Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

The mental health impacts of climate change across diverse global settings
Journal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.Abstract Climate change represents a growing threat to global mental health, generating traumatic stress exposures directly through climate‐related disasters and indirectly through social networks and pervasive media coverage. This paper provides an overview of the symposium “The Mental Health Effects of Climate Change Across Diverse Global Settings ...

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Caribou forage lichens were present in post‐burn lodgepole pine stands multiple decades before stem‐density was likely open enough to attract wintering caribou. We posit that the prolonged self‐thinning of lodgepole pine after fire may be a greater limiting factor than lichen abundance for habitat recovery in lodgepole pine forests.

Living on the edge: Habitat characteristics of northern myotis at the periphery of its distribution
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Northern myotis selected tall trees with minimal decay, in patches with other roosting options. In our study area, these trees occurred in narrow bands within an agricultural matrix, differing from contiguous forest at the core of the species' distribution. Nevertheless, bats selected the tallest trees in the densest patches available.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Urban expansion has exerted both direct and indirect impacts on natural land and ecosystem services it supports, driven by increasing population and food demand, yet these underlying pathways remain insufficiently distinguished. Here, we quantified the losses of soil conservation services (water erosion regulation and sandstorm prevention) and
