Abstract There exist thousands of valuation studies for environmental goods and services, but the degree to which these have influenced policy is uncertain, especially in developing countries. Here, we demonstrate that a rapid assessment benefits standing forests highlands Borneo feasible can provide useful timely information conservation decisions. We used existing biophysical economic characterize values associated with areas proposed oil palm plantation development. focused on three...
The identification of undiagnosed disease outbreaks is critical for mobilizing efforts to prevent widespread transmission novel virulent pathogens. Recent developments in online surveillance systems allow the rapid communication earliest reports emerging infectious diseases and tracking their spread. efficacy these programs, however, inhibited by anecdotal nature informal reporting uncertainty pathogen identity early stages emergence. We developed theory connect known aetiology a network...
We used differential counts of white blood cells to determine heterophil:lymphocyte ratios in the Maui Creeper (Paroreomyza montana), an endemic, non-endangered Hawaiian honeycreeper, as a measure stress response varying distance and handling technique during translocations. The was situ experimental model for Po'ouli (Melamprosops phaeosoma), endangered species whom translocation is critical its recovery. translocated 18 Creepers across rugged terrain by hand-carrying individual birds two...
Effective control of introduced mammalian predators is essential to the recovery native bird species in Hawai?i. Between August 1996 and December 2004, rodents were controlled within three home ranges Po?ouli Melamprosops phaeosoma, a critically endangered Hawaiian honeycreeper. Rats using combination ground-based rodenticide (0.005% diphacinone) application snap traps. Beginning 2001, we monitored effectiveness these rodent efforts. Relative abundances Black Rattus rattus Polynesian R....
A healthy 34-year-old female presented with 1 day of diffuse urticaria and dermatographism unresponsive to loratadine diphenhydramine. The patient reported no apparent allergic exposures denied dyspnea, wheezing, emesis, or angioedema. Recent history was notable only for Moderna COVID-19 vaccine booster administered 10 days prior. Vital signs were normal. Examination revealed mild periorbital edema, dermatographism, extremities trunk (Figure 1). prescribed diphenhydramine 50 mg every 6 hours...
