Exposure to heat waves and drought improves subsequent leaf heat tolerance for five oak species in southern California

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Given the threats of climate change, we investigated the impact of high temperatures separately and in combination with reduced soil water on leaf heat tolerance for five oaks (Fagaceae) with overlapping ranges in southern California, USA: Quercus agrifolia and Q. chrysolepis (evergreen species), Q. douglasii and Q.

Forest Urbanisms

open access: yes
A radical redefinition of how humanity occupies the earth — through forestry, agriculture, and settlement — and rearticulates environmental stewardship by intertwining ecologies and urbanisms, this publication brings together essays by scholars in forestry, urbanism and other disciplines, designers, practitioners and policy makers.

Housing as Asset‐Based Welfare in Australia: An Investigation Through a Consumption Lens

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Housing asset‐based welfare has long been a key component of Australia's social policy. This resonates with a parallel literature identifying a trade‐off between homeownership and the size of nations' welfare states, wherein owner‐occupiers in smaller welfare states tend to come to rely on housing wealth to meet many of their welfare needs ...

Advancing Environmental Sustainability: The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Monitoring, Predicting, and Controlling Sulfur Dioxide Emissions

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Air pollution from sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions poses significant threats to environmental sustainability, public health, and climate change efforts. Despite advances in monitoring and regulatory frameworks, traditional methods often fall short in accuracy, scalability, and efficiency.

PhenoFECT: A Python package for forecasting and exploring plant phenology under climate change

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Climate change and global warming significantly affect the timing of plant flowering in spring. Accurately predicting these phenological events is crucial for understanding plant biology and agriculture. The chill‐day model (CDM) based on seasonal temperature changes has been a reliable model for predicting phenological activities ...

Pelvic morphology and body size in relation to the preauricular sulcus: Evidence from medieval to modern Iberia

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The preauricular sulcus has long been debated as a pelvic feature variably attributed to obstetric stress, ligamentous traction, and broader biomechanical processes. To clarify its determinants, we analyzed 409 adult individuals from three archeological and one early modern skeletal collection from the Iberian Peninsula, integrating graded ...

Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Tree species selection for the Halifax urban forest under a changing climate

open access: yes, 2011
Tree selection is critical to ensuring that urban forests are diverse, healthy, and adapted to the urban environment. Climate is one of the main controllers of plant distribution around the world, so tree species are expected to redistribute as a result ...
