Contrasting effects of temperature across trophic levels in geothermally warmed soil food webs

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Global warming is altering the structure and dynamics of ecological communities, with significant consequences for soil food webs. Rising temperatures are expected to accelerate metabolic rates in organisms, potentially altering species interactions, and the structure and energetics of food webs.

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 ...

Engaging the public in plant science: Communication facilitators and barriers of scaling up a citizen science campaign

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Volunteers have been involved in nature observations for decades through citizen science initiatives, providing large data sets as well as problem identification that allow a more complete understanding of many natural phenomena. Although communication is a core component in citizen science, the key factors that determine its effectiveness in ...

Mental health benefits of urban green—A systematic review and meta‐analysis of 56 pre‐post control experiments

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Background. Fostering healthy urban living conditions is a critical public health objective. One efficient approach lies in the contact to nature, as numerous studies have shown that urban and peri‐urban natural elements both indoors and outdoors carry a large potential in buffering typical urban threats to mental health.

From experiencing biodiversity to action: How significant life experiences shape values and inspire bird conservation engagement

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Problem and aim: Bird biodiversity loss is a pressing global challenge that requires behavioural engagement, yet the motivational pathways leading to active bird conservation remain underexplored. This study investigates how significant life experiences (SLEs) and environmental values (biospheric, altruistic, hedonistic, egoistic) shape ...

Glucocorticoid‐Induced TNFR‐Related Ligand as a Biomarker for Diagnosis and Severity of Asthma in Children

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates elevated GITRL expression in HDM‐exposed dendritic cells (in vitro), murine asthma models, and pediatric asthma patients, and reveals a direct association between GITRL levels and disease severity in children. ABSTRACT Currently, there are no reliable pediatric biomarkers for assessing the severity of asthma. Therefore, the study
