Thermal niche breadth shapes regional elevational range sizes of tropical‐like mountain stream insects: evidence for Janzen's tropical mountain passes hypothesis

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
The core of Janzen's tropical mountain passes hypothesis is that relatively stable annual temperature variation limits species' thermal tolerances breadth, which, in combination with steep elevational temperature gradients, constrains the elevational distributions of these species. In addition to thermal niche breadth, elevational ranges were shaped by

Nested Carbon Governance in Southeast Asia: Towards Just Nature‐Based Solutions?

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nature‐based solutions (NbS) have gained prominence as an integrated approach to addressing climate change and biodiversity loss while supporting sustainable development. Yet, their implementation across Southeast Asia remains fragmented and often contested.

Governing Agriculture or Farmers? Problem Representations of Biodiversity and Farm Loss in Swedens Strategy for the Common Agricultural Policy

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT European Union (EU) strategies for food supply address challenges of increasing, or at least maintaining, today's level of agricultural food production. At the same time, European farmland biodiversity continues to deteriorate despite considerable investments in measures to promote environmentally friendly farming practices.

A Geographic Information System (GIS)–CRiteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation (CRITIC) Framework for Selecting Solar Photovoltaics Sites: A Case Study

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A novel framework integrating environmental constraints, topography, infrastructure accessibility, and solar irradiation was developed to identify optimal utility‐scale solar photovoltaics (PV) sites in Lithuania. Western and central Lithuania showed the highest suitability for future solar PV expansion.

Wildfire Emissions From European Boreal Fuels: Effects of Fuel Type and Moisture Content

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing severity of wildfires poses significant challenges through the release of greenhouse gases and other harmful gases and particles. Although field measurements exist, there is a lack of systematic data collection to understand the influence of moisture content on the particle and gas emissions of boreal fuels, particularly for ...

Rethinking Environmental Impact Assessment for nature positive development

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Achieving “nature positive” development within existing regulatory frameworks will be challenging. Halting and reversing biodiversity loss requires protection, restoration, and enhancement of ecosystems alongside a fundamental shift in how biodiversity is valued and quantifiable improvements are assessed.

Tectono‐Sedimentary Evolution of the Neogene İnegöl Basin (NW Anatolia): Constraints on Transtensional Basin Development at the Junction of the Western Anatolian Extensional Province and the North Anatolian Fault Zone

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
The study outlines the tectono‐sedimentary evolution of the İnegöl Basin in north‐western Anatolia. Basin formation was controlled by interacting extensional and strike‐slip fault systems linked to uplift of the Uludağ Massif. Terrestrial sedimentation from the Miocene to Pleistocene is reconstructed using abundant fossil mammal assemblages that ...

Independent leaf and root responses to autumn freezing in perennial herbs: Insights from cutting and transplant manipulations

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
In this study, we compared two sampling approaches to assess autumn freezing resistance. Our goal was to determine whether the commonly employed cutting method, which disrupts root‐tissue connectivity, provides a valid measure of true freezing resistance.
