Large, rugged and remote: The challenge of wolf–livestock coexistence on federal lands in the American West

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The expansion of grey wolves (Canis lupus) across the western United States, including on public lands used for extensive livestock grazing, requires tools and techniques for reducing wolf–livestock conflict and supporting coexistence. We examined approaches used on forested lands managed by the U.S.

Bridging the gap between science, policy and stakeholders: Towards sustainable wolf–livestock coexistence in human‐dominated landscapes

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract While the return of wolves (Canis lupus) to many European countries is a conservation milestone, the negative impacts are unevenly distributed across society, placing high pressure on livestock grazing systems. For this perspective, scientists from diverse disciplines and geographical backgrounds reflect on the state of livestock–wolf ...

Indigenous theory as epistemic ground for environmental scholarship and practice

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental sciences increasingly call for the inclusion of Indigenous knowledges. Yet this inclusion is frequently reduced to datasets, management tools or cultural insight, while systematically disavowing the sovereignty, law and epistemological authority that underpins Indigenous knowledge systems.

Hurdles to overcome to achieve biostimulant‐driven, low chemical input crop production

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Crop production requires considerable chemical inputs that result in significant greenhouse gas emissions and other environmental costs. Biostimulants are natural agents, such as microorganisms or seaweed, applied to plants and soil to stimulate plant growth and reduce chemical inputs. Biostimulant use is rapidly increasing globally, but hurdles remain,

Citizen science informs demand‐driven breeding of opportunity crops

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Amid global challenges of food insecurity, poor nutrition, and climate change, neglected crops like amaranth are gaining renewed attention. We studied farmers' preferences for amaranth varieties across diverse geographical contexts to guide targeted breeding.

Harmonising digitised herbarium data to enhance biodiversity knowledge: Major steps towards an updated checklist for the flora of Greenland

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Herbaria worldwide hold centuries of plant data that are key to understanding and protecting biodiversity; however, even with increased digital access, differences in plant naming systems make it difficult to compare records. We developed a semi‐automated workflow that standardises species names and organises herbaria records from multiple institutions

Could botanic gardens use the Plant Treaty to regulate plant exchanges?

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Current international laws surrounding accessing and sharing biological materials in botanic gardens is limiting their capacity to conserve, research, educate and raise public awareness about biodiversity. We set out an argument for using the access and benefit sharing arrangements of the International Treaty for Plant Genetic Resources for Food and ...
