People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Active outdoor play has been positioned in the literature as an opportunity to address concerns over climate (in)action and the rising trend of disconnection from the outdoors and nature. The objective of this systematic review was to examine associations between active outdoor play and people's connection to nature and/or environmental ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey

Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties
Polymer International, EarlyView.The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...

Permafrost Distribution in the Canadian Rockies: Key Variables Influencing Patch‐Scale Variability
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The spatial distribution of permafrost in mountainous regions is influenced by various factors such as topography, climate, vegetation, and substrate. Despite the existence of comprehensive permafrost maps at national and global levels, they fail to accurately represent the patch‐scale (e.g., < 25 m) permafrost distribution in characteristic ...
