Regional Sustainability Assessment Under Risk and Uncertainty: A Water–Energy–Food Based Framework
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Regional sustainability assessment requires integrated structures that can examine the interactions between Water–Energy–Food (WEF) systems, socio‐economic risk conditions, and performance outcomes under uncertainty. This study proposes a multidimensional framework that combines a suitability index, composite sustainability indicators ...

Size variation of an herbivorous insect affects host plant damage: Mechanisms behind the effect
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Intraspecific trait variation can strengthen or weaken species interactions in ecological communities. A mechanistic understanding of how intraspecific variation affects species interactions will help identify general rules about when intraspecific variation strengthens
