Ambition without alignment: Pollinators in the EU Nature Restoration Law
Abstract Pollinators are essential for life on Earth. They enable the reproduction of most flowering plants and support biodiversity as well as food systems. However, their numbers are in great decline. Research finds a continuing decrease in pollinating insects each year. This article reviews whether EU Law is fit to address this challenge.

It is estimated that peatland covers more than one million square kilometres of Canada, extending from the southernmost part of the country to the Arctic in the continuous permafrost zone. This terrain has been subjected to increasing scientific and engineering study as northern development progresses. Many geotechnical engineering activities in Canada

Abstract To achieve the EU's targets for expanding renewable energies, it is necessary to use an increasing amount of land for the installation of solar panels. In regions where land is scarce, there is heightened pressure to transform agricultural land into industrial land for the installation of ground‐mounted photovoltaics. As a dual land‐use system,

Abstract Nitrogen (N) use efficiency of urea is often low, resulting in inefficient N utilization. Again, peat, a high organic carbon (OC)‐containing soil, is considered a problematic soil. However, enriching peat with urea may release fertilizer N slowly, and its application to agricultural soil can sequester OC in the soil.

The rare and the common: habitat suitability and niche segregation of Anopheles algeriensis (Theobald, 1903) and Anopheles claviger s.s. (Meigen, 1804) in North-German peatlands is shaped by distinct landscape-weather interactions. [PDF]
