Vegetation on the move: elevational shifts and greening dynamics across the Himalayan alpine zone

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
This study investigates alpine ‘vegetation line' (the upper limit of continuous plant community) dynamics in the Himalayan alpine zone (HAZ) over a 24‐year timescale (1999–2022) using maximum NDVI products derived from Landsat series datasets, adjusted for sampling bias using phenological modelling.

Over three‐quarters of earthworm species lack protection in China, a crisis exacerbated by climate change

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Earthworms, as ‘ecosystem engineers', play a crucial role in regulating ecosystem functions and shaping community structures. Due to climate change, earthworms face severe survival pressures and extinction risks. However, whether conservation efforts targeting aboveground biodiversity can cover the long‐neglected earthworm diversity remains unknown. To

Framing Effects on Public Support and Behavioral Responses to Sustainable Forest Management in South Korea

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite South Korea's extensive forest coverage, which accounts for approximately 63% of its total land area, the country imports over 83% of its timber needs and has shown a gradual decline in forest carbon sequestration capacity. The Circular Forest Management Policy (CFMP) addresses these challenges through systematic forest resource ...

Design and Synthesis of Lactose‐Derived Ligands and Their Application in Asymmetric Friedel–Crafts Alkylation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
This work describes the synthesis of lactose‐ and glucose‐derived chiral ligands and their application in the catalytic enantioselective Friedel–Crafts alkylation of indole with a series of trans‐β‐nitrostyrenes. The optimal ligand was an acetate protected, lactose‐derived pyridyl imine and its zinc complex afforded ees up to 93% and yields up to 93 ...

What Could Have Been: Predicted and Actual Exclusion by Potential Romantic Partners and Platonic Friends

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Romantic partners are instrumental to more goals than friends, and therefore, people have more to lose when denied a romantic relationship than a friendship. We explored people's forecasted and experienced rejection by a potential romantic partner or friend.

Subsistence harvest for food and pets associated with declining global mammal populations

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Subsistence harvest can have substantial impacts on mammalian biodiversity, yet its effects on the conservation status of mammal species are poorly understood. We analyzed trade and use data in species accounts from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List to examine the effects of subsistence harvest on the conservation ...
