Operationalizing BioSSbD: A safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework for biorefineries
Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Biorefineries are central to the transition toward a circular bioeconomy; however, their increasing scale and technological heterogeneity, and the integration of biological, chemical, and thermochemical processes introduce complex challenges related to safety, sustainability, and operational reliability. Existing Safe‐and‐Sustainable‐by‐Design

Abstract The focus of this paper is to present an innovative approach to classify land cover, with specific emphasis on Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) monitoring. LULUCF is a sector in greenhouse gas inventory that tracks changes in greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere due to land use and land-use change.

Bridging the Gap: Student Voices on Recruitment and Retention in Ecology
The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, EarlyView.Abstract Students entering ecology and environmental science face a variety of challenges, including limited awareness of career paths, lack of mentorship, and difficulties connecting with peers and faculty. These challenges are often amplified for students from marginalized backgrounds, who may also encounter microaggressions, underrepresentation, and

Mid‐Domain Effect and Wooded Habitat Shape Mediterranean Reptile Communities
Biological Diversity, EarlyView.Analyzing a large number of reptiles observed across protected areas in Central Italy, we tested whether the mid‐domain effect explains hump‐shaped richness–elevation patterns. Species richness was best predicted by the combined influence of geometric constraints and woodland cover, revealing two contrasting species clusters and offering a robust ...
