Definitions Matter: BIPOC Nonprofits and Racial Disparities in Nonprofit Funding

Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) nonprofits have gained increased attention and funding; however, a lack of clear definition and identification persists. This ambiguity hinders our understanding of the BIPOC nonprofits population and racial disparities in nonprofit funding.

Integrating and assessing metacommunity drivers of ecosystem function and resilience in benthic algal systems

Oikos, EarlyView.
Understanding the scales and mechanisms by which species composition interacts with ecosystem functions is critical for forecasting the effects of environmental perturbations on ecosystem services. However, the linkages between what regulates the ecosystem functions of dispersal‐capable networks of communities (metacommunities) and what regulates a ...

Partial recovery of large seed arrival following ecological restoration in fragmented tropical rainforests

Oikos, EarlyView.
Forest restoration success depends crucially on the reinitiation of ecological processes such as seed arrival that drive natural regeneration. We know little about whether, by increasing and diversifying local seed sources to alleviate seed limitation, and attracting animal frugivores to alleviate dispersal limitation, restoration could shift seed ...

Home and away: allometry and climate drive morphology of European rabbits in their native and introduced range

Oikos, EarlyView.
Climatic conditions shape phenotypic evolution by driving adaptations that optimise organismal function. Invasive species provide valuable systems to study these processes, as they often encounter novel climatic conditions in their introduced ranges. The European rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus, native to the Iberian Peninsula, has established populations

A recipe for recovery: diet as a decisive tool in species conservation

Oikos, EarlyView.
Animals consume foods in specific quantities and ratios to meet a multi‐dimensional nutrient target that maximizes their fitness. Attempts to reach this target in an ever‐changing nutritional landscape often influence animal foraging behavior, habitat choice, and food‐web interactions. Consequently, understanding the nutritional ecology of a species is

Beneath the surface: Seed bank homogenization and multiscalar variation in Boston's community gardens

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban community gardens are often assumed to enhance fine‐scale biodiversity, yet repeated disturbance and shared horticultural norms may also contribute to urban biotic homogenization—the convergence of species composition across spatial scales and sites within the urban matrix.

Prediction of Tensile Behavior in Additively Manufactured Polymer Matrix Composites via an Integrated Analytical Approach

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Integrated analytical framework for tensile response of additively manufactured polymer composites, supported by experimental validation. ABSTRACT Additive manufacturing (AM) enables innovative product development through its material versatility and design freedom, further enhanced by advanced materials such as composites.

Comparative Evaluation of Large Amplitude Oscillatory Shear (LAOS) Analysis Methods for Detecting Surfactant‐Induced Structural Evolution in Xanthan Gum Solutions

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
A comparative large‐amplitude oscillatory shear analysis reveals how cationic surfactants progressively weaken xanthan gum networks. While conventional rheology identifies network softening, advanced LAOS methods uncover nonlinear deformation mechanisms and transient structural evolution that remain hidden in cycle‐averaged measurements.
