The Baltimore Community Weather Station Network: Filling the Urban Measurement Desert
Abstract Quantification and understanding of how heat, rainfall, and air quality vary within cities are needed to identify the area with the worst conditions, develop solutions to extreme weather, and assess the impact of proposed policies. However, neighborhood‐level variability is not well quantified because there are few environmental measurement ...

Our results demonstrate that interactive effects of clonal reproduction and intraspecific density are important contributors to plant demography and that high local density increases the negative impact of drought on population growth rates. Abstract Making predictions about the persistence of plant populations under climate change requires explicitly ...

Avian Infrastructures: Urban Experiments and the Makings of a Seabird ‘Hotel’
Short Abstract The paper focuses on the relationship between infrastructure, animal architectures and avian geographies to explore the development of ‘kittiwake hotels’—artificial nesting structures for black‐legged kittiwakes. Drawing on a collaboration between cultural geography and marine ecology that moves between the United Kingdom and Norway, the
