The place bonding potential of nature‐based citizen science with refugee children and youth

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 11, Page 3915-3930, November 2026.
Abstract Nature‐based citizen science often involves close interaction with places. In addition to providing benefits, such as learning opportunities and contact with nature, it can facilitate and shape bonds between people and places. Research exploring the place bonding potential of such projects is still in its infancy. This paper addresses this gap

Taxon‐Specific Selection Drives Contrasting Fast–Slow Strategies of Montane Small Mammal Communities

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding how life history strategies vary among sympatric taxa along environmental gradients is fundamental to predicting biodiversity responses to climate change. We evaluated how mechanistic linkages between life‐history strategies and environmental change operate in montane small mammals (specifically glires and insectivores).
