Some love them, others hate them: Understanding farmers' tree planting decisions in Scotland

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Agroforestry is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural land use system with potential to sequester carbon, create and repair habitats, enhance biodiversity and offer environmental and socio‐economic benefits, including improved agricultural productivity.

Remote sensing and citizen science for habitat mapping: A machine learning approach to lowland heathland in Surrey, UK

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract In a time of extensive global biodiversity loss, conservation efforts increasingly rely on high‐resolution, accurate, up‐to‐date habitat maps to guide decision‐making and strategic interventions. Many products have been developed in response, using machine learning (ML) methods to automate habitat classification, often relying on satellite ...

Caring with forests: Human and more‐than‐human care in forest occupations in Germany

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Drawing on ongoing ethnographic and participatory action research within forest occupations in Germany, this paper develops the concept of ‘caring with forests’ to theorise the mutual, multidimensional relationships of care that emerge between humans and more‐than‐human beings in environmental protest settings.

Perceptions of nativeness shift quite rapidly over time

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The spread of non‐native species has emerged as one of the most pressing challenges for conservation and ecosystem management. Yet attitudes towards species change, making it possible for non‐native species to be perceived as native after some time.

Impact of Waste‐Derived Slate Dust on Structural, Thermal, and Thermomechanical Behavior of Recycled Poly(Ethylene Terephthalate)

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
This study investigates the use of waste slate dust as a filler in recycled PET. Incorporating up to 20 wt% slate dust caused no filler‐induced molecular degradation, increased the crystallization temperature, thermal conductivity, and storage modulus. ABSTRACT Recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) is widely considered a sustainable alternative to

Effects of Multiple Mechanical Recycling Loops on the Material Properties of Liquid Silicone Rubber

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical recycling of liquid silicone rubbers was investigated by grinding LSR production waste to small pieces, which are then used as filler in new products with varying percentages of recycled content. Four consecutive reprocessing cycles showed that multiple mechanical recycling loops are possible without significant loss of material performance.

Single Versus Double Screw Extrusion: Impact on Mechanical Performance and Crack Resistance for a Virgin, Recycled, and Blended Polypropylene

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Schematic overview of the study approach and key findings. ABSTRACT To evaluate the influence of extrusion on material performance, three processing methods, single extrusion (1x Ex), double extrusion (2x Ex), and double screw compounding (C), were investigated for virgin polypropylene (vPP), recycled PP (rPP), and a blend containing 10% rPP (rPP10 ...
