ON THE BRIGHTER SIDE OF THE NIGHT: Discovering Community and Care in Night Shift Work

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Within the burgeoning attention being paid to the night‐time economy (NTE) in and by cities, the demands and impacts of night work have gathered increasingly scholarly attention. Research has centred on the darker side of these, pointing to workers' precarity and vulnerability. What if we attend also to a ‘brighter side’ of the night and night

ACCOUNTING FOR BIODIVERSITY: Periphery Urbanization, Environmental Conflict, and Spatial Inequality in Monetizing the Value of Nature

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract In terms of mainstream sustainability economics, market‐led initiatives aimed at biodiversity restoration represent a productive, morally conscientious choice. Under this view, efforts in areas such as biodiversity offsetting, net gain, or finance are considered effective tools for preventing or managing environmental degradation.

3D Numerical Simulations of Local Scouring Around Bridge Piers under Non-Uniform Sediment Conditions

open access: yes, 2013
Local scouring caused by the dynamic interaction between flow, bridge piers and the sediment bed is an important threat to engineering structures constructed in alluvial rivers.

Ozone‐driven degradation of sex pheromone in Plutella xylostella: Implications for reproductive communication and mating success

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
In this study, we examined whether realistic ozone concentrations can interfere with sexual communication in the insect pest Plutella xylostella, the diamondback moth. Ozone exposure caused a degradation of pheromone components, leading to significant changes in blend composition and component ratios.

Sediment and solute transport on soil slope under simultaneous influence of rainfall impact and scouring flow

open access: yes, 2010
Soil erosion and nutrient losses with surface runoff in the loess plateau in China cause severe soil quality degradation and water pollution. It is driven by both rainfall impact and runoff flow that usually take place simultaneously during a rainfall ...

Temporal Responses to Warming: Do Wild Herbivores Trade Off Heat, Predators, and Humans?

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We untangled how summer temperature, predators, and humans influenced behavioral responses in two deer species. Both reduced their daily activity level in response to warming, yet only roe deer increased nocturnality to avoid heat. Conversely, fallow deer traded off heat avoidance with predator avoidance.

Availability of a Keystone Plant Resource Reduces Niche Overlap and Drives Distinct Species‐Specific Changes in Niche Breadth Among Small Rodents

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We investigated how three rodent species respond to the seasonal availability of Araucaria angustifolia seeds. While Oligoryzomys spp. increased seed consumption and abundance during seed production, the more insectivorous Akodon paranaensis maintained a broader diet.
