Automatization of multistep sample preparation for microplastics monitoring in aquatic environments
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Microplastics (MP) have been found in every environmental compartment in urban and remote areas. Although their ubiquity is widely recognized, the lack of harmonized protocols for sampling, sample preparation, and particle identification/quantification hinders comparability among studies.

Environment International, 2020 While macroplastics have been washing up on Southern Ocean islands for decades and microplastics have been found in seabirds from the region since 1960, there are still relatively few quantitative data on the amount of plastic pollution, especially with ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Phenology plays a central role in regulating energy flow and nutrient cycling, yet remains insufficiently integrated into biodiversity–ecosystem functioning frameworks. This gap is especially relevant in strongly seasonal systems, where community‐wide synchrony in leaf litterfall may arise from either temporal niche differentiation among species or ...

Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 247-262., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.
