Functional diversity in agricultural landscapes: evidence of long‐term clustering and multi‐scale effects of land use on avian communities

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Functional diversity (FD) is an essential community property connecting biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and conservation objectives. In agricultural landscapes, avian communities, which play key functional roles, are facing large‐scale biodiversity erosion, largely due to land‐use changes.

From the brink of extinction to regulation: northern Europe's white‐tailed eagles now face density dependence and climate constraints after rapid population growth

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Population growth reflects the combined influence of regulation and density‐independent factors operating through demographic processes. Under exceptional circumstances (e.g. populations recovering from near‐extinction), growth may initially be weakly regulated but typically slows as negative density dependence (NDD) sets in.

Toward a Framework for Understanding Localization in Its Institutional Context: A Systems Perspective for Incorporating Local Values

open access: yesPublic Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores how we might integrate local traditional values into a systems approach for analyzing and maximizing localization in the context of foreign aid. The paper situates localization and its operationalization in the older and broader literature on the political economy of foreign aid.
