Women's agency in nutrition in the association between women's empowerment in agriculture and food security: A case study from Uganda

open access: yesWorld Food Policy, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 228-249, November 2023., 2023
Abstract This study examined the relationship between women's empowerment in agriculture (WEA), women's agency in nutrition, and their food security. It aimed to quantify the moderating effect of women's agency in nutrition on the association between WEA and food security.

Factors that shape large‐scale gradients in clonality

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 827-837, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Many plant species reproduce clonally. However, ecologists still have much to learn about the factors that shape large‐scale patterns in plant clonal growth and reproduction, especially in the southern hemisphere. We addressed this knowledge gap by quantifying relationships between reproductive mode and a suite of plant characteristics and

A systematic review of snake translocations to identify potential tactics for reducing postrelease effects

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Advancements in the field of reintroduction biology are needed, but understanding of how to effectively conduct translocations, particularly with snakes, is lacking. We conducted a systematic review of snake translocation studies to identify potential tactics for reducing postrelease effects. We included studies on intentional, human‐mediated,

Environment regimes play an important role in structuring trait‐ and taxonomy‐based temporal beta diversity of riverine diatoms

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 6, Page 1442-1454, June 2022., 2022
Our study provides a new perspective into temporal beta diversity of daily riverine diatom communities. The results highlight the importance of taxonomic and functional temporal beta diversity and its decomposition, which is co‐driven by hydrology, nutrient and metal ions. We provide further evidence that environment regimes (e.g.

Functionally diverse stands promote leaf litter decomposition irrespective of litter species' resource acquisition strategy

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Stand functional diversity (RaoQ) and stand functional composition in terms of the functional traits of the component species (CWM trait) are critical for ecosystem processes and functioning, such as litter decomposition and associated nutrient cycling.

Use of species’ responses to cryptic anthropogenic disturbances for monitoring biodiversity outcomes in tropical forests

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

Breaking Down Social Capital: Urban Families' Use of Public Benefits

open access: yesPoverty &Public Policy, Volume 18, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines whether social capital facilitates or dissuades urban families from taking up safety net programs. Using longitudinal data from the Future of Families and Child Wellbeing Study, we explore how various components of social capital—operating at relational, organizational, and neighborhood levels—are related to participation

Strategies in Ericaceae to acquire phosphorus in phosphorus‐impoverished habitats in the southwest Australian biodiversity hotspot

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 10, Page 2889-2904, October 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In the Southwest Australian Biodiversity Hotspot, the greatest plant species diversity tends to occur on the most phosphorus (P)‐impoverished soils. Many plant species in this P‐impoverished environment release root carboxylates that mobilise soil P which is a more ...
