Accidental plant poisonings in France: Lessons from a decade of national toxicovigilance

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Accidental plant poisonings reveal how modern societies are losing everyday botanical knowledge once central to food and health safety. By analyzing a decade of French toxicovigilance data, this study shows that most severe cases arise from plant misidentification or misguided self‐medication.

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Emergent Innovation in Systemic Programme Design: Retrospective Reflections on the Development of a Student‐Centred Masters in Systems Thinking

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Our theory of education, based on a systemic understanding of the subjective and intersubjective construction of knowledge, is that students are motivated to study what is most meaningful to them. Meaningfulness is grounded in the students' prior experiences, which are highly diverse.

The wolf is back! Non‐consumptive effects of the return of a large carnivore on the use of supplementary feeding sites by roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus

An Overview of High‐Temperature Superconducting Cables in DC Systems: Unlocking Potential for High‐Voltage DC Networks

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper provides an overview of high‐temperature superconducting (HTS) cables in DC systems, with a focus on their deployment in high‐voltage DC (HVDC) networks. The assessment of HTS cable properties—such as extremely low electrical resistance, high current‐carrying capacity and a compact geometry—and their comparison with those of ...

‘Reinventing’ the Beach? Lessons from a Local Development Plan in the French Riviera

The Political Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Coastal squeeze is now so tangible both globally and locally that the focus of scientific debate has expanded from the erosion of beaches to the risk of their disappearance. In this context, it is crucial to explore local development plans that aim to preserve the long‐term existence of a beach.
