Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Transformative change is required to address persistent and systemic drivers of biodiversity loss. There is an urgent need for innovative solutions that tackle root causes in place‐specific contexts. Evidence indicates that small, innovative, purpose‐driven businesses can serve as vehicles for developing place‐based solutions.

Soil seed bank dynamics in hayfield succession [PDF]
Journal of Ecology, 2000 Summary 1 Changes in the species composition of the soil seed bank were determined in a dry and a more species‐rich wet chronosequence. Each sequence represented a 25‐year hayfield succession following cessation of fertilizer application in the Drentse A Nature Reserve (NL), where the vegetation has been studied since 1972.

African Twist of Circular Economy: Insights, Policies and Recommendations
Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While the circular economy (CE) has gained traction, this paper argues that mainstream CE approaches risk being misaligned in the African context. Drawing on a mixed‐methods synthesis of empirical studies, policy documents and cross‐country examples, the study shows that Africa's CE transition is fragmented and uneven, leaving the continent at

Germination responses of a dry sclerophyll forest soil-stored seedbank to fire related cues [PDF]
, 2013 Fire is an integral component of many ecosystems worldwide. Many plant species require fire-related cues, primarily heat and smoke, to trigger germination. Despite the importance of this process, the responses of many Australian species to these cues are
