Buildings as accidental habitat: Where animals nest, sleep and forage

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Animals have long inhabited human buildings alongside us, but our understanding comes from isolated studies, such as reports of a possum in the roof or a bat in our walls. What we lack is the building's perspective: which building features actually serve as habitat and for whom?

Barriers and opportunities for further enhancing urban garden biodiversity: Insights from a behaviour change model for the United Kingdom

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Urbanisation poses a major threat to biodiversity, yet residential gardens offer opportunities to provide key habitats for urban wildlife. Understanding both the perceived feasibility of implementing further improvements to gardens for biodiversity and the barriers that constrain engagement is essential for designing effective conservation ...

Rewilding's technological experiments: Virtual reality and scalable narratives of rewilding in the Scottish highlands

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Depictions of rewilded landscapes reveal the underlying principles shaping the future of rewilding. This paper analyses a virtual reality (VR) model of a rewilding project in the Scottish Highlands that is advertised as a vision of a rewilded nature in 50 to 100 years' time.

Integrating SfM, LiDAR and TLS for High‐Resolution Monitoring of Palsa Surface Changes and Degradation Dynamics

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding fine‐scale surface changes is crucial for quantifying ecosystem dynamics and detecting landscape changes. Palsas, comparably small peatland elevations with an ice‐rich permafrost core, undergo natural cycles of growth and degradation. They can also serve as indicators of climate change in subarctic regions. Because they typically
