Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

Climate change and perennial crop production: Evidence of yield impact and adaptation in California
Abstract Perennial crops are economically important. They contribute to food security, providing essential nutrients that are often lacking in annual crops, and provide additional environmental benefits compared with annual crops. Despite their importance, empirical research on the impacts of climate change and adaptation on perennial crops remains ...

Changing Climate Threatens Irrigation Benefits of Maize Gross Primary Productivity in China
Intensive irrigation has been proven to profoundly impact climate through the surface energy budget. However, the impacts of irrigation and climate interactions on gross primary productivity (GPP) in maize cultivated areas remain uncertain.

Trends and controls of terrestrial gross primary productivity of China during 2000–2016
Terrestrial gross primary productivity (GPP) is an important flux that drives the global carbon cycle. However, quantifying the trend and the control factor of GPP from the pixel level to the regional level is still a challenge.

Nothing to See Here: Researching Non‐Recent Child Abuse in Schools and the Politics of Silence
ABSTRACT While institutions, including schools, have responsibilities to protect children from harm, responses to instances of child sexual abuse have often exhibited avoidance and denial. Recent public inquiries in Australia revealed that some institutions, particularly in the Catholic sector, employed a deliberate strategy of silence which was used ...

Seasonality of gross primary production in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil
The approach to carbon sequestration by ecosystems is critical to mitigating the damage and consequences of their effects at regional and global levels. Thus, this study was based on the hypothesis that Atlantic Forest regions have a relevant capacity of atmospheric carbon absorption.

Australia's Migration Strategy: An Effective Response to Migrant Worker Exploitation?
ABSTRACT A series of publicised migrant worker injuries and deaths has drawn attention to the issue of migrant worker exploitation (MWE) in Australia. In response, the Australian Government has included ‘Tackling Worker Exploitation’ as a key area of its Migration Strategy which it introduced in 2023. However, it is unclear how effective the Strategy’s

Scale-dependent effects of forest spatial structure on gross primary productivity across China
Forest spatial structure is a key dimension of ecosystem change, yet its scale-dependent relationships with gross primary productivity (GPP) remain insufficiently understood at large spatial extents.

ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is managed after sinus surgery with topical corticosteroids. Given limited distribution of nasal steroid sprays, patients have the option of either steroid nasal irrigation (SNI) or exhalation delivery system with fluticasone (EDS‐FLU).
