Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Climate change is contributing to vegetation changes that threaten life support systems. Yet, inherent climatic variability and past and present human actions—such as clearing, burning and grazing regimes—also alter vegetation and complicate understanding of vegetation change. Australian ecosystems exemplify such complexity.

Learning from normal work in complex sociotechnical system—Case in midstream operation
Process Safety Progress, EarlyView.Abstract The complexity of vessel‐to‐single‐buoy mooring operations conducted in midstream requires interventions and adaptability from workers to maintain operational continuity, given variability in normal work conditions. However, the same adaptability needed to operate in such a complex and dynamic environment can also lead to undesirable system ...
