Industrial Symbiosis as a Neglected Opportunity in Industrial Decarbonisation Pathways: Qualitative Insights From the Australian Manufacturing Sector

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Industrial symbiosis (IS) represents a key strategy for industrial decarbonisation (ID) by converting one industry's waste into valuable inputs for another, reducing emissions and resource extraction. Scientific studies have explored the concept, implementation approaches and theoretical foundations of IS.

Perceptions of Governance (Il)Legitimacy Mediate Climate Change Adaptation in the Lake Victoria Basin, Uganda

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Governance is a well‐known dimension of adaptive capacity across various frameworks, however specific links between perceptions of governance (il)legitimacy and adaptive capacity remain relatively unexplored. In this study, we investigate connections between climate change adaptation and perceptions of governance (il)legitimacy using focus ...

Impact of Geography on Institutions in Agricultural and Nomadic Societies

International Studies of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How geography affects the choice of institutions is studied in a theoretical model. In this model, nations are located around a circle. Rulers compete through choosing tax rates, the level of military spending, and the degree of formality of institutions. Geographic condition is captured by population density.

‘The most advanced outpost of cultivation’: palynological evidence for cereal agriculture and population resilience in a marginal upland environment

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Upland farming in Europe is frequently assumed to have been limited and precarious, despite relict spade‐dug ridges providing firm evidence of past crop growing. Direct evidence for crop types in post‑Medieval to Modern (~since 1500 CE) uplands is rare; yet, in Ireland, relict spade‐dug ridges that date to this period are commonly interpreted ...

Is quinoa‐farming sustainable in marginal environments? Social, economical and environmental aspects

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean grain crop introduced as a novel crop to many parts of the world in recent years. Recognized for nutritious seeds and high abiotic stress tolerance, it has been promoted as an element of climate‐resilient agriculture, particularly in marginal environments.

From Trapped to Resilient Mountains: Diversified Coupling Pathways Linking Land Use Transition and Rural Revitalization for Mountain Sustainable Development

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The synergistic interplay among land use transition, rural revitalization, and sustainable development is critical for harmonizing human‐land‐economic systems. Understanding their diverse coupling pathways is key to resolving human‐land conflicts and advancing sustainable rural development in mountainous regions. However, existing research has
