Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Climate mitigation by peatland restoration is suggested, but data from restored forestry‐drained peatlands (FDP) is sparse. Studies using surrogate emission factors from pristine peatlands have indicated a long‐lasting warming effect of restoration of nutrient‐poor FDPs, while restoration‐specific studies are missing.

How the Butler Did It: Investigating Individual City Influence on National Policy
Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In most political systems, cities are not formally part of national policymaking. However, since they are often responsible for the implementation of national policies, they are likely to seek influence on these policies. Existing literature deals mostly with institutionalized policy cooperation and collective municipal organizations. As such,

Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs
Sedimentology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

Bothy busi/yness: Recirculating representation and practice in the Scottish landscape
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.Abstract This paper uses the ‘busi/yness’ of Scottish mountain bothies to explore the agency of representation and its entanglement with practice. In doing so it asks, firstly, what are the material and discursive impacts of a rise in the symbolic value of an object (or in this case a building)?
