Variations in the temperature response of photosynthesis among nine common tree species planted in Singapore

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change
Tree planting is regarded as one of the most cost-effective ways to mitigate climate change impacts. As part of the global tree planting movement, the tropical city-state of Singapore initiated a project to plant one million trees in 10 years.

Competition explains tropical tree species coexistence and abundance

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract The numerous tree species co-occurring in tropical forests presents a challenging puzzle1. Conventional competition models suggest that such coexistence is improbable2–7, but this study offers a novel solution. By modelling interspecific competition as both competitive intensity and susceptibility, we provide conditions for stable ...

Biogeography of intertidal invertebrates is influenced by latitude along the west coast of Australia

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Along the west coast of Australia, intertidal rock platforms support high invertebrate diversities that provide vital ecosystem services, yet patterns in diversity are not well understood. Here, we document and examine the invertebrate assemblages on intertidal rock platforms in Western Australia and delineate ecoregions according to assemblage ...

Tracing the origins and evolution of nymphalid butterflies (Lepidoptera) in the Atlantic Forest

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding the relative roles of diversification and dispersal is key to explaining large‐scale biogeographical patterns. Although both processes are known to shape biodiversity, their relative contributions remain understudied for many organisms. Here, we examine how these processes have jointly contributed to the exceptional diversity and endemism

High‐Voltage Stability of LiCoO2 Cathode Materials Composited With Vanadium‐Based Glass Coatings

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Vanadium‐based glasses show fluidity and good wettability toward other materials at low temperatures. The controlled precipitation of nanocrystals in vanadium‐based glasses enhances the material's mechanical properties and electrical conductivity. The VPFL coatings bond to the LiCoO2 interface via chemical bonds.

Bridging Cross‐Scale Science–Policy Interfaces for Coherent Land‐Use Governance: Knowledge Co‐Production and Uptake in Kenya's Polycentric System

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land is fundamental to livelihoods and ecosystem health but faces mounting pressure from human activities, climate change, and competing development demands. Science–policy interfaces (SPIs)—platforms that connect experts and policymakers—are vital for co‐producing knowledge to inform coherent, sustainable land‐use governance.

Tree community variation in a tropical continental island according to slope aspect and human interference

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2018
Associating description of unrecorded tropical tree community structure to sampling approaches that can help determine mechanisms behind floristic variation is important to further the comprehension of how plant species coexist at tropical forests. Thus,
