Ecology and EvolutionAs global heating and other anthropogenic influences alter tropical marine environments, it is unclear how marine bird populations will be impacted and whether their current roles in tropical marine ecosystems will change. Although marine birds roost and

Rainfall increases conformity and strength of species–area relationships
Ecography, EarlyView.The positive relationship between species richness and area is regarded as one of the few laws in ecology. Therefore, deviations from predictable species–area scaling, evident as high residual variance in species–area curves, are often interpreted as anomalous behaviour.

Decentralized Wind Energy Systems as Catalysts for Urban Resilience: A Design Framework
Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Confronting the escalating extreme weather events (EWEs) and intensifying winds, this study proposes an active response to these issues by exploring decentralized wind energy production for Peng Chau Island, Hong Kong. It integrates theoretical perspectives on energy democracy—empowering local communities through energy autonomy—and urban ...

Conceptualizing and measuring ecological spillover effects from protected areas
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.Protected areas influence their surroundings in a variety of ways. These “spillover effects” can change an area's conservation value and affect its social license. Advanced statistical tools for quantifying protected area spillovers are well established, but underlying assumptions about spillover geography and measurement often lack clarity.

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1903 Introduction During the prosecution of field work in the Hamilton limestones of Michigan, I became aware of the existence of well marked isolated coral mounds or hillocks in the otherwise stratified and almost unfossiliferous limestones. These coral hillocks are particularly well exposed in the vicinity of Alpena, where several quarries have been ...
