Evaluating the vulnerability of Tetracentron sinense habitats to climate-induced latitudinal shifts. [PDF]
Temperature was the most important factor affecting the distribution of Tetracentron sinense. With global warming, the range of T. sinense suitable areas will show a shrinking trend. Ex situ conservation measures could be taken to preserve its germplasm resources.

Abstract Social enterprises are frontrunners in social innovation, yet our understanding of how they can scale their social impact beyond local, contained contexts remains nascent. To transform the institutional environment that gives rise to social problems, social enterprises must mobilize actors with divergent interests, values, and beliefs to ...

Non‐Uniqueness, Symmetries and Invariance of Thermal History Modelling in Sedimentary Basins
This paper approaches non‐unique inverse problems by generating a representative ensemble of all possible solutions using the concept of symmetry. In the context of basin modelling, a symmetry is any manipulation of a forward model's parameters (e.g., thermal history) that leaves the model output (e.g., downhole vitrinite reflectance) unchanged ...

Contested heritage landscapes for Arabic language learning in a postcolonial France
Abstract This article analyzes the contested and multiple meanings of “heritage” that emerge for advanced Arabic language learners in a postcolonial France. A linguistic life histories approach reveals a fraught duality of privileged access and exclusionary adversity for heritage students of Arabic.

ABSTRACT Pastoralism worldwide faces a complex landscape of increased pressures and exclusion. Beyond ecological and economic challenges, pastoralists suffer eroding cultural identity, limited generational renewal, and political marginalization. Yet pastoral livelihoods are increasingly recognized as stewards of sustainable futures and amongst the best

Climate impact storylines for assessing socio-economic responses to remote events
Quote: “What I hear, I forget. What I see, I remember. What I do, I understand.” (Xunzi, ∼300 BCE).Modelling complex interactions involving climatic features, socio-economic vulnerability or responses, and long impact transmissions is associated with ...
