Navigating novel resources: A field test of the effects of small mammal personality on dispersal of Quercus seeds by Ivy Yen, Alessio Mortelliti

“…Personality may be critical to consider in the context of novel seeds as inexperienced individuals may default to specific behavioral tendencies and foraging strategies when deciding if and how to utilize resources. In a large‐scale field experiment in central Maine (USA), we examined seed selection behavior in two species of small mammals (Peromyscus maniculatus and Myodes gapperi) for eight species of Quercus acorns—two of which are native to Maine and six of which are novel to our populations but expected to migrate northward. …”

Research progress and innovative pathways for the large-scaled green and low-carbon utilization of coal-based solid wastes by Lang LIU, Mengbo ZHU, Shuangming WANG, Pan YANG, Bo YU, Shishan RUAN, Junjun YANG, Geng XIE

“…It also proposes innovative pathways for the green and low-carbon utilization of coal-based solid waste. The study shows that: ① Coal-based solid waste can be classified into two categories: denatured and original coal-based solid waste, with denatured coal-based solid waste having the potential to develop cementing materials and carbon sequestration functions, while original coal-based solid waste possesses the characteristics of natural aggregates and soil materials; ② Currently, the main large-scale utilization models of coal-based solid waste include mine backfilling (such as cementing materials, paste backfilling, and grout backfilling), construction materials (such as cement supplementary materials, road materials, and precast components), ecological restoration (such as filling of subsidence areas, reclamation of wastelands, and soil improvement), and resource extraction and utilization (carbonaceous components, aluminium, sulfur and rare elements); ③ A new technology for graded, quality-specific, and full-component utilization of coal-based solid waste is proposed, which extracts high-value components and uses the remaining components for backfilling of mined-out areas, maximizing resource utilization; ④ Innovative technologies for modifying and co-disposing of high-salinity wastewater, modifying backfill for co-constructing storage facilities, and co-sequestering hazardous solid waste in functional storage are discussed. …”
