Planted grasslands have equivalent or higher arthropod biomass than native grassland important to nesting Sprague's Pipits (Anthus spragueii) early in the breeding season

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Grassland species are declining globally. Sprague's Pipit (Anthus spragueii), a native grassland‐obligate, nests in planted grasslands in some regions. How food resources in planted grassland compare with those in native grassland is important to determine the relative benefits of creating new grassland by seeding cropland with ...

Early results and lessons learned from biomanipulation and chemical restoration of a eutrophic shallow lake

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Over 44% of European lakes fail to meet ecological quality standards, prompting substantial investment in lake restoration to achieve good ecological status. Unfortunately, effects are often short‐lived due to persistent internal phosphorus (P) loading and strong cyprinid‐driven bottom‐up control, which limits water quality ...

Water, pipes and the cholera pathogen: The colonial politics of germs and water infrastructures in the Philippines

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.
This paper examines how the politics of water governance intersected with germ suppression during US colonial rule in the Philippines. Drawing on historical materials and policy documents, we critically trace two interrelated processes of hydroterritorialization through which cholera outbreaks in the early 1900s spurred the production of sanitary ...

What is a Multi‐Ethnic Party and How to Spot a Fake One?

Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Multi‐ethnic parties have been variously defined: as those which do not champion the interests of, or mobilize against, any specific ethnic group; as those with a recognisably cross‐communal leadership or membership; and as those which acquire some distribution of support across groups.
