Elaborating the Motivations and Attitudes Driving Interest in Voluntary Biodiversity Credits
ABSTRACT Global biodiversity loss has prompted the search for new sources of conservation finance, such as voluntary biodiversity credits (VBCs). However, despite optimistic market projections, current uptake of VBCs is limited. Adopting an interpretive approach, we analyse 21 semistructured interviews with early market actors (buyers, sellers ...

ABSTRACT Gridded climate reanalysis datasets can be viewed as image cubes, yet chemometric decomposition methods remain underutilized in climate data analysis. This study applied pixel‐based Multivariate Curve Resolution–Alternating Least Squares (MCR‐ALS) with a trilinearity constraint to ERA5 precipitation data over the Iberian Peninsula (1940–2024).

COI eDNA metabarcoding was used to characterize coastal marine biodiversity along Japan's Kuroshio‐influenced coastline. This survey detected 28 eukaryotic phyla, including corals, mollusks, and algae, and revealed distinct regional community assemblages.

Overharvesting of wild edible plants poses a growing threat to plant populations worldwide, particularly for slow‐growing species with limited regeneration. We quantified fruit extraction from the third‐largest known population of Jubaea chilensis—an endangered palm endemic to Chile—modeled the critical harvest threshold, and assessed consumer ...

ABSTRACT This study addresses the limitations of reductionist approaches to citizens' proenvironmental behaviour (PEB) by adopting a systems thinking perspective. Using qualitative system dynamics, it develops a causal loop diagram for proenvironmental behaviour (CLD‐PEB) that conceptualizes PEB as a dynamic system generated through interacting ...

In our work, we review the advantages and limitations of a range of methods developed to collect in situ and in a minimally destructive manner the water vapor from soils, from plant xylem, and from the ecosystem atmosphere for the online or laboratory isotope analysis (δ2H and δ18O).

Abstract Understanding the environmental controls on nighttime Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEEnight) in tropical ecosystems is essential for constraining carbon cycle processes under increasing climate variability. In this study, we analyzed 21 site‐years of eddy covariance and ancillary measurements from two contrasting ecosystems, a cultivated savannah ...

Abstract The United States (US) summer warming hole, marked by muted warming or cooling in maximum dry‐bulb temperature (Tmax) across parts of the central and southeastern US, is a regional exception to broader warming. However, Tmax does not capture atmospheric total heat content when humidity changes simultaneously. Using ERA5 reanalysis from 1950 to

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding whether land use intensification causes regime shifts (i.e. persistent, large changes in ecosystem states) is of key importance for management, particularly if these shifts occur abruptly as thresholds in land use intensity are crossed.

Mismatch Between Current Essential Biodiversity Variables and Available Data for Southeast Asia
The essential biodiversity variables provide a centralized group of variables to enable the monitoring of biodiversity. Yet, some of the most diverse parts of the planet may lack the data to be able to develop these variables. Here we explore the availability of that data for one of the most diverse parts of the world, the Southeast Asian region, and ...
