Common construction materials do not deter turtles from nesting in roadside habitat
We used a before‐during‐after study to evaluate rock rip‐rap at wetland crossings as a mitigation strategy to deter female turtles from nesting in unsafe roadside habitats. Although females did not nest in the rip‐rap, they continued to nest in roadside habitat, indicating the strategy was unsuccessful and required further research.

Energy and carbon footprint considerations for data‐driven weather forecasting models
Recently introduced data‐driven models often display impressive gains in energy‐efficiency, but such gains usually exclude the cost of training. This study gives orders of magnitude of the energy consumed during the training and compares it to a physics‐based model counterpart. We show that the training is rapidly compensated by the savings made during

Abstract Rapid urbanization has historically been linked to escalating air pollution, yet the environmental consequences of urban shrinkage—a growing global trend of population decline and economic downturn—remain underexplored. While theory suggests shrinkage might alleviate pollution through reduced anthropogenic activities, empirical evidence on the

Abstract The South‐West Indian Ocean (SWIO) displays marked spatial variations in physical forcings, driving in turn distinct seasonal biogeochemical regimes. Mesoscale eddies in the Mozambique Channel drive large‐scale redistribution of nutrients and plankton, while eastern Madagascar waters are highly oligotrophic.

Understanding the human dimensions of wildfire risk at a community level in British Columbia, Canada
Abstract Recent spikes in the number of large and catastrophic wildfires in Canada pose significant risks to the environment and society. Rural and remote communities are especially at risk due to their location in wildfire‐prone areas, remoteness, and limited access or escape routes.

How much biotic nativeness matters across human demographic groups
Abstract Many central concepts of conservation biology—such as nativeness—are structured by ecological and social factors. However, the social consequences of using these concepts to make conservation decisions remain inadequately understood. Some researchers argue that nativeness, rather than acting as an objective proxy for important ecological ...

Results indicate that, an increase in global warming level from 1.5°C to 2°C is likely to induce on the one hand a 3‐fold increase in the frequency of occurrence of dry and warm compound events, and on the other hand a 2‐fold increase in their duration, over West, Central, South‐West, and South‐East Africa, intensifying droughts through reduced ...
