The Prevention of Eating Disorders in Australian Adolescents: A Modeled Cost‐Effectiveness Study

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Prevention programs for eating disorders (EDs) have the potential to reduce the onset of these diseases and improve the mental health and well‐being of the general population. However, there is mixed evidence on whether routine implementation of such programs at the population level is cost‐effective.

Effect of simulated warming on leaf functional traits of urban greening plants

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Response and adaptation strategies of plants to the environment have always been the core issues in ecological research. So far, relatively little study exists on its functional traits responses to warming, especially in an urban environment ...

“Passive” Scalecraft as a State Strategy in Post‐Authoritarian Environmental Governance: A Case From South Korea

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study employs a scalar politics framework to unpack how participatory rhetoric operates statecraft in a post‐authoritarian context, thereby illuminating hybrid‐regime behavior along a continuum of environmental governance. An examination of the environmental governance of an ecotourism project in South Korea is performed using ...

From Contingency Management to Transformative Climate Risk Adaptation? Analysis of Private Sector Agency in Navigating Complex Climate Risk Realities

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing complexity and severity of cross‐border climate risks characterised by non‐linear impact chains and deep uncertainty questions the capacity of environmental governance to tackle these problems effectively and in a just manner. To increase the efficiency of climate action, the private sector has been called upon to leverage market ...
