IET Networks, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract This research aims to study the intelligent wireless sensor to improve the water permeability of permeable asphalt concrete pavement. The water permeability of pavement is extremely important for the traffic environment. This study first briefly introduces the background and significance analysis, and then exemplifies the deployment algorithm ...

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.

The place bonding potential of nature‐based citizen science with refugee children and youth
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Nature‐based citizen science often involves close interaction with places. In addition to providing benefits, such as learning opportunities and contact with nature, it can facilitate and shape bonds between people and places. Research exploring the place bonding potential of such projects is still in its infancy. This paper addresses this gap

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Peri‐urban areas in West Africa are expanding rapidly, often with limited planning and growing exposure to climate risks. Our study shows that agroforestry systems in these landscapes, especially diverse home gardens, can store substantial amounts of carbon when they include structurally complex stands and species with traits that favor biomass ...

An urban evolved invasive plant tolerates experimental climate change
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Urbanization may drive invasive species evolution, resulting in greater invasion risks as global conditions change. We compared urban populations of the invasive Erigeron annuus in Zagreb, Croatia, to surrounding rural populations and found that urban‐evolved populations were more tolerant of experimental warming and drought than rural populations ...
