Unveiling human–wildlife interactions in the context of livestock grazing abandonment and the return of large carnivores, ungulates and vultures: A stakeholder perspective

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Pastoral practices remain a widespread economic activity across European mountain regions. However, the viability of this activity may be threatened by the recovery of large wild vertebrates associated with passive rewilding, leading to the so‐called human–wildlife conflicts.

Digitizing collections to unlock the full potential of palynology: A case study with the Smithsonian palynology collection

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Large palynological collections have been built over decades and contain vital information. However, they are often difficult to access and use effectively. What is the point of having such collections if they are not fully utilizable? To solve this problem, we digitized the Smithsonian palynological collection using both light and confocal microscopy.

Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change is contributing to vegetation changes that threaten life support systems. Yet, inherent climatic variability and past and present human actions—such as clearing, burning and grazing regimes—also alter vegetation and complicate understanding of vegetation change. Australian ecosystems exemplify such complexity.

Using MALDI‐FTICR Mass Spectrometry to Enhance ZooMS Identifications of Pleistocene Bone Fragments Showing Variable Collagen Preservation

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Recent advances in high‐throughput molecular analyses of collagen peptides, especially ZooMS (Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry), have permitted breakthroughs in the analysis of archaeological material that is highly fragmented, a factor that hinders morphological identification.

Tributary‐Trunk Sedimentary Links in an Inter‐Dam River Reach: Lessons From Low‐Altitude High‐Gradient Forested Streams, the Dyje River (Czechia‐Austria)

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study employs two measures of connectivity, valley confinement index (VCI) and effective catchment area (ECA), combined with a field survey of active sediment sources (ASS) to unravel the tributary‐trunk sedimentary links in the 42.5 km long inter‐dam reach of the Dyje River, Czech‐Austrian border.

Towards a Sustainable Future: Addressing Climate Change and Promoting Sustainable Development

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze policy research and global agreements on the decarbonization of economic development. Climate change and economic development are separate and equal, and strategies should separate responsibility from action. This will be required beyond the Kyoto and Paris agreements.

Phylogeny and divergence times of the African and Malagasy Podocarpus (Podocarpaceae) and their taxonomic and biogeographic implications

open access: yesTAXON, EarlyView.
Abstract Podocarpus is the most speciose genus of the podocarp family (Podocarpaceae) widely distributed in the mountain forests of subtropical and tropical Asia, the Neotropics and Australasia, where its members have been shown to have had multiple origins.
