Balancing tracks and trees: Assessing railroad impact on Brazilian biodiversity
The Brazilian West–East Integration Railway (FIOL) aims to boost the national economy by improving commodity transport; however, it crosses three of Brazil's most biodiverse and fragile regions: the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Using digitised plant records and land‐use analyses, our study reveals significant vegetation loss within the ...

Fossil Hegemony and Capitalist Realism in Tropic of Orange
ABSTRACT This article examines Karen Tei Yamashita's Tropic of Orange (1997) through the lens of Mark Fisher's influential concept ‘capitalist realism’. Scholars of petrofiction have pointed to a political ambivalence in the representation of fossil fuels, where a better understanding of fossil capital can overwhelm as much as galvanize.

We analyzed a combination of GPS tracking data and nest‐monitoring data from an urban population of an opportunistic rodent specialist, the Common Buzzard (Buteo buteo), to analyze how raptors utilize urban landscapes. Buzzards occupied even extreme habitats such as residential areas for foraging and breeding and benefit from lucrative foraging ...
