Abstract Conservation performance payments are becoming an increasingly popular instrument to tackle human–wildlife conflicts. In Sweden, Sámi communities practicing reindeer husbandry receive performance payments as compensation for reindeer losses caused by lynxes and wolverines.

The impact of COVID‐19 on public perceptions of wild meat in Central Africa
Abstract Wild meat is a significant source of food and income generation in Central Africa. However, there is little knowledge of how the assumed link between COVID‐19 and wild meat consumption has been discussed by the media and received by the public. In this study, we conducted media content analysis of 264 articles published in 2019–2020 related to

The dynamics of wild and alternative meat consumption across Gabon, Central Africa
Abstract Long‐term overharvesting of wild animals for their meat threatens wildlife and the people dependent on wild animal meat for their diets and incomes. Interventions to reduce wild meat consumption must be built upon a complete understanding of the roles of wild meat and its alternatives within food systems.

Combinatorial interpretations of the Jacobi-Stirling numbers
14 pagesThe Jacobi-Stirling numbers of the first and second kinds were introduced in 2006 in the spectral theory and are polynomial refinements of the Legendre-Stirling numbers.

The Hankel Transform of q-Noncentral Bell Numbers
We define two forms of q-analogue of noncentral Stirling numbers of the second kind and obtain some properties parallel to those of noncentral Stirling numbers.

Closed formulas for special bell polynomials by Stirling numbers and associate Stirling numbers
We derive two explicit formulas for two sequences of special values of the Bell polynomials of the second kind in terms of associate Stirling numbers of the second kind, give an explicit formula for associate Stirling numbers of the second kind in terms of the Stirling numbers of the second kind, and, consequently, present two explicit ...

Abstract Forests and woodlands are important for biodiversity, climate change mitigation and the provision of services including recreation, timber and non‐timber forest products. Land use policies currently aim to increase forest cover while also maximising the benefits of forests for people and improving community engagement with the process of ...

In this paper, we introduce a kind of combinatorial numbers, D − Stirling numbers, and its special cases. An exponential generating function of the D − Stirling numbers is given. We also present recurrence relations, monotonicity, and limiting properties

ABSTRACT This study examines how integrating sustainability through socio‐scientific issue (SSI) in secondary chemistry teaching shapes epistemic openness and closure from a decolonial perspective, as mediated through classroom discourse. Drawing on a co‐planned lesson on copper mining in Chile – a scientifically rich yet ethically and politically ...
