Evaluating commonly used tools to quantify human activity for protected area management

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Recreation in protected areas (PAs) is growing worldwide, potentially conflicting with wildlife and ecosystem protection. Efficiently estimating human activity in PAs is crucial for balancing a dual mandate of supporting visitor access and biodiversity, but managers lack clear recommendations about the conditions under which specific tools are

Digitization connects scattered specimens and enables new historical research: Plants from the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (1881–1884)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Widespread museum digitization initiatives have made the world's herbaria more accessible than ever, launching a renaissance of specimen use. We highlight the value of digitization to bolster both scientific and historical research using the specimens from the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (1881–1884) to the Canadian arctic, remembered for its tragedy ...

Animating blossom: Time‐lapse to encourage plant awareness in the YouTube era

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Time‐lapse videos can effectively capture key traits of flower blossoms, such as color, 3D structure, and temporal changes, making them valuable complements to herbarium specimens and other botanical collections. Despite the abundance of such videos on YouTube, most provide no ecological and botanical insights.

The shared benefits of fallen fruits: A novel mechanism stabilizing a nursery pollination mutualism between Sambucus and kateretid beetles

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how cooperative interactions remain stable matters for biodiversity because many plants rely on specialist insects that can also impose reproductive costs. We studied the interaction between Sambucus sieboldiana and seed‐consuming Heterhelus beetles through detailed field observations and pollination experiments.

According to whom? Spousal, household, and plot differences in improved cassava variety adoption in Nigeria

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Agricultural innovations underpin most investments that aim to increase agricultural productivity globally. Improved crop varieties have historically constituted the bulwark of agricultural innovation outputs and are credited with the success of large‐scale interventions such as the Green Revolution. Much research has shown, however, that gender shapes

Using Trail Cameras to Monitor Culvert Connectivity in Wadeable Streams

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic barriers in aquatic habitats have led to fragmentation and decreased fish diversity worldwide. Road crossing barriers such as culverts are a significant source of fragmentation and can impede aquatic organism passage (AOP). Many large extent efforts to inventory road crossing barriers and prioritize restoration efforts do not ...
