Aphid and endosymbiont sensitivity to heatwaves is misaligned across life stages

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Aphids depend on the obligate symbiont Buchnera aphidicola, which may constrain thermal tolerance. Using a factorial heatwave experiment, we exposed nymphs and adults to moderate or extreme temperatures and measured fitness and symbiont responses.

Metabolome Diversity Enhances Resistance of Intertidal Clams to Thermal Stress

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Meretrix species are widely distributed intertidal bivalves in China with significant ecological and economic importance, which are sensitive to thermal stress. Our results showed that thermal environments of clam habitats shaped metabolome diversity, which can enhance the resistance of intertidal clams to thermal stress.

Socially Responsible Investors and Corporate Resistance to Climate Disruptions: Agents of Change or Passive Participants?

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is a global challenge with far‐reaching implications for firms and capital markets. This study examines whether ownership by socially responsible investors (SRIs) enhances firms' resilience to climate shocks. Focusing on transition and physical climate risks, we analyse whether SRI ownership reduces firms' stock return ...

Climate Change Commitment: As Agency Theory Pertains to Engaging Supply Chains in Science‐Based Targets

open access: yesAccounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We explore how corporates working towards valid Science‐based Targets engage with their suppliers to collect Scope 3 emissions data. This is important to enable such corporates to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve net‐zero by 2050. Utilising agency theory, we analyse 1402 responses from the 2021 CDP climate change survey.

The dual crisis: Climate change simultaneously drives pollinator decline and pest outbreaks

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Climate change acts as an asymmetric ecological filter, favouring r‐selected pest traits (rapid reproduction, generalism) while disadvantaging K‐selected pollinators. For every 1°C of warming, bee species richness declines ~25% since the 1990s, while pest‐induced crop losses increase by 10%–25%. A network‐centric approach integrating climate‐responsive
