ABSTRACT The growing significance of informal intergovernmental organisations (IIGOs) in global politics necessitates a re‐evaluation of leadership dynamics. We develop a theory framework that enables us to explain why countries take on leadership roles in IIGOs, with a specific focus on climate politics.

movetrack: An R package to model flight paths from radio‐telemetry networks
Abstract Tracking small‐ to large‐scale movements of animals is important for studying their interactions with the environment, including how they adjust and adapt their migration in response to environmental and human‐induced changes. Despite the technical progress in tracking devices, a major challenge remains for small animals—such as songbirds ...

The rapid expansion of wind energy across the Mediterranean region calls for more advanced tools to assess and mitigate its impacts on biodiversity. In this study, we present an innovative approach combining 13‐year satellite imagery analysis and ecological modelling, to assess the spatiotemporal overlap between wind energy development and habitat ...

Survival Remains High in Griffon Vultures 40 Years After Reintroduction
The reintroduction of the Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) in French Grands Causses in 1981 is largely regarded as a significant translocation success. 40 years of quality data from intensive monitoring allows us to investigate the survival rates in this long‐lived population on the long term, but also to reflect on the crucial role of adaptive management

The policy adjacent: How affordable housing generates policy feedback among neighboring residents
Abstract While scholars have documented feedback effects among a policy's direct winners and losers, less is known about whether such effects can occur among the indirectly affected—“the policy adjacent.” Using 458 geocoded housing developments built between two nearly identical statewide ballot propositions funding affordable housing in California, we
