The Land Chief’s embers: ethnobotany of Batéké fire regimes, savanna vegetation and resource use in Gabon [PDF]

, 2010
Anthropogenic fire regimes and society are linked: social change modifies fire application which then impacts ecosystems. In the past 40 years, savanna burning has changed markedly around the world as policies, laws, and cultures change.

Floral intra‐individual variation differs between morphs and is linked to pollen deposition in self‐incompatible distylous plants

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
For most traits, floral intra‐individual variation was similar between morphs and populations with different pollinator guilds (bees and hummingbirds), potentially facilitating effective pollen transfer in distylous systems. Still, greater variation in corolla length increased pollen deposition in L‐morph flowers in the bee‐pollinated population ...

Planting diversity and density shape native plant survival and community assembly in tropical forest restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Forest restoration in Hawaii is underway due to past large‐scale conversion of forests to pastures dominated by invasive grasses. Secondary succession is limited by grass dominance and a lack of native seed rain, making outplanting a viable restoration strategy.

Tropical savanna restoration: topsoil removal and direct‐seeding promote a biodiverse and invasion‐resistant community

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Open ecosystems, such as native grasslands and savannas, cover vast tropical areas and sustain multiple ecosystem services. However, they face intense degradation due to conversion into pastures with exotic grasses that invade natural ecosystems.

A climate‐sensitive tropical urbanism under extreme heat†

Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.
Tropical urban dwellers face twin climate challenges that impinge on their quality of life: climate overheating and the urban heat island (UHI). The latter superimposed on the former to lead to high levels of thermal discomfort, carbon and energy consequences.

Effects of irrigated cover crop cultivation period on common bean and soybean yield

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Cover crop inclusion is essential for improving soil management in tropical no till systems; however, the optimal duration of irrigated off‐season cultivation remains uncertain. This 3‐year field study evaluated nine cover crop species or mixtures and four cultivation periods (60, 75, 90, and 105 days) on biomass production, soil chemical ...

Simulating Agroecology Policy Options for the Resilience of Smallholder Food Security to Climate Shocks

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2026.
Climate shocks and the agroecology–resilience nexus of smallholders. Summary of key findings: Agroecology increases smallholder resilience capacity by 8.7% in the short term under a decreased rainfall scenario, a projected 11% decline in precipitation reduces resilience by 5.6% and 14.2% in the short and long terms, respectively, and a policy‐induced ...

Modelling Climate‐Resilient Habitats for Conservation and Restoration of Isoberlinia doka Craib and Stapf and Isoberlinia tomentosa (Harms) Craib and Stapf in Benin

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2026.
Despite having similar climatic niches, woody plant species can exhibit contrasting responses to climate change. Using MaxEnt and spatial prioritization, we evaluated Isoberlinia doka and I. tomentosa under future climate scenarios (2041–2060). Despite high niche overlap (D = 0.635; I = 0.788), I. doka experienced severe habitat contraction, whereas I.
