Strengthening urban resilience in China through underground infrastructures management: Addressing global climate challenges with technological solutions

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper explores how climate‐resilient technologies, such as smart grids, digital twins, and self‐healing materials, can enhance urban resilience. It highlights the urgent need for proactive planning, public‐private collaboration, and data‐driven innovation to future‐proof underground infrastructure amid accelerating climate and urban pressures ...

Plant diversity estimates of Mediterranean islands differ among biodiversity databases

Ecography, EarlyView.
Large‐scale biodiversity databases encompass three main types of data for plants, namely single species point occurrences, co‐occurrences in vegetation plots, and checklists for specific areas. Evidence shows that such data types exhibit specific biases, reporting different species assemblages at local scales.

Long unobserved and recently discovered: towards a better understanding of protected‐area species dynamics using curated species lists

Ecography, EarlyView.
Protected areas are designed to shield populations from harmful human impacts. However, in the face of global climate change, a static approach to conservation within these areas is neither feasible nor desirable. One key measure of ecological change at this scale is the arrival of new species and the local extinction of others. Despite strong interest

Shifting baselines increase the risk of misinterpreting biodiversity trends

Ecography, EarlyView.
Ecological studies quantifying the impact of land‐use change on biodiversity may be sensitive to the choice of reference points – or baselines – particularly when sampling across human land‐use gradients and other space‐for‐time comparisons. Much depends on whether the chosen baseline has already undergone shifts in species composition because of ...

‘ukbioprepr': an R package to support reproducible preparation of environmental data for biodiversity modelling in the UK

Ecography, EarlyView.
Biodiversity modelling is essential for explaining and predicting ecological responses to environmental change and assessing progress towards targets in the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (CBD 2022). The UK benefits from rich biodiversity time‐series data and numerous open‐source environmental datasets.

Data integration advances reproductive phenology research across temporal, spatial and taxonomic scales

Ecography, EarlyView.
Climate change is altering plant reproductive phenology; however, a scarcity of long‐term, systematic monitoring hinders our ability to quantify and predict these responses in many parts of the world. We addressed this gap by demonstrating how data integration can be used to produce a synthesised record of reproductive phenology observations (flowering

The EU Cities Mission: A Governance Innovation for Stockholm?

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acknowledging that cities play a key role in climate change mitigation, the European Union (EU) launched the Cities Mission in 2021 to accelerate urban climate action. Intended as a governance innovation, it seeks to stimulate mission‐oriented governance in cities.

From Disruption to Stabilization: A Functional Governance Perspective on the Renewable Energy Transition in Montenegro

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global climate ambitions intensify, the key challenge lies not in setting renewable energy targets but in designing governance systems that can translate them into lasting transformation. The transition management literature has advanced a valuable research agenda for initiating change through niche innovations and participatory arenas in ...

Contextual Effects of National Identity on Willingness to Fight: A Multilevel Analysis Using the World Values Survey

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT National identity is widely assumed to be an important basis for individuals’ willingness to fight for their country; yet, most previous research has focused on individual‐level identity, with limited attention to collective‐level processes.
