Reduced size of larvae and small fish linked to warming and reduced prey density

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Body size is an integrative trait that has declined across many ecological assemblages in the last decades. Changes in body size of early life stages and small‐bodied fish are driven by complex interactions between size‐dependent mortality, and temperature‐ and food‐dependent growth, and can have consequences for recruitment to the adult stock and food

Spatio‐temporal dynamics of ringed seal density and habitat use in the Arctic's Last Ice Area

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The Arctic is warming at approximately four times the global rate, driving widespread decline in sea ice extent, thickness, and seasonal duration. The ecological consequences of these rapid changes remain poorly understood within the Last Ice Area, a region that includes northern Ellesmere Island and the northwest of Greenland, projected to retain ...

Disentangling functional spaces: a multidimensional framework for ecology and conservation

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Trait‐based ecology often relies on a single functional space, where diverse traits are combined into one multivariate framework. While convenient, this approach risks masking ecological strategies because variance is often dominated by a few traits, such as body size.

Spatial variation and predictors of plant species' intrinsic climate sensitivity across the conterminous United States

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding how species' sensitivity to climate varies spatially across their ranges and elucidating the important causes is essential for identifying ecologically meaningful geographic units and conservation actions for biodiversity. In this study, we estimated climatic occurrence niches of vascular plants to explore the spatial variation in species'

How Multiple Streams Influence Agenda‐Setting for Water Reuse in Swiss Substates

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As climate change creates significant challenges for both the environment and society, potential mitigation and adaptation solutions are widely discussed. Yet, neither challenges nor their potential solutions automatically reach the political agenda or lead to a policy decision.

Environmental Statecraft, Fragmented Authoritarianism, and Technocratic Governance: The Structure and Agency of China's Local Environmental Politics

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local environmental politics in China is often said to be dominated by state‐controlled modes of multi‐level governance. However, top‐down governance is embedded within and transformed by local politics, adding complexity to governance practices and environmental outcomes.

Co0.05‐Bi2S3/CF Photothermal Layer Integrated With Freeze‐Cast Alumina Vertical Channels for Efficient Interfacial Solar Desalination

open access: yesElectron, EarlyView.
A bicomponent solar‐driven interfacial evaporator made of Co0.05‐Bi2S3/carbon foam (CF) (photothermal material) on a porous alumina substrate prepared by freeze‐casting, having vertically aligned microchannels and low thermal conductivity (k = (1.14 ± 0.06) W m−1 K−1), was explored.

Effects of hybrid metal oxide nanoparticles on the tribological and emission attributes of algae‐derived biofuel in compression ignition engines

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract The growing demand for sustainable fuels has accelerated the development of algae‐derived biodiesel for compression‐ignition engines. In this study, Chlorella vulgaris methyl ester (AME) exhibited physicochemical properties comparable to diesel and satisfied ASTM D6751 fuel quality requirements, making it suitable for blending.
