Protected areas on international borders show uneven conservation outcomes
Abstract Border protected areas (BPAs) are national protected areas that are immediately adjacent to a country's border or span two or more countries; they are characterized by distinctive opportunities and pressures. They play a critical role in protecting carbon‐rich ecosystems, conserving endangered biodiversity, reducing cross‐border environmental ...

Abstract This study investigates the electrochemical decolorization of waste acid dye baths and evaluates their potential reuse in subsequent textile dyeing processes. Four different anode materials (iron, aluminum, stainless steel and graphite) were examined to optimize color removal efficiency and assess the influence of electrochemically generated ...

Prioritizing site groups for intrinsic biodiversity assets using complementarity and not just rarity
Conservation practitioners rightfully focus on at‐risk species when valuing biodiversity assets and prioritizing spatial units. We compared and combined numbers of at‐risk species with four other community metrics using surveys of vascular plants at wetlands in a preserve network in Illinois, USA.

The aesthetic sublime of megaproject structures: A framework and a research agenda
Abstract The physical structures of megaprojects—such as mega‐canals, metros, railway lines, bridges, tunnels, and iconic opera houses—hold a profound capacity to generate aesthetic experiences with enduring societal impact. Yet, research on megaprojects has predominantly focused on functionality and economic rationale with aesthetics being pushed to ...

ABSTRACT The Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) is a globally distributed nonnative species that threatens native salmonids in coldwater streams. Understanding the factors regulating Brook Trout densities in coldwater refugia is critical to effective management, so we investigated (a) fine‐scale drivers of Brook Trout abundance and (b) factors ...
