Oikos, EarlyView.Understanding how physiological constraints scale up to realized niche differences remains a central challenge in functional ecology. Temperature strongly influences metabolic performance, activity, and habitat selection in ectotherms, yet few field studies quantify how thermal responses interact with diel and habitat structure to shape predator ...

Ecosystem engineers and functional dominance: when species loss matters for ecosystem function
Oikos, EarlyView.Understanding when and why species loss affects community function in natural communities remains an open question in ecology. Recent cross‐system analyses have shown that functional dominance is associated with whether species loss matters: in communities dominated by few high‐performing species, lost species contribute little to function.

Wild meat consumption in changing rural landscapes of Indonesian Borneo
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Wild meat can play a crucial role in the food system of rural communities residing near tropical forests. Yet, socio‐ecological changes across tropical landscapes are impacting the patterns and sustainability of meat consumption. To understand the prevalence, frequency and drivers of wild meat, domestic meat and fish consumption in this ...

Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.

Buildings as accidental habitat: Where animals nest, sleep and forage
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Animals have long inhabited human buildings alongside us, but our understanding comes from isolated studies, such as reports of a possum in the roof or a bat in our walls. What we lack is the building's perspective: which building features actually serve as habitat and for whom?

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract This perspective piece considers how a more‐than‐human approach to ethics can foster nuanced, critical understandings of the digital dimensions of nature recovery. A more‐than‐human approach expands on who or what is included as ethical actors while focusing on the interconnectedness of human and nonhuman experiences.
