Supporting conservationists’ mental health through better working conditions

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Biodiversity conservation work can be challenging but rewarding, and both aspects have potential consequences for conservationists’ mental health. Yet, little is known about patterns of mental health among conservationists and its associated workplace protective and risk factors.

Terror leaves adolescents behind: Identifying risk and protective factors for high‐school completion among survivors of terrorism

open access: yesJournal of Traumatic Stress, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 750-761, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Terror exposure increases the risk of somatic and psychological health problems in survivors. Yet, knowledge of how such exposure affects survivors’ ability to stay in school is lacking. This study examined whether exposure to the 2011 Utøya terrorist attack in Norway impacted survivors’ ability to complete high school.

No home‐field advantage in litter decomposition from the desert to temperate forest

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 5, Page 1315-1327, May 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Litter decomposition rates are determined by the interplay of climate, decomposer organisms and litter quality. It has been suggested that the decomposer community may be locally adapted to litter quality, providing a home‐field advantage (HFA) resulting in accelerated ...

Functional diversity of experimental annual plant assemblages drives plant responses to biological soil crusts in gypsum systems

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 3, Page 488-503, March 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Biological soil crusts (BSC) are complex biotic aggregates comprised of lichens, cyanobacteria, algae and other micro‐organism that are known to differently affect plant development along life cycle by selecting plant functional traits based on species‐specific effects.

Scaling up qualitative research to harness the capacity of lay people in invasive plant management

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 6, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Successful management of invasive plants (IPs) requires the active participation of diverse communities across land tenures. This can be challenging because communities do not always share the views of scientists and managers. They may directly disagree, have alternative views, or be unwilling to manage IPs.

Rainy years counteract negative effects of drought on taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic diversity: Resilience in annual plant communities

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 10, Page 2308-2320, October 2022., 2022
Our results provide important insights into the responses of semiarid annual plant communities under a climate change scenario. Experimental rain exclusion consistently decreased diversity (taxonomic and functional) but to a lesser extent than interannual rain patterns, that result in deep diversity losses during drought events but rapid recovery in ...

El entorno construido en los programas diseñados para promover la actividad física entre las niñas, niños y jóvenes latinos que viven en Estados Unidos y América Latina

open access: yesObesity Reviews, Volume 22, Issue S5, Octubre 2021., 2021
Resumen Prevenir la obesidad entre los jóvenes latinos que viven en Estados Unidos y en países latinoamericanos requiere reconocer la especificidad de los contextos y las interacciones entre actividad física (AF) y entorno construido (EC). El objetivo de este artículo es avanzar en la agenda de investigación sobre el EC y la AF con el fin de prevenir ...
