Characterising fine‐scale habitat associations for range expanding species with limited data: a case study on the West Nile Virus vector, Culex modestus

Oikos, EarlyView.
The ecological and epidemiological consequences of species expanding into new areas are growing concomitantly with climate change. Those aiming to monitor species expanding in range must make optimal use of finite resources to deliver effective surveillance capable of detecting new incursions and range expansions.

How Common are Habitable Planets?

, 2000
The Earth is teeming with life, which, occupies a diverse array of environments; other bodies in our Solar System offer fewer, if any, niches which are habitable by life as we know it.

Particle Dynamics within the Habitable Zone of Extra Solar Planets

, 2005
<p>The orbital stability properties of terrestrial planets within the habitable zone of the star HD4208 (Vogt et al. 2001) is investigated. The habitable zone is determined from Kasting et al.

Digital fire technologies and community networks: Cultivating just sociotechnical practices for living with planetary change

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Fires are expanding in frequency and intensity worldwide due to climate change and land‐use transformations. At the same time, fire often plays a regenerative role in ecosystems. Traditional and cultural practices incorporate fire use for landscape management and landscape renewal. In this complex matrix of fire ecologies, digital technologies

A Whole-planet Model of the Earth without Life for Terrestrial Exoplanet Studies

The Planetary Science Journal
As the only known habitable (and inhabited) planet in the Universe, Earth informs our search for life elsewhere. Future telescopes like the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will soon look for life on rocky worlds around Sun-like stars, so it is ...

Care through cultivation: Indigenous Swidden agriculture as forest care

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper argues that the agricultural practices of Bunong swidden cultivators in northeastern Cambodia constitute relational care for forests that is fundamentally misunderstood, misrecognized, and marginalized by dominant state policies, conservation, and development paradigms. Bringing together care theory, long‐term ethnographic research,

Weaving everyday environmental heritage into modern conservation policy: Insights from Indigenous communities in northern Thailand

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Signatories of global conservation treaties have pledged to support Indigenous peoples' rights and roles in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystems. Movements embracing biocultural concepts (e.g. Indigenous ecological knowledge, cultural ecosystem services) and governance approaches (e.g. sacred natural sites, biosphere reserves) have provided

Formation and Evolution Pathways of Planets. I. Comparison between Theory and Observations

The Astrophysical Journal
Discoveries of numerous exoplanets by various methods enable detailed characterization, including bulk density. Formation and evolution pathways of planets can thus be probed in the mass–radius and mass–density diagrams.

Forest governance and the politics of care: Practices, subjectivities and more‐than‐human‐relations in contemporary conservation regimes in Guaviare, Colombia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Market‐based conservation instruments such as REDD+ and Payments for Ecosystem Services (PES) have been promoted to curb deforestation in the Colombian Amazon. Yet these schemes remain contested, as they advance neoliberal conservation and reproduce gender inequalities.

Bioverse: Assessing the Ability of Direct Imaging Surveys to Empirically Constrain the Habitable Zone via Trends in Albedo

The Astronomical Journal
Will future direct imaging missions such as NASA’s upcoming Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) be able to understand Earth-sized planets as a population?
