamic multispecies occupancy models can be used to assess population decline. …”
