ABSTRACT Smallholder farmers in coastal Cameroon face accelerating soil degradation and climate variability. However, the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices (SAPs) remains uneven. This study examines how information behavior and motivational objectives shape SAP adoption in the Tiko municipality using a cross‐sectional survey of 122 ...

Finding Plankton: A Marine Science Scavenger Hunt for Local Communities
Abstract At a time of increasing political polarization and rapidly accelerating climate change, it is important to build public knowledge and empathy toward nature to foster behavioral changes; however, addressing a knowledge deficit can be insufficient to affect these changes.

A novel approach for in situ benthic habitat characterization
Abstract Habitat heterogeneity is a key driver of temporal and spatial variability of subtidal marine benthic biodiversity. However, this makes it a challenging environment in which to measure and quantify the factors driving biodiversity in a consistent manner.

Abstract Assigning taxonomic identity and thus assessing taxonomic diversity in gelatinous zooplankton is challenging due to their fragility and difficult preservation. Formalin fixation compromises DNA integrity, while flash‐freezing, ethanol, and acetone preservation affect morphological features. In this study, we developed a methodological protocol

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...
