Distilling food web dynamics: top–down and bottom–up drivers of extinction and trophic cascades

Oikos, EarlyView.
Quantifying population dynamics is a fundamental challenge in ecology and evolutionary biology, particularly for species that are cryptic, microscopic, or extinct. Traditional approaches rely on continuous representations of population size, but in many cases, the precise number of individuals is unknowable.

Meteorological versus spatial drivers of the spatial synchrony of forest insect pest outbreaks in North America

Oikos, EarlyView.
Spatial synchrony of population fluctuations has major consequences for the impacts of forest insect pest outbreaks at regional scales. We tested the predictions that the strength and drivers of this synchrony would differ among species according to their dispersal abilities and feeding guilds.

Context, Culture, and Governance in an Informal Community in Ghana: A Case Study for Community‐Based Adaptation in Public Administration

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In its quest for development, Ghana must address socioeconomic challenges not of its own making, use resources it does not have, and apply externally imposed technocratic knowledge‐based solutions largely incompatible with Ghanaians' lived experience.

Hunting motivations, behaviour and forest access: Characterising wildlife hunting practices in a multi‐ethnic, forested landscape of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Unsustainable hunting practices can alter population dynamics, driving biodiversity declines, which leads to ‘empty forests’. Understanding hunting behaviour, including motivations for hunting and relationships with market drivers, and access to hunting grounds are important to develop affirmative policies to stem biodiversity loss.
