A Natural History of ‘Annoyances’: Knowing Weeds and Weeding Knowledge in the Early Royal Society and its ‘Georgicall Committee’

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seventeenth‐century virtuosi often figured themselves as epistemic weeders, grubbing up rank thickets of accumulated error. In this article, I argue that these metaphors were unnerved by the shifting status of weeds—ostensibly unwanted plants from the margins of cultivated space, unploughed land or the disturbed soils between growing crops—in ...

A Trial of Ground‐Based Methods for Controlling Osmunda regalis L. Invasion of Waikato Wetlands, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 4, December 2026.
Over 90% of palustrine wetlands in New Zealand have been lost, and those remaining face ongoing threats such as plant invasions. In the northern North Island, there is concern about widespread invasion of wetlands by royal fern (Osmunda regalis), a fast‐growing exotic fern introduced to New Zealand in 1890.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Seasonality, Storms and Soil Properties Drive Groundwater and Salinity Dynamics in Retreating Coastal Forests

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 7, October/November 2026.
ABSTRACT Sea level rise is causing the rapid conversion of upland habitats to salt marshes in low‐sloping areas due to increasing groundwater salinity and soil saturation. Despite this being a widespread phenomenon, questions remain about the factors shaping groundwater hydrology and salinity in these transitioning systems, particularly in the US ...
