Journal of Diabetes, Volume 15, Issue 6, Page 496-507, June 2023., 2023 Highlights Using a large‐scale prospective population‐based cohort study, we found that a higher frequency of daytime napping is associated with an increased risk of incident type 2 diabetes (T2D), and such relations are modified by body fat percentage (BFP) and C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels.

Introducing a common taxonomy to support learning from failure in conservation
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Although some sectors have made significant progress in learning from failure, there is currently limited consensus on how a similar transition could best be achieved in conservation and what is required to facilitate this. One of the key enabling conditions for other sectors is a widely accepted and standardized classification system for ...

Systematic review of conservation interventions to promote voluntary behavior change
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Understanding human behavior is vital to developing interventions that effectively lead to proenvironmental behavior change, whether the focus is at the individual or societal level. However, interventions in many fields have historically lacked robust forms of evaluation, which makes it hard to be confident that these conservation ...

Mitigating the effects of climate change on the nests of sea turtles with artificial irrigation
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract For sea turtles, like many oviparous species, increasing temperatures during development threaten to increase embryonic mortality, alter offspring quality, and potentially create suboptimal primary sex ratios. Various methods are being implemented to mitigate the effects of climate change on reproductive success, but these methods, such as ...

Rapid assessment of insect pollination services to inform decision‐making
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 4, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Pollinator declines have prompted efforts to assess how land‐use change affects insect pollinators and pollination services in agricultural landscapes. Yet many tools to measure insect pollination services require substantial landscape‐scale data and technical expertise.

A landscape‐scale framework to identify refugia from multiple stressors
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 1, February 2022., 2022 Abstract From a conservation perspective, quantifying potential refugial capacity has been predominantly focused on climate refugia, which is critical for maintaining the persistence of species and ecosystems. However, protection from other stressors, such as human‐induced changes in fire and hydrology, that cause habitat loss, degradation, and ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 58, Issue 11, Page 2566-2578, November 2021., 2021 The development of fungicide resistance greatly threatens food security and ecological sustainability, and it is urgent need to develop agricultural practices which can ameliorate this problem. Our results show that potato crop with a genetic diversity is associated with a late blight pathogen of higher fungicide sensitivity and lower potential of ...

Risk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 130-157, June 2021., 2021 Abstract Trust and confidence have been identified as crucial for efforts at solving the conundrum of high‐level radioactive waste management (RWM). However, mistrust has its virtues, especially in the form of “civic vigilance”—healthy suspicion towards the powers that be.

The bean method as a tool to measure sensitive behavior
Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 722-732, April 2021., 2021 Abstract Conservationists need to measure human behavior to guide decisions and evaluate their impact. However, activities can be misreported and reporting accuracy may change following conservation interventions, making it hard to verify any apparent changes.

Using cognitive mapping to understand conservation planning
Conservation Biology, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 1364-1372, December 2020., 2020 Abstract We considered a common research tool for understanding the mental models behind conservation decisions: cognitive mapping. Developed by cognitive psychologists, the elicitation of mental models with cognitive mapping has been used to understand soil management in Spain, invasive grass management in Australia, community forest management in the
