Planting for healthy air: Urban biodiversity enhances natural chemical environments
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Cities urgently need nature to improve public health, support biodiversity, and increase resilience to climate change. Yet not all green spaces offer the same benefits. In this study, we show that more diverse urban plantings create richer “chemical environments”; subtle, naturally scented atmospheres formed by plant emissions that can influence how ...

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Peri‐urban areas in West Africa are expanding rapidly, often with limited planning and growing exposure to climate risks. Our study shows that agroforestry systems in these landscapes, especially diverse home gardens, can store substantial amounts of carbon when they include structurally complex stands and species with traits that favor biomass ...

The Ladder of Multispecies Participation: Moving Towards a More Convivial Urban Planning
Nordic Journal of Urban StudiesCities are brimming with more-than-human life. But cities are also responsible for both planned and unplanned forms of violence towards other species, where the exploitation of nature continues to destroy ecosystems. To prevent further biodiversity loss,

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Plant hybridization is increasingly recognized as an important evolutionary process, and a deeper understanding of hybridization is necessary for its application to agriculture, conservation, and ecological solutions. Here, we assess correlates of hybridization in the megadiverse and societally important family Asteraceae and how and where hybrids have

Speculating-with Other-than-Humans in Multispecies Climate Fiction: Canopy of the Hidden Alley
Australian Journal of Environmental EducationThis article explores multispecies climate fiction as a mode of inquiry that speculates-with other-than-humans. To explore cli-fi’s potential in research, I position speculative fiction in the field of research-creation, a praxis that combines artistic ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Flow regime alteration is among the most pervasive threats to freshwater ecosystems globally, and migratory species are particularly vulnerable to these impacts. Despite this, specific aspects of flow regimes that shape spawning migrations remain poorly understood for most threatened species.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.We propose a set of paradigms (survey design, tip and cue, validation, consilience, interpolation and extrapolation, and data fusion) and prioritize a set of principles (metadata standards, use rights and licensing, scientific rigor, and utility) as the foundations of an actionable framework for nature technology data integration. We then analyze seven

The invisible city: The mundane biogeographies of urban microbial ecologies
Geo: Geography and EnvironmentMore‐than‐human, multispecies and animal geographic accounts of the city have tended to focus on large, charismatic and wild organisms, to the detriment of spatially invisible other‐than‐humans that are central to urban reproduction.

Multispecies Constitutionality: Governing Human-Wildlife Interaction Beyond Anthropocentrism
International Journal of the CommonsThe question of the role of non-humans in conservation has given rise to a number of pressing debates. Proponents of ecocentrism, multispecies ethnography or the post-human turn have all aimed to promote more-than-human perspectives and attribute equal ...
