Predator density outweighs experimental warming effects on short‐term carbon and nitrogen loss from arctic shrub litter

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Rapid climate change in the Arctic is altering biological communities and their subsequent effects on ecosystem functioning. For example, warming‐induced shrub expansion accelerates biogeochemical cycles in part by increasing high‐quality litter inputs.

Multiple scales of fear: foraging behaviour of white‐naped jays in semiarid landscapes

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animals must constantly balance the need to find resources with the risk of predation. Not only avoiding direct encounters with predators but also assessing the overall risk of their environment using cues, social information or habitat traits at multiple spatial and temporal scales.

Anisotropic community turn‐over at habitat edges informs on assembly drivers: simulation and empirical test on soil macrofauna

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Biodiversity dynamics in heterogeneous landscapes is the result of a complex interplay between movement processes of organisms within and between habitat patches, and niche filtering processes due to spatially varying environmental conditions. Disentangling the relative influences of these different processes on community assembly and dynamics is a ...

Enhancing the Oxygen Evolution Performance by Introducing NiO‐Supported Mesoporous Titanium Dioxide

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
Herein, a schematic representation of the synthesis of NiO‐supported mesoporous TiO2 is reported. The process involves self‐assembly of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), Ti(acac)2, nickel salt, and ethanol, followed by solvent evaporation, thermal polymerization, and stepwise calcination under N2 (350 °C) and air (450 °C) to remove PVP and carbon, yielding ...

Culture, Community, and Development: Unpacking the ‘Socio‐Cultural Milieu Dynamics’ of Solomon Islands and Their Influence on Australia's Aid Localisation

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using public ethnography anchored in the post‐development theory and interpretivist epistemological paradigm, this study examines what we term the ‘socio‐cultural milieus dynamics’ (SCMD) of the Solomon Islands (SI) and how these shape meaning, discourse, and practice in ways that influence Australia's aid localisation efforts and aid outcomes.
