Environmental heterogeneity and spatial variation mediates plant diversity and ecosystem stability in mountain ecosystems of the Mediterranean Andes

Ecography, EarlyView.
Globally, mountains are highly diverse ecosystems that serve as natural laboratories for testing ecological theories, while providing vital ecosystem services. Their biodiversity arises from the interaction between elevational gradients and topographic complexity, which generate strong variation in environmental conditions across short spatial scales ...

‘Incoherence Is, in a Way, a Choice’: The Production of Policy Coherence at the Intersection of Uruguay's Agricultural, Environmental and Water Policies

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores the production of coherence between Uruguay's agricultural, environmental and water policies amidst growing tensions, which are particularly manifested in conflicts between an expanding agricultural sector and water insecurity for the broader public.

Transverse Square Toroidal Vortices with Giant Ferrotoroidic Coupling in Dy‐Bridged Single‐Molecule Toroics

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Single‐molecular toroics (SMTs) offer protected magnetic states for next‐generation quantum technologies. Ab initio and model analyses of Cu2Dy7 and Cu4Dy12 reveal unconventional excited states featuring delocalised toroidal moments that couple into strong ferro‐ and antiferrotoroidic configurations, providing unprecedented magnetic coupling within ...

Analytical Floor Response Spectra for Performance‐Based Seismic Design of Non‐structural Elements in Reinforced Concrete Frame Buildings

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Damage to non‐structural elements significantly impacts the seismic performance of buildings in terms of economic and functionality losses. Consequently, performance‐based seismic design of non‐structural elements has become a key pillar of a comprehensive building‐seismic resilience strategy, for instance, through loss‐targeted earthquake ...

Regional Adjustments to NGA‐West2 Ground‐Motion Models for Turkey

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a ground‐motion model updating (GMMU) framework to adjust NGA‐West2 models for predicting a set of intensity measures in Turkey, including peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and pseudo‐spectral acceleration (PSA) at periods ranging from 0.01 to 10 s. The GMMU framework integrates bias identification
