Water in Extrasolar Planets and Implications for Habitability
Space Science Reviews, 2017 Exoplanet detection missions have found thousands of planets or planet candidates outside of the Solar System—some of which are in the habitable zone, where liquid water is possible at the surface. We give an overview of the recent progress in observations of water-rich exoplanets, detection of water in the atmosphere of gas giants and less-massive ...

Habitable Snowballs: Temperate Land Conditions, Liquid Water, and Implications for CO$_2$ Weathering
, 2019 Habitable planets are commonly imagined to be temperate planets like Earth, with areas of open ocean and warm land. In contrast, planets in snowball states, where oceans are entirely ice-covered, are believed to be inhospitable.

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Ecologists recognise that we live on an increasingly human‐dominated planet, yet most of the field's foundational concepts remain essentially biophysical, with little reference to human society. There are few better examples of this divide between ecological and social theory than the niche concept.

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Biodiversity is vital for life on earth but faces many anthropogenic pressures. Mitigating these pressures and improving biodiversity status requires understanding the worldviews and values of actors involved in conservation or responsible for creating pressures on biodiversity.

Tidal Constraints on Planetary Habitability
, 2009 We review how tides may impact the habitability of terrestrial-like planets. If such planets form around low-mass stars, then planets in the circumstellar habitable zone will be close enough to their host stars to experience strong tidal forces.

The Exoplanet Population Observation Simulator. I - The Inner Edges of Planetary Systems
, 2018 The Kepler survey provides a statistical census of planetary systems out to the habitable zone. Because most planets are non-transiting, orbital architectures are best estimated using simulated observations of ensemble populations.

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract The management of protected areas is often portrayed as an enterprise guided by objective knowledge and technical criteria, a claim that situates conservation practitioners in positions of power relative to other actors in these spaces. Challenging these claims of objectivity by exploring conservation practitioners' subjective views is vital ...

Characterizing Drivers of Asia's Black Elephant Disaster Risks
Earth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Asia has the fastest growing population and economy, but it is also the most disaster‐prone region in the world. Resilience to disaster impacts from natural hazards will be key to the long‐term sustainability of this rapidly growing region. The first step to building resilience is to identify the key threats that this region faces. We describe
