Resource partitioning is crucial for the coexistence of colonial herons, as it allows multiple species to share the same habitat while minimising competition. This study took advantage of a natural experiment in 2006 and 2007 when Black-crowned Night Herons were prevented from breeding at Lake Fetzara in the first year due to the presence of a feral cat. This event provided valuable insight into the spatial and temporal dynamics of nest site selection among coexisting heron species, which consisted of Cattle Egrets (), Little Egrets () and Squacco Herons ().

Biochar has been recognized for its potential to improve the fertility soils by reducing the reliance on chemical fertilizers, mitigating carbon emissions, and fostering soil microbial growth. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of biochar addition on the physicochemical properties of arid and semi-arid soils containing microplastics, while also assessing its effect on Barley (Hordeum vulgare) yield under drought stress. The experiment was conducted in a glass greenhouse.

The objective of this study was to compare physicochemical traits and sensory profile of meat from rabbits of both sexes belonging to two genotypes, local population and new line (ITELV 2006) which exhibited better characteristics due to its genetic potential. A total of 60 rabbits at 90 days of age were used in the experiment. At slaughter, meat physicochemical and sensory characteristics were measured on muscle.

Article Synopsis
- * Essential oils were extracted from plant leaves and analyzed using advanced techniques, which identified various chemical compounds, primarily oxygenated monoterpenes, with 1,8-cineole being the most abundant.
- * Results showed that MCEOs had significant antioxidant activities and anti-inflammatory effects, both in vitro (using proteins) and in vivo (in rats), with promising concentration-dependent results.

Algeria is one of the Maghreb countries most affected by wildfires. The economic, environmental, and societal consequences of these fires can last several years after the wildfire. Often, it is possible to avoid such disasters if the detection of the outbreak of fire is fast enough, reliable, and early.
