The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Basal and standard metabolic rate (BMR and SMR) are cornerstones of physiological ecology and are assumed to be relatively fixed intrinsic properties of organisms that represent the minimum energy required to sustain life. However, this assumption is conceptually flawed. Many core maintenance processes underlying SMR are temporally partitioned

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Green Is the New Gold: Redefining Opulent Lifestyle Through Organic Food Purchases
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Prior studies based on the Theory of Planned Behavior mostly examined the effects of health and environmental concerns on organic food consumption; however, few addressed the paradoxical relationships in the context of opulent or symbolic decorum.

Green Ambiguity Shapes Sustainable Investing
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Green Exchange‐Traded Funds (ETFs) have experienced strong growth in recent years, reflecting increasing investor attention toward sustainability. However, these funds rely on a wide range of environmental metrics that are often weakly aligned, raising concerns about the meaning of greenness in sustainable investing.

Experimental burn-up analysis of ITU Triga Mark II reactor fuel elements
Nuclear Engineering and DesignIn this study, burn-up values of spent fuels were determined using Non -Destructive Analysis (NDA) with the help of 137 Cs burn-up indicator. Four spent fuel elements (F30, D18, B5 and E14) that burned in the core of the Istanbul Technical University Triga Mark II research reactor over the years were investigated with two different methods. In addition,

A Decision‐Making Model for Implementing Green Technology in Sustainable Building Projects
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Green technology (GT) adoption is pivotal for reconciling environmental stewardship with economic viability in the built environment, particularly in resource‐constrained emerging economies. However, empirical evidence on how specific GT drivers actively mitigate adoption barriers remains scarce.
