Using participatory scenario planning to explore the synergies and trade‐offs from upland treescape expansion

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The future of land use in the UK uplands is highly debated, with growing interest in increasing tree cover and other land use changes, alongside a desire to maintain traditional land use patterns and practices. Treescape expansion is likely to result in synergies and trade‐offs between different outcomes, so integrating stakeholder preferences

Euarthropods are an extremely diverse phylum in the modern, and have been since their origination in the early Palaeozoic. They grow through moulting the exoskeleton (ecdysis) facilitated by breaking along lines of weakness (sutures).

How multisensory nature exposure affects well‐being: Visual and auditory influences on affect

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human landscapes are increasingly diverse, and natural and urban features can coexist in one setting. Though the positive effects of nature exposure on human well‐being indices are well known, we understand less about how mixed environments, with their associated multisensory dimensions, influence well‐being.

The pick of the plot: An evidence‐based approach for selecting and testing suitable plants to use in annual seed mixes to attract insect pollinators

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Concern regarding wild pollinator declines has increased motivation to plant pollinator‐friendly plants in gardens and urban areas, but ‘plants for pollinators’ recommendations are often anecdotal and inaccurate. Here, we use a scientific evidence base to design and test annual flowering seed mixes for bees and hoverflies.
