ABSTRACT Coastal wetlands are critical blue carbon sinks, yet their spatiotemporal dynamics under environmental change remain insufficiently quantified. Taking the Yellow River Delta (YRD) as a natural laboratory, this study synthesizes multi‐source remote sensing data, including optical and radar imagery spanning from 1984 to 2023, to explore the ...

Initial colonization by bryophytes and ferns during primary succession on Nishinoshima, Japan
Volcanic islands that have experienced complete vegetation loss following recent eruptions provide rare opportunities to observe the earliest stages of ecosystem recovery. Nishinoshima, an oceanic island located approximately 1000 km south of mainland Japan, underwent major volcanic activity between 2013 and 2020, eradicating all pre‐existing ...

More than proteins for empty stomachs: Wild meat in the BaTonga food system
Abstract Our paper highlights the limitations of the framework used by many conservation‐focused programmes that incorporate food security objectives. This framework encourages the substitution of wild proteins with domestic proteins by promoting animal farming in communities located near conservation areas.
