Fused Collapsing for Wide BVH Construction
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We propose a novel approach for constructing wide bounding volume hierarchies on the GPU by integrating a simple bottom‐up collapsing procedure within an existing binary bottom‐up BVH builder. Our approach directly constructs a wide BVH without traversing a temporary binary BVH as done by previous approaches and achieves 1.4 – 1.6 × lower ...

Style Brush: Guided Style Transfer for 3D Objects
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.We introduce Style Brush, a guided 3D style‐transfer method for textured meshes that provides precise creative control. It supports the use of multiple style images, smooth transitions and intuitive guidance, producing visually appealing textures that follow user intent as we demonstrate in our user study and results. Abstract We introduce Style Brush,

Children &Society, EarlyView.Abstract This article explores the ways in which ‘forest school’, an educational approach where children engage in creative and play based activities in a ‘natural’ environment, can contribute towards Sustainable Development Goal 15 (SDG 15) by promoting sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems and by helping address biodiversity loss. Drawing on data

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Recognition and engagement of Indigenous Peoples and local communities (IP&LCs) and other traditional knowledge (TK) holders in formal biodiversity governance remain limited, despite their significant contribution to the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity through their knowledge, innovations, practices, and land stewardship.

Using incentive payments to promote human–carnivore coexistence
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract For many large carnivores, minimizing the financial burden they impose on local people is critical to their conservation. Incentive‐based programs that provide people with financial benefits for taking pro‐conservation actions or achieving conservation goals are a promising tool for promoting human–carnivore coexistence. Although the number of

Perceived costs as drivers of wildlife management preferences in rural Tanzanian communities
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Effectively managing human–wildlife interactions is crucial for fostering coexistence on shared landscapes. Management options are most effective when aligned with the preferences of people directly affected by wildlife, yet little is known about how socioecological factors influence these preferences.

Evaluating synthetic substitutes to reduce illegal harvesting and support species recovery
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Providing synthetic substitutes is a widely promoted strategy to shift consumer demand away from wildlife products derived from threatened species. Yet, there is little evidence on whether product substitution prevents illegal or unsustainable harvesting and contributes to the recovery of threatened populations.

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.We monitored medium to large mammal and human activity to assess impacts of recreation and inform management, deploying 27 trail cameras along multi‐use non‐motorized recreational trails for 2.5 years in a heavily used area within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, USA.
