Chains of Social Sustainability and the Potential of the DPSIR Framework

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For more than 20 years, the Driver‐Pressure‐State‐Impact‐Response (DPSIR) framework has contributed to clarifying causal chains for environmental sustainability issues. This study aims to answer the question of whether the framework can extend its usefulness to structuring social sustainability issues, to which it has not been applied so far ...

Highly Reversible and Safe Zinc‐Metal Anodes Enabled by a Functional and Antibacterial Interfacial Layer

open access: yesSusMat, EarlyView.
A functional artificial interfacial layer, containing special carbonyl oxygen groups, is spontaneously constructed in situ on Zn anode by an etching method with malic acid and achieves the long‐term stability of aqueous ZIBs. The carbonyl oxygen with high nucleophilicity and strong zincophilicity can inhibit the side reactions, while enhancing ion ...

Distance sampling: comparing walked transects and road transects for rock ptarmigan densities and population trends

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
We compared population trends for rock ptarmigan Lagopus muta densities (2003‒2019) derived from walked transects and driven road transects in Mosfellsheiði and Slétta in southwest and northeast Iceland, respectively. The walked transects were laid out according to a random rule.

Suitable habitat of Himalayan wolf in Upper Mustang, Annapurna Conservation Area, Nepal

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Decades ago, the Himalayan wolf Canis lupus chanco, a genetically distinct sub‐species of the gray wolf Canis lupus, faced persecution by local communities in the Nepalese Himalayas. Recently, wolf populations have returned and recolonized, sparking concerns about conflicts over livestock depredation, and emphasizing the urgent need for comprehensive ...

From dusk till dawn: ecoacoustic monitoring reveals wind energy impacts on roding Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Renewable energy is vital for reducing carbon emissions and yet its infrastructure poses challenges to biodiversity. While the impacts of wind power on bats and raptors are well‐studied, the effects on elusive species remain largely unknown. The Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola, a nocturnal forest bird, performs characteristic courtship flights at ...

Ungulate substrate use in fauna passages

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Fauna passages are increasingly constructed at major roads and railways to mitigate the negative effects of infrastructure and traffic on wildlife. The function of such passages depends on design, including the construction materials, soil, and vegetation.

Monitoring wildlife using long‐endurance solar‐electric UAVs

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
This report discusses the effectiveness of using small solar‐electric UAV (uncrewed aerial vehicles) for aerial wildlife monitoring. We review four years of aerial wildlife monitoring missions using a 5.5‐m wingspan, solar‐electric UAV that was equipped with a gimballed IR/RGB camera.
