Species identity and spatial scale drive context‑dependent tree diversity effects in a Finnish forest experiment

Oikos, EarlyView.
Tree species diversity is known to affect tree growth and leaf traits, which in turn can influence various ecosystem processes. However, the reported direction of these tree diversity effects is inconsistent, indicating that their outcomes depend strongly on ecological context.

Technological Properties of Biocomposites Produced With Agro‐Industrial Castor Waste Applicable in the Thermal Insulation of Buildings

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Biocomposites produced with agro‐industrial waste from castor hulls and pinewood bonded with urea‐formaldehyde adhesive, intended for application as thermal insulation in buildings. ABSTRACT The production of composite particleboards with agricultural waste has been the focus of many studies that aim to address environmental problems due to waste ...

Cryostratigraphy of Rhythmic Segregated Ice in Colluvium and Implications for Permafrost Slope Stability

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The amount and stratigraphic setting of ground ice in permafrost slopes is a key control on the style and magnitude of permafrost mass wasting. Understanding the spatial and stratigraphic variations in ground ice distribution on permafrost slopes is therefore a fundamental property in assessing the stability of permafrost hillslopes.

Investigating plant awareness: Image composition affects student perceptions of flora and fauna

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effect of the positoning of plants and animals in landscape photographs on their perception by students and the detail with which they get described. We conclude that the positioning of plants, among other factors, significantly influences how strongly they are perceived.
