Intelligence is the ability to learn from experience and to adapt to, shape, and select environments. (Sternberg RJ. Intelligence. Dialogues Clin Neurosci. 2012 Mar;14(1):19-27. doi: 10.31887/DCNS.2012.14.1/rsternberg. PMID: 22577301; PMCID: PMC3341646.)
In soil science: relatively uniform materials that extend laterally, continuously or discontinuously, throughout the pedounit; it runs approximately parallel to the surface of the ground and differs from the related horizons in many chemical, physical and biological properties.

Gleysols comprise soils saturated with groundwater for long enough periods to develop reducing conditions resulting in gleyic properties, including underwater and tidal soils. This pattern is essentially made up of reddish, brownish or yellowish colours at aggregate surfaces and/or in the upper soil layers, in combination with greyish/bluish colours inside the aggregates and/or deeper in the soil. Many underwater soils have only the latter. Gleysols with a thionic horizon or hypersulfidic material (acid sulfate soils) are common. Redox processes may also be caused by upmoving gases, like CO2 or CH4. Common names for many Gleysols are Gley (former Soviet Union), Gleyzems (Russia), Gleye, Marschen, Watten and Unterwasserböden (Germany), Gleissolos (Brazil) and Hydrosols (Australia). In the United States of America many Gleysols belong to Aquic Suborders and Endoaquic Great Groups of various Orders (Aqualfs, Aquents, Aquepts, Aquolls, etc.) or to the Wassents.

A nest box is a human-made enclosure provided for animals to nest in. Nest boxes are most frequently utilized for birds, in which case they are also called birdhouses or a birdbox/bird box, but some mammals such as bats may also use them. (Wikipedia. 2025. Nest box. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nest_box)
An official procedure conducted over a defined period to determine the presence or absence of pests, or the boundaries or characteristics of a pest population, in an area, place of production or production site. (An official procedure conducted over a defined period to determine the
