Opportunities for targeted, small‐scale law reform in marine and coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Across the globe, law reform is being considered as a mechanism to support, guide, and encourage the upscaling of ecological restoration. While high‐profile examples like the European Nature Restoration Law show the value of large‐scale law reform, this scale of law reform will not be feasible or politically tractable everywhere.

Sponges survive and develop infaunal snapping shrimp communities when transplanted immediately after clonal propagation: implications for restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Sponges historically dominated the heterotrophic biomass of Florida Bay's hard‐bottom habitat, providing crucial ecosystem services including shelter for soniferous shrimp that contribute to the marine soundscape. The loss of the sponge communities has inspired restoration efforts using in‐water nurseries for vegetative ...

Integrating virtual reality experiences with preservice and inservice science teachers

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
Abstract VR environments offer opportunities for novel science learning experiences. This article discusses how we integrated virtual reality experiences with preservice and inservice science teachers. We explore the affordances of VR for enhancing science education and its potential applications in secondary level classrooms. Specifically, we describe

Street Cries and Public Space Noise Abatement in 19th‐20th Century Barcelona

open access: yesTijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.
Abstract Focusing on Barcelona, this paper explores the historical and contemporary dynamics of street cries that allow traders to attract customers and make themselves heard in public spaces. While still common in marketplaces in southern Europe, there is a growing trend towards silencing these street cries in the name of reducing urban noise levels ...

The emotional contents of the ‘space’ in spatial music [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Human spatial perception is how we understand places. Beyond understanding what is where (William James’ formulation of the psychological approach to perception); there are holistic qualities to places.

Advancing Marine Bioacoustics With Deep Generative Models: A Hybrid Augmentation Strategy for Southern Resident Killer Whale Detection

open access: yesMarine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Automated detection and classification of marine mammal vocalizations is critical for conservation and management efforts but is hindered by limited annotated datasets and the acoustic complexity of real‐world marine environments. Data augmentation has proven to be an effective strategy to address this limitation by increasing dataset ...

Listening to tropical forest soils

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Acoustic monitoring has proven to be an effective tool for monitoring biotic soundscapes in the marine, terrestrial, and aquatic realms. Recently it has been suggested that it could also be an effective method for monitoring soil soundscapes, but has ...

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological
