The Geographical Journal, EarlyView.Short Abstract Risks to soil health from increased flooding and drought due to climate change are a priority risk area for the UK government, but our analysis of two years of UK newspaper coverage on this issue reveals very little attention to it. Our multimodal framing analysis shows that news reports are largely devoid of addressing the root causes ...

Ibis, EarlyView.Artificial breeding structures, such as nestboxes, can potentially influence the population size and conservation status of bird species relying on heavily human‐modified environments such as agroecosystems and urban areas. However, the effectiveness of these interventions may vary, as artificial structures could attract individuals to suboptimal ...

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Extreme heat can push plants beyond their thermal safety margin (TSM) if maximum leaf temperature (Tleaf_max) exceeds leaf critical temperature (Tcrit). The TSM is potentially useful for assessing heat vulnerability across species but needs further validation, so we exposed 50 tree/shrub species in controlled glasshouses to a 6‐day heatwave ...

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.

Social Policy &Administration, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While structural factors such as the allocation of resources and responsibilities have traditionally been seen as the key determinants of policy change and stability, the ideas of the people responsible for managing these resources can be just as consequential, especially in value‐laden policy areas such as combating homelessness.
