Optimizing the morphology transition on MOVPE-grown (100) β-Ga2O3 film between step-flow growth and step-bunching: A machine learning-assisted approach

open access: yesAPL Materials
The step-bunching instability in (100) β-Ga2O3 films grown via metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy was investigated using a machine learning approach based on Random Forest (RF).

Elevation‐dependent soil and plant responses to a decade of warming and species removal

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding how ecosystems retain or release carbon under warming is a critical challenge. Dominant plant species, which contribute the most biomass, can mediate ecosystem responses to warming by modifying microclimate and nutrient cycling. To investigate how warming and shifts in plant dominance interact to affect carbon and nutrient dynamics, we ...

Human–wildlife coexistence and social context: Evidence from farmer communities in southern Sri Lanka

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies on human–wildlife interactions (HWI) often focus on conflict mitigation studies, thus overlooking underlying factors that influence community decisions to coexist with wildlife. To address this knowledge gap, we collected empirical evidence of how community interactions with wildlife are shaped by their social contexts.

Birds of many feathers? Examining perceptions among US birders following the American Ornithological Society's eponymous renaming decision

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In 2023, the American Ornithological Society announced it will phase out the English eponymous (honorific) names of 152 bird species in the United States and Canada, some of which are named after historical figures with racist, genocidal, or otherwise violent histories that serve as reminders of ornithology's exclusive origins.
