Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract BACKGROUND Global food insecurity and the fact that food production contributes around 30% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is a major planetary challenge. Ruminant products are widely consumed since they are macro‐ and micronutrient dense; however, ruminants produce enteric methane (CH4), a potent GHG.

Euphorbia balsamifera subsp. adenensis (Euphorbiaceae) new to Socotra and notes on its taxonomy
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Euphorbia balsamifera Aiton has been treated since 1965 as a disjunct species with two subspecies, subsp. balsamifera in the Canary Islands (Spain) and adjacent parts of northwestern Africa, and subsp. adenensis (Deflers) P.R.O.Bally in southwestern Asia and northeastern tropical Africa. However, in 2021, E.

Settlement and anthropization of the Azores Islands
Journal of Biogeography, 2023 The landscape of the Azores Islands is one of the most deeply transformed among oceanic islands, as most of their original forests have been replaced by other vegetation types introduced from elsewhere. This has been considered a large-scale unintentional ecological and biogeographical experiment on the assembly of island biotas and ecosystems.

Air–sea feedback in the northeastern tropical Atlantic in boreal summer at intraseasonal time‐scales
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.This study investigates air–sea interactions in the northeastern tropical Atlantic at intraseasonal time‐scales, focusing on the feedback between sea‐surface temperature (SST) and surface winds. It finds that trade wind anomalies drive SST changes, creating a feedback loop that lasts 2–3 weeks.
