Divergent benefits of urban nature: A comparison of new towns and unplanned settlements in South Tangerang, Indonesia

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 9, Page 3093-3109, September 2026.
Abstract Urban nature provides essential ecosystem services, but their use and perception vary based on socio‐demographic factors, including settlement type, which reflects differences in socio‐economic and environmental conditions. This study compares how residents of new town developments (master‐planned areas) and unplanned settlements (organically ...

Simulated elephant foraging alters tree root exudation rates: Species‐specific responses and implications for belowground carbon dynamics in tropical forests

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1733-1745, September 2026.
Asian elephants play crucial roles in ecosystem functioning, and their interactions with plants influence above‐ and belowground carbon cycling. We tested whether their mechanically destructive foraging triggers short‐term, stress‐induced shifts in tree root exudation, an underappreciated pathway linking herbivory to belowground carbon processes.

Functionally Relevant Feeding Enrichment: An Examination of Nectar Feeding Devices With Two Species of Parrot

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
Nectar‐based feeding devices increased aerial activity and bucket use while reducing bowl use in rainbow lorikeets but produced little behavioural change in regent parrots. Species‐specific feeding enrichment promotes natural foraging behaviour and may improve welfare in captive nectarivorous parrots.
