  • Airborne birch pollen dispersal in an urban setting – case study

    Open AccessAnne M Overduin‐de Vries, Nemi Dorst et al.ARTICLETrees Forests and People2026

  • Open letter

    Open AccessDavid Bartholomew, Paul Smith et al.ARTICLEPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET2026

    Despite growing investment in restoration, weak accountability and poor biodiversity monitoring mean many projects fail to achieve ecological recovery. The Global Biodiversity Standard (TGBS) offers a practical way to ensure that restoration finance delivers measurable gains for nature. By providing independent, site-based verification and engaging local experts, TGBS builds trust, transparency and equity in restoration practice. Its adoption cou…

  • Lynx presence in Roman times in the lower germanic Limes region

    Open AccessIvo R Horn, Aviva Shuman et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science…2021Referencias: 6

    In 2001 and 2002 an excavation conducted in the town of Alphen aan den Rijn in the Netherlands revealed the vestiges of a Roman fort, Castellum Albaniana, situated along the historical Rhine delta and used for centuries during the Roman occupation (41 AD − 275 CE). Among the animal bones retrieved from the surrounding defensive ditches, remains of Lynx lynx bones were found. Lynx is currently not native to the Netherlands but might have been in h…

  • DNA barcoding augments conventional methods for identification of medicinal plant species traded at Tanzanian markets

    Open AccessSarina Veldman, Yingzi Ju et al.ARTICLEJournal of Ethnopharmacology2020

    Use of a tiered approach increases the identification success of medicinal plants sold in local market and corroborates findings that DNA barcoding can elucidate the identity of material that is unidentifiable based on morphology and literature as well as verify or disqualify these identifications. Results of this study can be used as a basis for quantitative market surveys of fragmented herbal medicine and to investigate conservation issues asso…

  • A multidisciplinary study of a Late Pleistocene arctic ground squirrel ( Urocitellus parryii ) midden from Yukon, Canada

    Open AccessBram W Langeveld, Bram Langeveld et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2018

    Middens (nests and caches) of Late Pleistocene arctic ground squirrels ( Urocitellus parryii ) that are preserved in the permafrost of Beringia archive valuable paleoecological data. Arctic ground squirrels selectively include the plant material placed in middens. To account for this selectivity bias, we used a multi-proxy approach that includes ancient DNA (aDNA) and macro- and microfossil analyses. Here, we provide insight into Pleistocene vege…

  • Traps as treats

    Open AccessRachel Schwallier, Hugo J De Boer et al.ARTICLEJournal of Ethnobiology and…2015Referencias: 26

    BACKGROUND: An accessory to modern developing economies includes a shift from traditional, laborious lifestyles and cuisine to more sedentary careers, recreation and convenience-based foodstuffs. Similar changes in the developed western world have led to harmful health consequences. Minimization of this effect in current transitional cultures could be met by placing value on the maintenance of heritage-rich food. Vitally important to this is the …

  • Analysis of coprolites from the extinct mountain goat Myotragus balearicus

    Open AccessFrido Welker, Elza Duijm et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2014

    Humans colonized the Balearic Islands 5–4 ka ago. They arrived in a uniquely adapted ecosystem with the Balearic mountain goat Myotragus balearicus (Bovidae, Antilopinae, Caprini) as the only large mammal. This mammal went extinct rapidly after human arrival. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the extinction of M. balearicus . For the present study ancient DNA analysis (Sanger sequencing, Roche-454, Ion Torrent), and pollen and macr…

  • Multiproxy study of the last meal of a mid-Holocene Oyogos Yar horse, Sakha Republic, Russia

    Open AccessBarbara Gravendeel, А В Протопопов et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2014Citada por: 1Referencias: 9

    The last meal of a horse that lived in the northern part of the Sakha Republic (Russia) c. 5400 years ago was studied using pollen, spores, botanical macroremains, lipid composition, and ancient DNA in order to reconstruct its components. Pollen of Poaceae was superabundant, but this may be because of over-representation as a consequence of grazed inflorescenses of grasses. We evaluate the paleo-environmental indicator value of the different meth…

  • Collection and trade of wild-harvested orchids in Nepal

    Open AccessAbishkar Subedi, Bimal Kunwar et al.ARTICLEJournal of Ethnobiology and…2013Citada por: 8Referencias: 17

    Background Wild orchids are illegally harvested and traded in Nepal for use in local traditional medicine, horticulture, and international trade. This study aims to: 1) identify the diversity of species of wild orchids in trade in Nepal; 2) study the chain of commercialization from collector to client and/or export; 3) map traditional knowledge and medicinal use of orchids; and 4) integrate the collected data to propose a more sustainable approac…

  • The Ecological implications of a Yakutian mammoth's last meal

    Open AccessBas Van Geel, André Aptroot et al.ARTICLEQuaternary Research2008

    Part of a large male woolly mammoth ( Mammuthus primigenius ) was preserved in permafrost in northern Yakutia. It was radiocarbon dated to ca. 18,500 14 C yr BP (ca. 22,500 cal yr BP). Dung from the lower intestine was subjected to a multiproxy array of microscopic, chemical, and molecular techniques to reconstruct the diet, the season of death, and the paleoenvironment. Pollen and plant macro-remains showed that grasses and sedges were the main …
