TRANSNATIONAL GENTRIFICATION IN NISEKO, JAPAN: A Model of Displacement Led by Linked Migration

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Transnational gentrification scholarship has provided insights into how transnational migration reshapes urban areas, yet its analytical lens has rarely extended to peripheral rural contexts outside Euro‐American settings, where distinct actors and mechanisms may emerge.

STRATIFIED ADAPTATION: Infrastructure, Elevation, and Cascading Floods in the Urban Mekong Delta

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Flood‐prone cities in the global South are increasingly the target of infrastructure projects aimed at building climate ‘resilience’. At the same time, residents of these cities take adaptation to flooding into their own hands. In this article we examine the interrelationship between household‐scale and urban‐scale flood mitigation projects in

Nocturnal Behavior of Wintering Common Cranes (Grus grus) Under Varying Environmental Conditions

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
For diurnal species, nighttime represents a critical ecological boundary. Understanding the ecological determinants of nocturnal activity in taxa traditionally regarded as inactive after dusk is essential for elucidating the adaptive significance of nighttime behavior. We examined how night phase, nocturnal brightness (moon illumination and cloud cover)
