Varied motivations for secondary forest reclearing among landholders make forest persistence challenging

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1943-1956, June 2026.
Abstract Remote sensing studies show that ephemeral forest regeneration is widespread in the tropics, limiting the climate and biodiversity benefits from net increases in forest cover. Socioeconomic, biophysical and landscape variables can help explain the spatial distribution of reforestation reversals.

Multidimensional Poverty and Deprivation in Informal Settlements: A Gendered Perspective From the South African Multidimensional Poverty Index

open access: yesPoverty &Public Policy, Volume 18, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid urbanisation and persistent socio‐economic inequality continue to entrench multidimensional poverty within South Africa's urban informal settlements, with women and female‐headed households experiencing disproportionate deprivation. This study analysed primary household survey data collected in 2023 from 322 households across three ...

Advances in BiOCl‐Based Photocatalysts: From Synthesis, Structural Tailoring to Solar Energy Conversion

open access: yesRare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Semiconductor photocatalysis represents a pivotal frontier in the quest for sustainable energy and environmental remediation. Among the diverse catalytic materials, Bismuth Oxychloride (BiOCl) has emerged as a particularly promising candidate due to its unique layered structure, featuring [Bi2O2]2+ layers intertwined with halogen ions, which ...

Self‐Assembled Conjugated Hollow Fibers for Spongy Monoliths Toward Solar‐Driven Desalination and Hydrovoltaic Electricity Generation

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 35, 23 June 2026.
A self‐assembled conjugated hollow fiber monolith enables simultaneous solar‐driven desalination and hydrovoltaic electricity generation. Metal‐free polymerization produces cross‐linked hollow fibers that entangle into a porous monolith, followed by gradient polypyrrole coating for efficient light absorption and directional water transport.

Wheat's war against stripe rust: Integrating host immunity, genomics and breeding for durable resistance

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), a foundation of global food security, faces persistent threats from stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). The pathogen thrives in cool and humid environments and regularly causes epidemics that lead to severe yield losses.

A Bayesian approach to include Indigenous Knowledge and satellite telemetry data in habitat selection functions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 6, June 2026.
Our work points to the importance of both Western science and IK data sources in models used for conservation and management decisions. We show how the models that include the IK result in more informed predictions and the value of IK when predicting important areas for species that may be relied upon for conservation and management decisions.

Dwelling in a post‐fallout landscape: re‐shaping and sustaining life in a former evacuation zone in Fukushima Habiter après la catastrophe : redonner forme au monde et entretenir la vie dans une ancienne zone évacuée à Fukushima

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 434-455, June 2026.
This article explores the activities of daily life in a village neighbouring the TEPCO nuclear power plant in Fukushima. It argues that one of the potentials of taking a dwelling perspective – a phenomenological approach to living within the ecological and social environments – emerges most compellingly within a polluted landscape.
