Children and adolescents across 23 communities learn about animals in diverse environments and through multiple activities

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Children's interactions with animals shape their understanding of the biological world and humans' place in it. Understanding where children report they encounter and gain their knowledge of animals can provide insight into the early experiences that help shape human attitudes and connections to nature. To date, there is limited information on

Defining equity: Government and community notions of equity in marine conservation co‐management

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Perceived inequities lie at the core of many conservation conflicts, yet empirical comparisons of how different stakeholders conceptualise equity remain rare. Despite its prominence in global policy frameworks, equity is context‐dependent and understood differently by different actors, making it difficult to define and operationalise. Using an

Birds among us: Perceptions of bird‐mediated services and disservices in a northern city

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Birds can benefit people or cause harm. Understanding how people perceive birds in cities, where most daily interactions among people and nature occur, could inform decision‐making in support of biodiversity and human well‐being We distributed a survey in a growing mid‐sized city (Lahti, Finland) to evaluate which bird‐mediated ecosystem ...

Within‐tree spatial heterogeneity of sap flow velocities and wood properties and its effect on the uncertainty of tree level sap flux estimates

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As forests are important for biodiversity and recreation and provide vital resources globally, it is essential that their health can be accurately monitored, for example, by using sap flow probes to measure tree water uptake. We investigated whether sap flow measurements might differ at various locations within the same tree due to variation in wood ...

Enhance food plant diversity conservation and use through greater coordination between genebanks and botanic gardens

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Food plants are vital to human and planetary health, but their diversity is threatened, making food security, nutrition, and environmental goals more difficult to achieve. Food plant diversity conservation, research, and education can be enhanced through collaboration between sectors, including genebanks and botanic gardens, which possess complementary

Identification, quantification, and management of human health risks from long‐distance pesticide transport

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Pesticides can move through air, water, and global trade networks after application, exposing populations far from the original source, while most risk assessments and regulations still treat pesticide exposure as a local problem. This perspective offers a new framework to define, trace, and quantify long‐distance pesticide risk across connected ...

Forensic Hydraulic Analysis of Floodplain Connectivity Driven by Historical Beaver Dams in Colorado Headwater Streams

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...
