‘Should’ and ‘can’ active restoration be used in biodiversity offsets? Stakeholder perspectives from New South Wales, Australia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite their controversial nature, biodiversity offsets are often used as a regulatory tool to counterbalance the impacts of land clearing on biodiversity. Offsets usually aim to achieve no net loss (NNL) of biodiversity through protection and/or restoration of habitat.

Bridging the political ideology climate gap through connecting individuals to nature

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human's abstraction from nature has created a situation where the impacts of an array of environmentally detrimental behaviours are realised across scales, challenging the resilience of at‐risk communities. Complicating this divide is the political ideology gap on issues including nature connectedness, environmental concerns, and climate ...

Forecast‐Error Diagnostics in Neural Weather Models

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Deep learning weather prediction models enable efficient forecast‐error diagnostics through auto‐differentiation and low computational cost. We apply grid‐point relaxation and gradient‐based error sensitivity to identify key forecast‐error sources. Results show that medium‐range forecasts in the midlatitudes benefit most from relaxing the stratosphere ...
