Late Holocene environmental history of Dojran, Macedonia: Investigating the interplay of imperial dynamics and climatic change

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a high‐resolution, multi‐proxy reconstruction of environmental and land‐use change from Lake Dojran over historical times (last 2500 years), combining pollen, biomarkers, radiocarbon dating, Ottoman taxation records and other historical data.

Impact of climate‐induced compositional shifts of ethanol and acidity on aroma release and perception in red wine: a case study on γ‐nonalactone and massoia lactone

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change‐driven warming is increasing wine ethanol, promoting an atypical convergence between pH and titratable acidity (TA), and favouring the accumulation of specific wine volatiles: γ‐nonalactone (γ‐C9) and massoia lactone (MLac).

Phenolic profile of selected grape (Vitis vinifera L.) varieties in the course of ripening and Botrytis cinerea infections

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Grapevine phenolic compounds play key roles in plant defense and wine quality. Composition depends on factors such as maturity and infections such as grey mold caused by Botrytis cinerea. Grapevines respond to infections by actively modifying their phenolic profile.

Topic: Smallholder Farmers' Adaptation Practices to the Effects of Land Degradation on Livelihoods in Semi‐Arid Ghana

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although several environmental challenges exist globally, land degradation is the greatest threat and risk factor wedging human livelihoods. Despite widespread awareness of climate change, little empirical evidence exists on land degradation and its impacts on livelihoods in semi‐arid agroecological systems.

Inequalities in intraspecific plant–lemur interactions drive seed dispersal patterns

Oikos, EarlyView.
Biotic interactions occur between individuals and accumulate to shape species‐level interaction structure across a community. Skewed interaction structures, where a few individuals are highly connected and most have few interactions, are increasingly identified at the individual‐level.

Fruit‐quality tradeoffs generate asymmetry in plant reliance on mutualistic frugivores

Oikos, EarlyView.
Seed dispersal is a fundamental ecological process influencing the evolution of plant life‐history strategies. In fleshy‐fruited plants dispersed by mutualistic frugivores, variation in fruit traits among closely related species may shape the temporal and spatial dynamics of dispersal events critical to population success.

A plant–pollinator invasional meltdown: the Japanese pagoda tree Styphnolobium japonicum facilitates the invasion of the giant resin bee Megachile sculpturalis

Oikos, EarlyView.
An invasional meltdown can occur when a non‐native species facilitates the spread of another non‐native species in the invaded area, increasing its likelihood of survival or its ecological impact. Plant–pollinator systems pose an exceptional study system to test this concept, which remains poorly known.

The impact of zoo education programmes on connection to nature considering programme type, participants' demographics and their initial connection

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Participants in environmental education programmes can have different preexisting attitudes and experiences that could influence the educational outcomes. The present study focuses on zoo education and its goal of connecting people to nature.

What is ‘relational thinking’, and how does it manifest in research?

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract People and Nature is a ‘journal of relational thinking’. This editorial explores what relational thinking can mean and how it might be operationalized in the context of humans and the environment. Relational thinking may seem intuitive because it recognizes the world's inherent interconnectedness. However, the question of how to operationalize
