Ecosystem engineers and functional dominance: when species loss matters for ecosystem function
Oikos, EarlyView.Understanding when and why species loss affects community function in natural communities remains an open question in ecology. Recent cross‐system analyses have shown that functional dominance is associated with whether species loss matters: in communities dominated by few high‐performing species, lost species contribute little to function.

Trends in Wadden Sea Fish Fauna, Part II: Dutch Demersal Fish Survey (DFS) [PDF]
, 2009 Shallow waters along the North Sea coast provide nursery areas for juveniles of several fish species, including commercially exploited species, and natural habitat for resident species and seasonal visitors. These areas have gone through major changes in

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.

Climate Change and Intertidal Wetlands
Biology, 2013 Intertidal wetlands are recognised for the provision of a range of valued ecosystem services. The two major categories of intertidal wetlands discussed in this contribution are saltmarshes and mangrove forests. Intertidal wetlands are under threat from a

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.This study presents a UAV‐based framework that integrates deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and an enhanced YOLO detector to improve centimetre‐scale benthic organism monitoring. Using hermit crabs in Lake Hamana, a coastal lagoon in Japan, as a case study, the method substantially enhanced small‐object detection performance ...

A Systematic Review of Participatory Science Approaches in K–12 Ecological Monitoring
Science Education, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Participatory science has emerged as a vital educational approach for engaging K–12 learners in authentic scientific inquiry while generating data for ecological monitoring. This systematic review synthesizes 72 empirical studies published between 2006 and 2025 that involved K–12 students in ecological monitoring projects.

From Map Follower to Navigator: Archetypes of Environmental Impact Assessment
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Environmental impact assessment (EIA) scholarship is commonly framed as a tension between efficiency and comprehensiveness paradigms. These paradigms describe a persistent tension but cannot explain how EIA operates through it. Drawing on social systems theory, this analysis traces that operation.

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Over the past decades, the growth in human population and economic activities has led to an increase in maritime traffic. This rise puts additional pressure on marine environments, vessel fuel spills being considered to have a major impact on the ecosystem.
