Hot and cold deserts as eco‐evolutionary arenas for understanding plant resistance to multiple abiotic stressors

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

Greens in Regulation: Biodiversity Strategy Implementation Across the Golf Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although much of the business and biodiversity literature focuses on extractive industries, we turn our attention to the golf industry. Golf courses occupy millions of acres globally, yet biodiversity strategy implementation across the golf industry remains understudied.

Rising, falling, stalling: complex biodiversity trajectories in English rivers

Ecography, EarlyView.
Freshwater ecosystems face intense anthropogenic pressures. Yet in parts of Europe, including the UK, studies have documented widespread increases in macroinvertebrate diversity following investments to improve water quality. More recent analyses, however, suggest that these gains have slowed, plateaued, or even reversed. Despite increasing recognition

Modeling climate adaptive habitat connectivity for conservation planning in Colombia

Ecography, EarlyView.
To remain effective under global change, conservation decisions must anticipate shifting climates, species responses to climate change and the dispersal pathways needed to track suitable climate. Yet most assessments of ecological connectivity do not consider how the landscape will change, or, if they do, they only consider a single future time point ...

Production of bioethanol from residual barley and utilization of fermentation co‐products in animal nutrition

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract The search for sustainable alternatives for bioethanol production has encouraged the valorization of agro‐industrial residues. This study evaluated the use of residual barley as a feedstock for bioethanol production and as a potential ingredient for ruminant feed.

Sol–gel synthesis of ZnO@SiC heterojunctions from photovoltaic waste for enhanced paracetamol photodegradation

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Exponential growth in photovoltaic energy production has created a critical environmental challenge: managing silicon carbide (SiC) waste from wafer cutting processes. This study addresses this challenge by transforming photovoltaic waste into high‐value photocatalytic materials.

Review of aluminum solubility behavior in the Hanford 200 South West Area tanks targeted for retrieval

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract The behavior of aluminum‐bearing phases in tank wastes from the southwest quadrant of the Hanford Site's 200 West Area primarily determines solids accumulation, retrieval performance, and downstream processability. This review synthesizes historical tank characterization data, laboratory dissolution studies, and process‐relevant observations ...

Carbon dioxide emissions and vulnerability to climate change in Africa: How public goods moderate policy syndromes

Environmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and climate vulnerability are major concerns affecting sustainable development in Africa. This study assesses how the provision of public goods moderates the effects of policy syndromes on CO2 emissions and vulnerability to climate change in the continent.
