Root biomass distribution in response to increasing active layer thickness across plant communities in a permafrost peatland

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
In Arctic tundra, the majority of plant biomass is belowground. As temperatures increase and permafrost thaws, new soil volume containing nitrogen becomes available for plant roots, potentially leading to new plant–soil interactions. Whether or not different plant communities adapt their rooting depth distribution in response to increasing active layer

Shaping Manager Well‐Being and Functioning in Declining Nonprofit Organizations: The Critical Role of Strategy Implementation

Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Under the roof of Christian churches in Central Europe, some nonprofit organizations (NPOs) grow, while others are in marked decline. Our study in this context extends a previous focus on financial indicators to NPO managers' experiences, their role clarity and job satisfaction, during phases of organizational growth and decline. Specifically,

Dispersal‐limited birds at high risk from cattle farming deforestation in tropical forests

Oikos, EarlyView.
Deforestation driven by farming is a major threat to tropical biodiversity. Although this impact is well documented, assessments at local or regional scales often underestimate biodiversity loss at broader national scales by up to 60%. A key question remains: how do farming activities affect functional diversity and species traits across different ...

Phosphorus limits the growth of bacterial and eukaryotic primary producers in recently deglaciated High Arctic soils

Oikos, EarlyView.
Glaciers are receding at unprecedented rates worldwide, exposing large areas of barren sediment that are quickly colonized by microbes. Nutrient availability is a critical driver of early ecosystem succession, but in the High Arctic its role has remained uncertain.

Using participatory scenario planning to explore the synergies and trade‐offs from upland treescape expansion

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The future of land use in the UK uplands is highly debated, with growing interest in increasing tree cover and other land use changes, alongside a desire to maintain traditional land use patterns and practices. Treescape expansion is likely to result in synergies and trade‐offs between different outcomes, so integrating stakeholder preferences

Temporal PV‐Power of Rooftops and Facades in Urban Areas Based on Ray Tracing

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
In this contribution, we develop an analytical model to calculate the time‐resolved power of PV‐systems on facades, flat roofs, and pitched roofs in an urban area as a function of a full‐load hour threshold. ABSTRACT Distributed photovoltaics (PV) can significantly contribute to the reduction of carbon emissions in urban energy systems.
