Abstract This article traces the historical evolution of risk perception around the Nuclear Research Centre Karlsruhe, Germany, from 1956 to 1997. It does so by targeting the evolution of water‐related risks. Federal hopes in the postwar era that the Nuclear Research Centre would bring progress and prosperity clashed with local values and local ...

Trends and knowledge gaps in field research investigating effects of anthropogenic noise
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
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 ...

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

ABSTRACT Photocatalytic molecular oxygen (O2) activation provides a sustainable approach to produce singlet oxygen (1O2) for organic contaminants detoxification. However, the charge carriers‐involved pathway usually suffers from unsatisfactory 1O2 production efficiency owing to energy loss caused by photogenerated hole‐mediated superoxide species (•O2−

Effects of methylmercury bioaccumulation on survival of Columbia Spotted Frogs were modified by sex and length and were mediated by corticosterone (a glucocorticoid hormone) whereas effects of chytrid fungus were limited. ABSTRACT Amphibians have suffered widespread declines caused by many interacting factors whose effects are often difficult to ...
