Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While ESG (environmental, social, and governance) is emphasized among listed companies for their stakeholders and ESG disclosures, ESG engagement among unlisted companies has been rarely examined due to data limitations. This is particularly problematic for the agri‐food industry that has significant impacts on the environment and consists ...

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sustainability labels can help support consumers select more socially and environmentally friendly options, thereby enhancing returns for conscientious producers and promoting the transition to a more sustainable food system. However, consumer confusion regarding labels' meaning undermines their effectiveness.

Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Native plants offer a variety of aesthetic (e.g., fall colour, fruit, flowers) and functional benefits (e.g., pollinator friendly, wildlife friendly, water management). How these benefits influence consumer choice and perceived value of native versus introduced plants is not well understood.

Robotic Environmental Monitoring Using Gelatin Hydrogels as a Biodegradable Adhesive
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Gelatin‐based hydrogels are presented as a robust, biodegradable, and water‐soluble method of adhesion for robotic environmental monitoring. Factors affecting the adhesion strength are characterized, and the hydrogel is tested on different materials with varying surface roughness.

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.The study presents a prototype novel workflow that utilizes artificial intelligence for the digitization of natural history collections, which would fit within a robotic‐integrated system. The work focuses on a collaborative‐robot (cobot) inspired workflow to digitize one of the largest collections housed at the Natural History Museum UK: pinned ...

Extreme fire severity interacts with seed traits to moderate post‐fire species assemblages
American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Climate change is globally pushing fire regimes to new extremes, with unprecedented large‐scale severe fires. Persistent soil seed banks are a key mechanism for plant species recovery after fires, but extreme fire severity may generate soil temperatures beyond thresholds seeds are adapted to.

Grass functional traits reflect the long history of fire and grazers in the savannas of Texas
American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Understanding relationships among grass traits, fire, and herbivores may help improve conservation strategies for savannas that are threatened by novel disturbance regimes. Emerging theory, developed in Africa, emphasizes that functional traits of savanna grasses reflect the distinct ways that fire and grazers consume biomass ...
