Making space for living and livelihoods in Vietnam: The everyday politics of peri‐urban land use
Preserving agricultural land for rice cultivation in Vietnam is a national priority. Yet in many areas, farmers continue to repurpose rice land for non‐agricultural uses in violation of state regulations. Drawing on the conceptual framework of ‘everyday politics’ (EP), this paper examines this tension through research conducted in two peri‐urban ...

Hunting and Hauora: Pig Hunters and Poaka in Aotearoa New Zealand
ABSTRACT Though invasive, wild pigs (poaka) were fundamental to the survival of both Māori and Pākehā during colonisation, and they remain an essential source of kai (sustenance) today. Utilising a Whanganui case study, 24 participants, semi‐structured interviews, and thematic analysis guided by Kaupapa Māori principles, describe hunters' interests in ...

Development interventions, specifically rural financial services, seek to bring positive changes in traditional rural agrarian contexts. However, short‐sighted interventions can cause long‐term societal, environmental, and economic challenges. Drawing insights from long‐term ethnographic research on the social and economic implications of rural ...

Predicting waterbird habitat changes under future climate scenarios. ABSTRACT Climate change is reshaping ecological communities worldwide, altering species distributions, abundance, and habitat suitability. We modelled the potential distribution of two duck species, the Common Pochard (Aythya ferina) and the Marbled Teal (Marmaronetta angustirostris),

Escaped farmed salmon that mix with wild fish have recently received a good deal of attention. But cod, our next important farmed species, can spread its genetic material without even escaping, since they spawn inside their sea-cages.

Nanofibrous Bio‐Textile From Tilapia Fish Gelatin Prepared Using Alternating Field Electrospinning
Warm‐water fish gelatin nanofibrous nonwovens (W‐FGel “bio‐textile”) are fabricated using alternating field electrospinning (AFES) at productivities up to 5.4 g∙h−1. The average fiber diameter varies in the range of 85 ± 21–240 ± 74 nm depending on the acetic acid–water ratio in the precursor solution.

Linking seaweed farming with coral restoration: Bioremediation boosts early coral survivorship
These findings improve our understanding of seaweed cultivation on coral reefs, highlighting the ways in which farmed seaweed can improve water quality and enhance early coral survival. Linking coral restoration with a commercially viable seaweed industry creates a scalable, market‐driven mechanism to overcome costly post‐settlement survival ...
