Abstract Premise Relationships between flammability and drought tolerance influence vegetation dynamics during fires. A goal of the emerging subdiscipline of pyro‐ecophysiology is to identify ecophysiological traits that determine live fuel flammability, but empirical studies of these relationships are rare.

Acute drought desiccates highly used habitat and drives herbivores into irrigated croplands
Abstract In arid and semiarid regions, extreme, extended droughts are becoming more frequent due to climate change. Drought is driving wildlife to seek out food or water resources where they are not as limited, such as in irrigated croplands. We collected GPS locations from 41 mule deer, a generalist herbivore reliant on primary productivity, within ...

Anthropogenic land‐use change and resource exploitation are driving declines in dung beetle communities, highlighting the need to identify priority habitats and species for conservation. This study assessed taxonomic and functional diversity of dung beetles across a land‐use disturbance gradient and different dung types using dung‐baited pitfall traps.

In February through April 1965, Hoffmann devised several MO tools to explain the regiochemistry of the Diels‐Alder and the preference of the Cope reaction to proceed by the chair rather than boat orientations, when both were possible. The secret lay in secondary orbital interactions that were revealed through qualitative perturbation theory.

Short Abstract This paper expands research on environmental justice in the Pacific Islands to bring forth embodied and sensorial dimensions. Through ethnographic research with women gleaning for food in mangroves in the Solomon Islands, I showcase multi‐scalar and temporal dimensions of environmental (in)justices, highlighting what a bodily orientation

Interlinkages Between Agri‐Food Trade and the SDGs at the Global, Regional and Local Level
ABSTRACT This study is a structured review on the interlinkages between agri‐food trade and the SDGs in the environmental, social and economic dimensions to identify any missed opportunities that agri‐food trade could positively impact the SDGs and provide policy guidance for the missed opportunities at the global, regional and national levels. A great

Abstract The National Water Model (NWM) is a key tool for flood forecasting, planning, and water management. Key challenges facing the NWM include calibration and parameter regionalization when confronted with big data. We present two novel versions of high‐resolution (∼37 km2) differentiable models (a type of hybrid model): one with implicit, unit ...

Unsustainable hunting and habitat loss have led to widespread mammal population declines in Southeast Asia, and evidence‐based conservation is needed to prevent further declines. Robust monitoring of population trends is a key component of evidence‐based approaches.

Ten practical guidelines for microclimate research in terrestrial ecosystems
Abstract Most biodiversity dynamics and ecosystem processes on land take place in microclimates that are decoupled from the climate as measured by standardised weather stations in open, unshaded locations. As a result, microclimate monitoring is increasingly being integrated in many studies in ecology and evolution.

Abstract Objective This research explored arousal levels as a motivating factor for solitude‐seeking. We hypothesized that solitude becomes more desirable when high‐arousal emotions were heightened and individual differences in extraversion and neuroticism would moderate this pattern.
