From Map Follower to Navigator: Archetypes of Environmental Impact Assessment

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental impact assessment (EIA) scholarship is commonly framed as a tension between efficiency and comprehensiveness paradigms. These paradigms describe a persistent tension but cannot explain how EIA operates through it. Drawing on social systems theory, this analysis traces that operation.

An Outline of a Theory of Play

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Play is often dismissed as trivial, yet it is a fundamental and adaptive aspect of human and mammalian life. This paper develops a sociological theory of play, treating it as a total social fact that spans biological, psychological, and social dimensions.

Strategies for enhancing sensitivity in lateral flow assays

VIEW, EarlyView.
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are essential for cost‐effective, rapid point‐of‐care diagnostics. However, conventional colourimetric LFAs often lack the sensitivity required for low‐abundance biomarkers. This review evaluates six enhancement strategies: flow modulation, sample preconcentration, advanced reporters, chemical signal amplification, structural

Unraveling the impact of dog‐friendly spaces on urban–wildland pumas and other wildlife

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As the most widespread large carnivore on the planet, domestic dogs Canis lupus familiaris can pose a major threat to wildlife, even within protected areas (PAs). Growing human presence in PAs, coupled with increasing pet dog ownership underscores the urgency to understand the influence of dogs on wildlife activity and health.

Understanding thermal conditions provides context for the influence of habitat characteristics on gamebird winter ecology

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The fundamental niche of an organism is regulated partially by its ability to cope with a range of thermal environments, which can be directly influenced by management across spatial scales and seasons. However, despite winter weather being a major source of mortality for many species in northern latitudes, the impact of thermal conditions on wintering
