Habitat Fragmentation Research Brief

, 2022
This outline brief was originally a short plan for a habitat fragmentation project for a government department in 2016. After various refinements and contributions from workshops, the brief grew in size. The information here is based on various literature and guidance from NRW in Wales and Natural England. I used the QGIS plugin 'FragScape' for some of

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

The tiger salamander as a promising alternative model organism to the axolotl for fracture healing and regenerative biology research

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Scientists have been captivated by the ability to regenerate, focusing on uncovering the mechanisms of epimorphic regeneration and applying them to human medicine. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has become the most intensively studied model in tetrapod regeneration research, particularly concerning limb regeneration.
