PondNet – towards a global network of experiments on the effects of climate change on aquatic ecosystems

Ecography, EarlyView.
Global change is reshaping the distribution of biodiversity and the functioning of ecosystems. Predicting the long‐term consequences of such changes remains a challenge due to a need for a clear understanding of the mechanisms underpinning ecosystem‐level responses, as well as the role of geographical and environmental contingencies.

Policy Networks and Policy Entrepreneurship in the EU: Explaining Structural Policy Change in Pharmaceutical Innovation Incentives and Health Technology Assessment

European Policy Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy process research has excelled in explaining structural policy change within national settings, but extensions and applications to the EU level have long proven challenging for scholars. Given that the EU is currently experiencing its longest period of Treaty stability since the 1980s—having evolved into a sui generis political system ...

Lymphocyte Micronucleus Formation Is Driven by Inflammation‐Induced Oxidative DNA Damage in Oesophageal Cancer Development

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Chromosomal instability is a hallmark of cancer, but minimally invasive ways to detect systemic DNA damage and cancer risk remain limited. Here, using patient blood samples, the authors investigated lymphocyte micronuclei (MN) frequency as a potential marker of DNA damage across the progression from gastroesophageal reflux disease to Barrett's ...

A simple index for assessing cumulative human impacts on mountain lakes

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Mountain lakes are highly sensitive ecosystems and effective sentinels of environmental change, yet the exposure and magnitude of the human footprint remain poorly quantified. In this study, we develop a simple and non‐invasive abiotic index to assess cumulative pressures on mountain lakes. The proposed index integrates eight variables grouped

Where Have I Seen You Before? Networks, Trust and Reciprocity as a Source of Collaboration in the Public Service

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although some studies focus on how bureaucrats' interactions with one another affect performance, they rarely focus on why these public servants collaborate. Bureaucrats' collaboration matters because it can significantly contribute to achieving policy goals.

Unveiling human–wildlife interactions in the context of livestock grazing abandonment and the return of large carnivores, ungulates and vultures: A stakeholder perspective

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

Interaction of sinking behaviour of Saharan dust and lithogenic and biogenic fluxes in the Canary Basin

Scientia Marina, 2019
Saharan dust events are currently the predominant source of lithogenic particles in the Canary Basin. In order to quantify this input and its relationship with the biogenic fluxes, a sediment trap was deployed in a free-drifting system at 150 m depth, 50

More pumas (Puma concolor) does not change perceptions: The mismatched response of ranchers to the presence of a top carnivore

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human‐wildlife conflicts (HWCs) are one of the most critical conservation challenges worldwide. Large carnivores are frequently at the centre of these conflicts because of the perceived and real threats they pose to livestock and human safety.
