Seasonal pattern of food habits of large herbivores in riverine alluvial grasslands of Brahmaputra floodplains, Assam by Anita Devi, Syed Ainul Hussain, Monika Sharma, Govindan Veeraswami Gopi, Ruchi Badola

“…This can be attributed to seasonal floods, habitat and forage availability, predation risk, and management practices such as controlled burning of the grasslands. The ongoing succession and invasion processes, anthropogenic pressures, and lack of grassland conservation policy are expected to affect the availability of the principal forage and suitable habitat of large herbivores in the Brahmaputra floodplains, which necessitates wet grassland-based management interventions for the continued co-existence of large herbivores in such habitats.…”

Prescribed Burns as a Tool to Mitigate Future Wildfire Smoke Exposure: Lessons for States and Rural Environmental Justice Communities by Makoto M. Kelp, Matthew C. Carroll, Tianjia Liu, Robert M. Yantosca, Heath E. Hockenberry, Loretta J. Mickley

“…We further simulate a set of prescribed burn scenarios and find that controlled burning interventions in northern California and the Pacific Northwest could have reduced the population‐weighted smoke exposure across the western United States by 21 μg/m3 in September 2020, while doing so in all other states would have reduced smoke exposure by only 1.5 μg/m3. …”
