Towards Responsible Mining in Africa: Problematising the Environmental and Public Health Concerns of Artisanal and Small‐Scale Gold Mining in Ghana

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There have been emerging media reports on the impact of cyanide and mercury use in artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) operations on community health, especially among pregnant and non‐pregnant women, ASGM miners, and children in rural Africa.

Aftermath of the Forest Carbon Credit Crisis as Experienced by Restoration and Conservation Organisations

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 2023, The Guardian reported on several scientific studies denouncing the role of certain forest carbon credits in mitigating climate change. Subsequently, credit prices on the voluntary carbon market (VCM) plummeted—providing a quantitative indication of its impact.

Does innovation success need advocacy? Stakeholder involvement in firm innovation

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Prior research documents that firms often collaborate with advocacy groups to mitigate stakeholder contention. Integrating stakeholder theory into a performance model of collaborative innovation, we propose an overlooked explanation for such collaborations: to enhance the adoption of firms' innovations.

Detecting changes in distribution and abundance using harvest data in two sympatric bear species in Southeast Alaska

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Monitoring wildlife populations in remote landscapes is challenging due to the difficulties of conducting field surveys. However, harvest data, which are routinely collected by management agencies, offer valuable insights into population trends. Brown bear Ursus arctosand American black bear U.

Jaguar Densities and Land Cover Change in a Multi‐Use Landscape: A 10‐Year Comparison in the Colombian Llanos 美洲豹种群密度与复合用地景观下的土地覆被变化:哥伦比亚亚诺斯地区10年比较研究

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
We used spatially explicit capture‐recapture to estimate jaguar densities in a private reserve in the Colombian Llanos and quantified land cover change in and around the reserve from 2014 to 2024. Densities increased 22% since 2014, while disturbed land cover increased by 39%–54% around the reserve depending on buffer distance. Our study indicates that

Conductivity Analysis and Thermoelectric Behaviour of Larch Standing Trees Under Lightning Currents: Role of Moisture Distribution and Carrier Motion

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The direct effects of lightning strikes on forest combustibles form the foundation for predicting lightning‐induced forest fires. Accurate assessment of lightning impact is hindered by limited knowledge of the conduction characteristics of standing larch trees.

From steps to home ranges: How habitat disturbance influences the movement drivers of an arboreal primate

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Challenging the narrative about howler monkeys' high resilience to anthropogenic changes, our multiscale analysis reveals the costs of habitat disturbance to their movement ecology. We identify thermal limitations, reduced travel efficiency, and significant spatial saturation.
