People and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 2158-2177, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Global change is increasing the frequency and severity of human‐wildlife interactions by pushing people and wildlife into increasingly resource‐limited shared spaces. To understand the dynamics of human‐wildlife interactions and what may constitute human‐wildlife coexistence in the Anthropocene, there is a critical need to explore the spatial,

What do we know about opportunities and challenges for localities from Cannabis legalization?
Review of Policy Research, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 143-169, March 2022., 2022 Abstract This review article assays the scholarly and popular press literature on the opportunities and challenges the growing legalized cannabis industry offers U.S. local governments and communities. Localities are an important focus because in many states with legalized cannabis, local jurisdictions have authority to prevent or condition its ...

Software for prioritizing conservation actions based on probabilistic information
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 4, Page 1299-1308, August 2021., 2021 Abstract Marxan is the most common decision‐support tool used to inform the design of protected‐area systems. The original version of Marxan does not consider risk and uncertainty associated with threatening processes affecting protected areas, including uncertainty about the location and condition of species’ populations and habitats now and in the ...

Trends and knowledge gaps in field research investigating effects of anthropogenic noise
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 1, Page 115-129, February 2021., 2021 Abstract Anthropogenic noise is a globally widespread sensory pollutant, recognized as having potentially adverse effects on function, demography, and physiology in wild animals. Human population growth and associated changes in urbanization, transportation, and resource extraction all contribute to anthropogenic noise and are predicted to increase in ...

Effects of spatial autocorrelation and sampling design on estimates of protected area effectiveness
Conservation Biology, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 1452-1462, December 2020., 2020 Abstract Estimating the effectiveness of protected areas (PAs) in reducing deforestation is useful to support decisions on whether to invest in better management of areas already protected or to create new ones. Statistical matching is commonly used to assess this effectiveness, but spatial autocorrelation and regional differences in protection ...

Complex and nonlinear climate‐driven changes in freshwater insect communities over 42 years
Conservation Biology, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 1241-1251, October 2020., 2020 Abstract The ongoing biodiversity crisis becomes evident in the widely observed decline in abundance and diversity of species, profound changes in community structure, and shifts in species’ phenology. Insects are among the most affected groups, with documented decreases in abundance up to 76% in the last 25–30 years in some terrestrial ecosystems ...

Taxing Flaring and the Politics of State Methane Release Policy
Review of Policy Research, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 6-38, January 2020., 2020 Abstract Methane is a potent greenhouse gas but it has received strikingly less social science attention than carbon dioxide in examining climate policy options. This article explores American state policy toward methane that is not captured and instead released into the atmosphere during oil and gas production.

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT The residue of mesotrione poses an increasingly serious threat to the environment and human health. Thus, it is essential to establish a platform that integrates rapid detection and efficient degradation. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) materials have garnered significant attention owing to their designability.

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Arsenic presents a critical duality as both a hazardous environmental pollutant and an indispensable material for advanced semiconductor technologies. This study proposes an integrated reductive vacuum sublimation strategy, assisted by carbon and lead additives, to purify crude arsenic containing high oxygen (7.4%) and antimony (1326 mg kg−1).

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Environmental pollution across water, air, and soil systems poses escalating threats to human health and ecosystem stability, driven by heavy metals, persistent organic pollutants, particulate matter (PM), bioaerosols, and toxic gases. Conventional remediation technologies often suffer from limited selectivity, insufficient efficiency, and the
