Framing resilience for river geomorphology: Reinventing the wheel?

open access: yesRivers Research and Applications: an international journal devoted to river research and management, 2019
Resilience is a well‐used term in many disciplines, but inconsistently or little applied in river geomorphology and river science. Recent developments in ecosystem ecology conceptualize resilience as comprising system resistance to, and recovery from ...

Seascape configuration determines spatial patterns of seabird‐vectored nutrient enrichment to coral reefs

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Pelagic‐feeding seabirds deliver nutrient subsidies that enhance the productivity, biodiversity, and resilience of terrestrial and marine ecosystems, particularly in nutrient‐poor tropical environments. However, the biogeophysical variables governing the fluxes of these nutrients within and among interconnected ecosystems remain poorly understood.

A multi‐scale approach to integrating rewilding into agricultural landscapes

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Finding ways to improve the sustainability of modern agriculture by recovering nature in agricultural landscapes is critical for conserving biodiversity and enhancing human well‐being. Rewilding principles could be applied to any type of landscape, which raises the possibility of employing rewilding approaches in agricultural areas while maintaining ...

Mountainous vegetation succession and land use during the last millennium in the Peloponnese (southern Greece): Environmental change and economic development in an isolated periphery

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mediterranean mountainous areas and their valuable natural resources have long been attractive to human societies. The Peloponnese (southern Greece), with its complex topographic and climatic variability, has been the scenery for the development of numerous human communities.
