Community‐Managed Systems as Nature‐Based Solutions: Effects of Elevation and Size on Floral Richness and Carbon Stock of Sacred Groves in Kerala, India

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Limiting global warming to 1.5°C–2°C requires rapid reductions in atmospheric carbon, highlighting the need to conserve ecosystems with high carbon stock potential. Sacred groves are culturally protected forest fragments maintained through traditional practices and represent community‐managed landscapes with significant potential as nature ...

Post‐Mining Conservation Measures for Erosion Control: A Global Assessment of Their Effectiveness on Runoff and Soil Erosion Reduction

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mining activities severely disturb land surfaces and hydrological processes, intensifying hillslope erosion and soil loss. To evaluate the effectiveness of post‐mining restoration measures and identify the factors regulating their performance, we compiled a global dataset of runoff and soil erosion yield from 58 studies spanning multiple mine ...

Modified Biochar for Wastewater Nutrient Recovery and Slow‐Release Fertilization in Sandy Agroecosystems

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modified biochars are increasingly recognized as multifunctional materials for wastewater nutrient recovery and slow‐release fertilization in sandy agroecosystems. This review evaluates modified biochars, with particular emphasis on tyre‐derived biochar (TBC), for (i) recovery of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) from wastewater and digestate ...

Contribution of ultrafine particles to alkalinity in a limestone‐treated waterbody

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract While it is well recognized that suspended particles can bias titration‐based total alkalinity (TA), whether addition of minerals for alkalinity enhancement introduces systematic TA artifacts remains poorly quantified. To address this gap, we quantified the contribution of ultrafine particles (< 0.2 μm) to TA titration introduced by limestone (

FennoTraits: dataset of plant functional traits and community composition in northern European flora

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
We present here FennoTraits, a dataset of plant functional trait and community composition data collected from Fennoscandia across northern Finland, Norway, and Sweden in 2016–2025. This dataset has 42 049 abundance estimations and 155 794 site‐level functional trait observations from 10 traits representing 373 vascular plant species collected from ...

Mechanisms and impacts of future plant invasions: research agendas and management needs under disruptive social‐ecological change scenarios

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
No‐analogue futures are characteristic of the Anthropocene, but how global change, and societies' responses, will affect plant invasions remains unclear. Conducting research now to address future needs is crucial for guiding invasion management and policy.

Technical wildness: Modernity, romanticism, and the technocratic turn in Scottish rewilding

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Technical wildness is a new and increasingly influential culture of nature. This paper marks its emergence in Scotland in the early 2020s. Focusing on Scotland's rapidly evolving land management sector, the paper traces how private rewilding companies position science‐led land management and natural capital markets as the most effective ...
