Are Less Affluent People Less Likely to Run for Political Office?
Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.Abstract In almost all democracies, elected officials are better off than most of the citizens they represent. Recent research has shown that this descriptive misrepresentation is partly due to voter and party bias against less well‐off candidates. In this paper, we explore a third possible explanation: Are less affluent people less likely to run for ...

Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.Abstract This research note investigates how discriminatory experiences shape political protest behaviour among lower social class citizens. While prior studies show that discrimination mobilises ethnic and racial minorities toward protest, the political consequences of class‐based discrimination remain underexplored.

Nested Claims, Cross‐Segmental Issues, and Elite Competition in Powersharing
Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.Abstract Powersharing systems rely on descriptive representation, where elected elites ‘stand in’ for their segment's voters, incentivising intransigence and penalising cross‐segmental cooperation. Yet powersharing politics regularly witness cross‐segmental appeals, voting patterns and party formation.

Global Flash Drought Prediction Through Evaporative Stress Forecasting
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.Abstract Flash droughts pose severe risks to societies and ecosystems due to their sudden onset and rapid intensification. Predicting their vegetation impacts at subseasonal timescales remains difficult. Advances in hybrid physics‐AI models and weather forecasting create new opportunities to enhance the predictability of evaporative stress, a key ...

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 8, Page 2847-2865, August 2026.Abstract Mountain social–ecological systems encompass steep ecological gradients and diverse cultural practices, yet the relative roles of these factors in shaping mountain landscapes remain underexplored. In particular, the knowledge and practices of women in coproducing biocultural landscapes are often invisible in the academic literature. In the Ait

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 715-728, August 2026.Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under
