Food plant diversity in a rapidly changing world

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Diversity in food plants is essential to human and planetary health. On farms, in diets, and in many other areas of food systems, this diversity has undergone enormous change globally, including significant decline. We describe major trends in how food plant diversity has been changing, note the responses from conservation communities, highlight gaps ...

Multiscale numerical sensitivity simulations of a mesoscale gravity‐wave event

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
High‐resolution WRF simulations of the February 14–15, 1992 STORM‐FEST event show that mesoscale gravity‐wave genesis occurs via geostrophic adjustment within an upper‐level unbalanced jet, while wave ducting governs maintenance. High‐resolution (1 km), improved physical parameterization, and targeted sensitivity simulations demonstrate that upstream ...

Paradigms and Principles for Integrating Nature Technology Data: Challenges, Opportunities, and Next Steps in Real‐World Biodiversity Monitoring

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We propose a set of paradigms (survey design, tip and cue, validation, consilience, interpolation and extrapolation, and data fusion) and prioritize a set of principles (metadata standards, use rights and licensing, scientific rigor, and utility) as the foundations of an actionable framework for nature technology data integration. We then analyze seven

Does Economic Growth Drive Equitable Water and Sanitation Access? Assessing Inequality Reduction Across 64 Nations

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines whether economic growth reduces inequalities in access to water and sanitation across 64 countries over an average period of 13.5 years. Drawing on disaggregated data by income quintiles and rural–urban location, and employing ordinary least squares (OLS), two‐stage least squares (2SLS), and Seemingly Unrelated Regression

Three new species of Echinoderes (Kinorhyncha) from the Bay of Campeche, Gulf of Mexico

The European Zoological Journal
Recent ecological studies from the southern Gulf of Mexico (GoM) provided evidence for the presence of several undescribed kinorhynch species. In the present contribution three new species of Echinoderes from these samples are described.

Competition Policy and Achieving Sustainable Development Goal 1 (No Poverty): The Role of Mergers and Acquisitions Adjudications in South Africa

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT South Africa faces persistently high poverty and inequality alongside a highly concentrated economic structure, raising questions about whether merger control, especially public‐interest provisions, can contribute to poverty reduction. However, empirical evidence directly linking merger adjudication outcomes to poverty remains limited.

Regional Sustainability Assessment Under Risk and Uncertainty: A Water–Energy–Food Based Framework

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regional sustainability assessment requires integrated structures that can examine the interactions between Water–Energy–Food (WEF) systems, socio‐economic risk conditions, and performance outcomes under uncertainty. This study proposes a multidimensional framework that combines a suitability index, composite sustainability indicators ...
