Familiarity and aggression shape long‐term associations and mortality risk in a solitary ungulate

Oikos, EarlyView.
Periodic social interactions are important to animal fitness, even in solitary species. For solitary species, these interactions can be unexpected and shaped by previous encounters. Despite being aggressive and largely solitary, black rhinoceroses Diceros bicornis are commonly seen in groups, suggesting they may engage in more social behaviours than ...

The missing woodland story: Implications of 1700 years of stand‐scale change on ‘naturalness’ and managing remnant broadleaved woodlands

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Longer‐term perspectives—equivalent to the lifespans of long‐lived trees—are required to fully inform perceptions of ‘naturalness’ used in woodland conservation and management. Stand‐scale dynamics of an old growth temperate woodland are reconstructed using palaeoecological data.

Understanding smallholder decision‐making to increase farm tree diversity: Enablers and barriers for forest landscape restoration in Western Kenya

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Integrating diverse trees and shrubs (hereafter ‘trees’) in agricultural landscapes has emerged as a crucial nature‐based solution to the triple challenge of biodiversity loss, climate change and food security. The potential benefits of on‐farm trees for both people and nature, however, are often constrained by inadequate consideration of ...

A review of high nature value farming systems in Europe: Biodiversity, ecosystem services, drivers, innovations and future prospects

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Farming systems of high natural and cultural value represent approximately 30% of farmlands in the European Union and are associated with a high species and habitat diversity and/or the presence of species of European conservation concern. This study aims to synthesize the existing knowledge on the assessment of biodiversity and ecosystem ...

Some love them, others hate them: Understanding farmers' tree planting decisions in Scotland

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Agroforestry is increasingly recognized as a sustainable agricultural land use system with potential to sequester carbon, create and repair habitats, enhance biodiversity and offer environmental and socio‐economic benefits, including improved agricultural productivity.
