A Hierarchical Framework for Unpacking the Nitrogen Challenge

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 10, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Abstract To feed the world population while mitigating pressing nitrogen (N) pollution problems, tremendous efforts have been devoted to developing and implementing N‐efficient technologies in crop or livestock production, but limited progress has been made.

A framework for lotic macrosystem research

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 12, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021
Abstract We analyze here the nature of research in freshwater macrosystem biology (especially lotic studies) from both conceptual and current research perspectives. The boundaries of permanent and transitional lotic macrosystems from the smallest to largest spatial extents are described. We contrast ecosystem vs.

Macrosystems revisited: challenges and successes in a new subdiscipline of ecology

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 4-10, February 2021., 2021
Macrosystems biology research has expanded and evolved over the past decade as the scientific community grapples with ecological issues at regional to continental scales relevant to human interactions within the biosphere. Macrosystems biology builds on established fields of study like population and community ecology, biogeography, and global ...

The evolution of macrosystems biology

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 11-19, February 2021., 2021
In an era of unprecedented human impacts on the planet, macrosystems biology (MSB) was developed to understand ecological patterns and processes within and across spatial and temporal scales. We used machine‐learning and qualitative literature review approaches to evaluate the thematic composition of MSB from articles published since the 2010 creation ...

Multi‐scale biodiversity drives temporal variability in macrosystems

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 47-56, February 2021., 2021
High temporal variability in environmental conditions, populations, and ecological communities can result in species extinctions and outbreaks of agricultural pests and disease vectors, as well as impact industries dependent on reliable provisioning of ecosystem services. Yet few empirical studies have focused on testing hypotheses about the drivers of

A Review of Unidirectional Surface Plasmon Polariton Metacouplers

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics, 2019
Efficient and unidirectional excitation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) and their low-frequency counterparts (i.e., spoof SPPs) is highly desired in the research area of photonics and plasmonics, while being at the same time rather challenging. Recent progress in gradient metasurfaces, ultrathin, and planar materials composed of sub-wavelength ...

Data_Sheet_1_The Metacoupling Framework Informs Stream Salmonid Management and Governance.PDF

open access: yes, 2020
Stream salmonid fisheries are ecologically and socioeconomically important at local to global scales throughout the world. Although these fisheries are interacting systems of biota, habitats, and humans, systematic social-ecological integration across ...

2D materials integrated with metallic nanostructures: fundamentals and optoelectronic applications

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 9, Issue 7, Page 1877-1900, February 2020., 2020
Abstract Due to their novel electronic and optical properties, atomically thin layered two‐dimensional (2D) materials are becoming promising to realize novel functional optoelectronic devices including photodetectors, modulators, and lasers. However, light–matter interactions in 2D materials are often weak because of the atomic‐scale thickness, thus ...

China's interprovincial flows of tourism-based cultural ecosystem services and its bundling effects across metacoupled systems

open access: yes, 2023
In metacoupling anthropocene, the flow of cultural ecosystem services (FCES) can establish intangible connections between human and natural systems, even across vast distances.

More than ponds amid skyscrapers: Urban fisheries as multiscalar human-natural systems

open access: yes, 2022
Although social-ecological fisheries research is growing, comparatively little attention is paid to fisheries in urban environments. We aim to address this imbalance, because as cities expand worldwide, we expect urban fisheries to become more widespread
