Investigating plant awareness: Methodologies, challenges and possibilities

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Plants are crucial for sustaining life on Earth, and understanding human relationships to plants is key to ensuring that the role of plants is recognized in biology research. This goal cannot be achieved without valid and reliable methods that describe, explain and predict how humans experience plants.

Trees, society, and the path toward resilient ecosystems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Over 3 trillion trees occupy the Earth's land surface, mostly in tropical and subtropical forests. These trees provide vital ecosystem services, such as climate regulation, carbon sequestration, and habitat and food provision. Trees are also deeply interconnected with humans, offering social and cultural values.

The current state of peas in the United Kingdom; diversity, heritage and food systems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Landraces and traditional pea varieties hold great potential for enhancing agrobiodiversity and promoting pulse consumption, offering a rich historical and cultural resource for the UK food system. Unfortunately, many traditional pea varieties are lost, and those saved are often kept in seed banks or used only by small‐scale growers.

Temporal and spatial dynamics of a local wind in Japan, “Kiyokawa‐dashi”: Insights from high‐density observations and numerical simulations

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We studied a renowned local wind in Japan, “Kiyokawa‐dashi,” with a numerical model and high‐density observations at approximately 1‐km intervals. “Kiyokawa‐dashi” typically begins with intense winds descending onto a confined area leeward of a gorge at the initiation stage and expands over the entire plain at the mature stage.

Rivers as Natural Capital Assets: A Quick Scoping Review to Assess the Evidence Linking River Asset Condition to Changes in the Flow of Ecosystem Services

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT River managers are beginning to adopt natural capital approaches in practice. However, while it is crucial for river management, the link between river asset condition and the flow of ecosystem services is poorly understood. In this study, we conducted a Quick Scoping Review (QSR) of the research into river asset condition and ecosystem ...
