No Time to Waste: A Synthesis of Evidence on Time Reallocation Following Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Interventions

open access: yesJournal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large amounts of time are wasted globally accessing water for domestic uses and sanitation, disproportionately impacting women and girls. We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis based on evidence mapping initiatives. Our synthesis of the evidence found a mean reduction of 15 min per trip for water supply interventions, and 3 min per

Affective Affordances, Networked Status Quo, and Climate Communication: An Analysis of the Mobilization of Affect on Facebook

open access: yesSocial Media + Society
This study achieves two objectives: (1) define two specific affordances—affective embedding and rendering—capturing the connection between affect and social media affordances from the perspectives of designers and end-users, and (2) examine the ...

Timing of calcification and environmental variability determine pH proxy fidelity in coastal calcifying macroalgae

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐lived calcifying marine biota are increasingly used as paleo‐archives for reconstructing ocean pH. They enable exploration of the rate and magnitude of ocean acidification in shallow‐water ecosystems serving as proxies for environmental pH reconstruction.

Enhanced benthic biodiversity and primary productivity with reduced turbidity in a coastal receiving environment

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Sediment loading from land and turbidity in coastal waters has increased because of human activities in coastal catchments and through climate‐related increases in storm intensity and frequency. Here, we investigated changes in coastal seafloor biodiversity and ecosystem function across a suspended sediment concentration gradient in a New ...

From temperate to polar waters: Transition to non‐cyanobacterial diazotrophy upon entering the Atlantic gateway of the Arctic Ocean

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Nitrogen fixation, the microbial reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia, is increasingly recognized to occur in the Arctic Ocean. However, knowledge about the composition, biogeography, abundance, and ecology of nitrogen‐fixing organisms (diazotrophs) is poor.

Mixing regimes in tropical high‐mountain Andean lakes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Lowland tropical lakes deeper than 15 m are typically warm monomictic, but whether the regime may switch to polymixis at high elevations remains uncertain. Using a year‐long high‐frequency dataset from thermistor chains from 10 deep lakes and occasional temperature profiles from 202 lakes in Ecuador's Cajas Massif, this study examines the ...

Warming enhances primary production and respiration and changes plankton community structure in an estuarine upwelling system

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine heatwaves are expected to become more frequent and intense due to global climate change, potentially impacting plankton communities. In the present study, the effects of a simulated short‐term warming event on the structure and functioning of coastal plankton communities were investigated during a mesocosm experiment conducted with ...

A large, infrequent ecosystem subsidy (cicada carcasses) and warming additively accelerate development and increase growth of larval amphibians

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Many ecosystems receive resource subsidies that affect productivity and food webs. Ecosystem subsidies vary in quantity, quality, and timing, and effects are often mediated by environmental factors, including temperature. Deposition of periodical cicada carcasses into ponds represents a large, high‐quality, infrequent subsidy.
