Predicting global habitat suitability and invasion risks of the red gum lerp psyllid Glycaspis brimblecombei under current and future climates

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Ecological niche modelling identified highly suitable habitats for Glycaspis brimblecombei across tropical, subtropical and temperate regions. Future climate projections indicate a moderate contraction of suitable areas, with persistence of core climatic suitability. Model performance was robust (AUC = 0.880; TSS = 0.634; CBI = 0.803), with temperature

From Loss to Transformation? Towards Pluralistic and Politicised Agrarian‐Climate Futures

open access: yesAsia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how actors perceive and anticipate future states of the world is gaining traction in climate change governance scholarship and related calls for sustainability transformations. However, smallholder farmers, indigenous groups, and local communities, who are expected to bear disproportionate burdens of loss and damage from climate ...

The Construction of an Environmental Villain: A Discourse Analysis of Upland Maize Farming in Thailand

open access: yesAsia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the mid‐2010s, Thai public discourse has villainised upland maize cultivation in northern Thailand for deforestation and environmental degradation through the popular imagery of bald mountains. The attention has prompted a new wave of land‐use interventions urging upland smallholders to replace maize with trees and perennials.

The pantropical biodiversity footprint of oil palm

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Although oil palm expansion is a main driver of tropical deforestation, this is the first study that integrates species‐specific habitats to assess oil palm's biodiversity footprint globally. We find that 4.5% of forest‐dependent species lost more than 1% of their potential habitats to oil palm; São Tomé and Sri Lanka have the highest per‐hectare ...
