Vernacular Futurism: How Persian Language Users Imagine AI

AI &Innovation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Public discourse about artificial intelligence increasingly unfolds through compressed forecasts, moral warnings, and everyday speculation circulating at platform speed. This study examines how Persian language users on X construct and contest AI futures, analyzing a corpus of 4741 posts collected between January 2023 and December 2025, with ...

Spatiotemporal pattern of landscape ecological risk in the Yangtze River Basin and its influence on NPP

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
The rapid development of the social economy and the continuous change in land use have greatly altered the ecological risk of the regional landscape. This study focused on the Yangtze River Basin in China and aimed to examine the temporal and spatial ...

Assessing Ecological Risks at the Landscape Scale: Opportunities and Technical Limitations [PDF]

Ecology and Society, 2005
There is a growing awareness that ecological risk assessments (ERAs) could be improved if they made better use of ecological information. In particular, landscape features that determine the quality of wildlife habitat can have a profound influence on the estimated exposure to stressors incurred by animals when they occupy a particular area.

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Linking community structure and climate vulnerability in desert plant assemblages of southern California

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Desert plant assemblages in southern California provide an opportunity to link patterns of community structure with climate‐driven vulnerability in a rapidly changing environment. California sustains an exceptionally diverse flora of approximately 4300 plant species, with 31% identified as endemic.

Landscape Ecological Risk and Drivers of Land-Use Transition under the Perspective of Differences in Topographic Gradient

Land
Human activities have caused different degrees of land-use change on different topographic gradients, with impacts on the landscape and ecosystem. Effectively preventing and addressing ecological risk (ER) and achieving harmonious coexistence between ...

Hemiparasitic Castilleja presence is correlated with increased plant biodiversity across montane plant communities

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Root hemiparasites form haustoria in belowground roots of hosts to extract nutrients and water from the surrounding hosts. Through parasitic symbiosis, these plants disproportionately affect plant communities relative to their abundance by reducing host size, altering nutrient flow, and eventually increasing local biodiversity.
