Blowin' in the Wind: Mapping the Dispersion of Metal(loid)s From Atacama Mining. [PDF]
Abstract The Atacama Desert’s naturally elevated metal(loid)s pose a unique challenge for assessing the environmental impact of mining, particularly for indigenous communities residing in these areas. This study investigates how copper mining influences the dispersion of these elements in the wind‐transportable fraction (<75 μm) of surface sediments ...

¿Libre de la Maleza Estatista? Assessing Neoliberal Promises and Water Markets in Chile
Abstract Neoliberal approaches to water governance, pioneered in Chile in the 1980s, are reappearing today on the centerstage of the water policy debate. While advocates claim that strong property rights, limits on government authority, and water markets can enhance environmental sustainability, efficiency, neutrality, and equity in the distribution of

Building a feral future: Open questions in crop ferality
Given the rapidly increasing drought and temperature stresses associated with climate change, innovative approaches for food security are imperative. One understudied opportunity is using feral crops—plants that have escaped and persisted without cultivation—as a source of genetic diversity, which could build resilience in domesticated conspecifics. In

Assessing social perceptions of rewilding approaches in Spain using traditional domestic livestock
Livestock rewilding (LR) is the use of herbivorous livestock species to restore ecological functions and trophic complexity in abandoned agricultural landscapes. We assess societal attitudes and awareness of LR in Spain through a questionnaire. Respondents supported LR, but only on the condition of imposing minimum hazards to people and crops.

Multiple compensatory mutations contribute to the de‐domestication of Iberian weedy rice
Weedy plants are a major constraint on agricultural productivity. Weedy rice, a weedy type of rice, invades rice fields worldwide and is responsible for reductions in rice yields. Studies to date have detected multiple independent weedy rice origins in different parts of the world.

Smallholder farms that transition to organic and biodiverse production are increasingly recognized as strongholds of agrobiodiversity. Yet the emergent herbaceous communities in these organic systems remain understudied, with the functional diversity and management of this stratum relatively unknown.
