From quantity to quality: the evolution of forest restoration in the United Kingdom

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over the past century, forest cover in the United Kingdom has increased threefold. However, the pathways, achievements, and shortcomings of this expansion remain underexplored. Objectives This study analyses the drivers, implementation, and legacies of forest restoration in the United Kingdom before and after 1990, which is when ...

Living in the E‐Commerce Countryside: Place Attachment and the Negotiation of Place Change in Rural China

Journal of Community &Applied Social Psychology, Volume 36, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid digitization is transforming rural communities worldwide, yet current scholarship remains dominated by macro‐economic analyses. This study examines the micro‐dynamics of engagement in E‐commerce villages through the lens of lived experience.

Investigating the influence of changing ice surfaces on gravity wave formation impacting glacier boundary layer flow with large-eddy simulations [PDF]

Weather and Climate Dynamics
Mountain glaciers are located in highly complex terrain, and their local microclimate is influenced by mountain boundary layer processes and dynamically induced gravity waves.

Using dendroclimatic analysis of exotic deciduous conifers in an arboretum to document tree growth in response to climate change, Northeast Ohio, USA

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1746-1762, September 2026.
Rising temperatures and wetter conditions in the Midcontinent of North America are influencing climate responses in trees. Dendroclimatological analyses of four exotic deciduous conifer species from Secrest Arboretum, Northeast Ohio help identify past, present and future climate‐tree interactions.

Fire–Moisture Interactions Shape Recovery Trajectories Across Temperate Vegetation Communities

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
Future recovery from fire will be governed not only by characteristics of the fire itself and those of the affected vegetation community, but also by the extent to which these characteristics interact with prevailing hydro‐climatic conditions. Favourable soil moisture conditions post‐fire increase the likelihood that ecosystems will recover to a stable

Effect of a Diabatic Forcing on Downslope Windstorms

Journal of the Meteorological Society of Japan. Ser. II, 1997
The effect of a diabatic forcing on downslope windstorms is analytically investigated in a 2-dimensional steady hydrostatic system. The environmental flow is assumed to have a uniform horizontal velocity with a constant buoyancy frequency. A diabatic forcing is considered in which the material derivative of potential temperature is proportional to ...

Long‐Term Biodiversity–Stability Relationship in Temperate Mountain Forests

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Theories on ecological stability lack the long‐term observational data necessary to comprehend the dynamics of durable and complex ecosystems like forests; consequently, the influence of biodiversity on ecosystem stability remains predominantly unexplained.

On the Tropical Nature of an Intense Mediterranean Cyclone in the Ocean‐Atmosphere System

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 14, 28 July 2026.
Abstract The Mediterranean basin hosts a large number of cyclones every year. Among them, some rare cases named medicanes present similarities with tropical cyclones but their dynamical characteristics are debated. The ocean‐atmosphere dynamics of Medicane Ianos (2020) are studied here through km‐scale fully coupled ocean‐wave‐atmosphere simulations ...
