Introduction The distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) plays a crucial role in the function of the hoof and digit. Dislocations and subluxations in this region are rare and primarily of traumatic origin. Case Report This case report aims to describe two unusual cases of open DIPJ dislocation, including clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, treatment, and long-term follow-up. Both animals presented with open traumatic distal...

Despite a 2013 legal reform introducing polycentric governance and an active Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification, persistent overexploitation of Chilean Southern hake ( Merluccius australis ) raises fundamental questions about how institutional arrangements embedding participatory management and science‐based decision‐making actually shape management outcomes. We systematically analyzed all 54 meeting minutes of Chi...

Purpose Erosion is a major threat to soil and water resources. Tropical regions present higher erosion risks due to regional rainfall characteristics. Despite severe land degradation in Cuba, empirical research on soil erosion remains limited. The objectives of this study were to (1) evaluate the hydrological and erosion responses of five tropical soils, (2) assess their susceptibility to surface sealing and erosion due to slo...

Forests are at the frontline of both climate and biodiversity crises: forests are fundamental to the regulation of Earth's atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, and tropical forests alone harbour over half of all terrestrial species. Consequently, forests are at the centre of global efforts to both prevent extinctions of species and sequester carbon to mitigate climate change. Most carbon sequestration initiatives do not measure...

Background Urban greenspaces have the potential to mitigate urban carbon footprints by storing soil organic carbon (SOC). Different management and plant communities associated with different types of urban greenspaces may hold contrasting SOC, as well as different proportions of particulate (POC) and mineral-associated organic carbon (MAOC). In addition, management could outweigh the effects of climate or soil properties as dr...

Purpose of Review Snow-related processes occur over a large range of spatial scales. Studying these processes therefore requires observation techniques with different spatial coverages, from short-range (up to several meters) to medium-range (several meters to several kilometers) and long-range (several kilometers to hundreds of kilometers). However, integration of observations with different coverages remains challenging beca...
