Community perceptions and management of the fleshy‐fruited invasive alien plant Pyracantha angustifolia: Insights from South Africa's Montane grasslands

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive alien plants can provide economic or cultural benefits to local communities, influencing perceptions and potentially affecting management decisions. Understanding these perceptions is crucial to avoiding inefficiencies, misunderstandings and conflicts in the management of invasive alien species.

Spatial Variability of Permafrost and Active Layer Thickness in a Forested Hillslope of the Taiga Shield

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Under continued climate warming, understanding present‐day permafrost distribution and the controls on ground thaw are critical for predicting permafrost thaw trajectories and associated implications. This study presents a high‐resolution investigation of permafrost extent and active layer thickness (ALT) across a coniferous forested hillslope

A Statistical‐Process Hybridized Approach to Modeling Permafrost Distribution in a Boreal Wetland Ecosystem, Whatì, NT, Canada

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐resolution mapping of permafrost in ecologically and topographically complex landscapes remains a major challenge. Existing models of permafrost extent often rely on equilibrium assumptions, which can misrepresent conditions in regions where permafrost persists largely due to ecosystem structure.

Integrating tunable LED‐induced plant responses with novel solar cell technologies for energy‐efficient agrivoltaic systems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The increasing demand for sustainable food production requires innovative solutions that balance productivity, resource efficiency, and environmental impact. Vertical Farming Systems (VFSs) offer a promising approach; however, their high energy consumption remains challenging.

Made in the shade: Leaf responses of native wildflowers to single‐axis photovoltaic solar energy

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As solar energy expands globally, balancing renewable power generation with biodiversity and ecosystem health has become an urgent challenge. This study investigated how native wildflowers respond at leaf level to the unique microclimates created by rotating solar panels in California's Central Valley.
