Positive impacts of agri‐environment schemes on butterflies from multiple evidence sources
Our results provide support for positive effects of AES on butterflies in England from multiple sources of evidence, providing confidence that these schemes are providing tangible benefits for butterflies. Our recommendations for managers and policy makers are (1) multiple data sources should be considered for AES monitoring and evaluation, exploiting ...

In R (Finch) v Surrey County Council, the Supreme Court held by a 3:2 majority that Surrey County Council's decision to grant planning permission for an onshore crude oil extraction project was unlawful. The environmental assessment accompanying the application for planning permission – a legally required assessment of the ‘direct and indirect effects’

Closed‐Form Hypoplastic Solutions for Normally Consolidated Soil in Element Tests
ABSTRACT The hypoplastic theory has gained significant attraction in the geomechanics community for constitutive modeling and numerical simulation. However, the absence of an analytical benchmark for numerical simulations incorporating the hypoplastic model remains a notable gap. This study revisits the basic hypoplastic model for normally consolidated

Abstract Large variations in ground electric field in mid‐latitude countries like the UK during a geomagnetic storm drive so‐called geomagnetically induced current, a major geohazard to ground‐based technological infrastructure like electrical transformers at high voltage substations, gas pipelines and railway signaling.

Existing water environment policy, mostly focused on the siloed management of large waters, has not succeeded in restoring freshwater biodiversity in England and Wales. This study outlines the Freshwater Network approach: a conceptual framework and analytical tool which addresses limitations of the current regulatory framework, combining voluntary and ...

Abstract The Wealden Group of southern England was deposited during the late Berriasian to early Aptian interval. It records a critical time in the development of iguanodontian dinosaur diversity, which increased from low levels during the Jurassic to higher levels in the Aptian and Albian. A new iguanodontian dinosaur, Istiorachis macarthurae gen.

Six Spanish mid‐mountain catchments in a transitional Atlantic–Mediterranean ecotone reveal a westward expansion of Mediterranean climate: reduced spring precipitation in historically Atlantic catchments and increased autumn rainfall, coupled with rising temperatures and widespread greening.

Abstract The Basque‐Cantabrian Pyrenees experienced Early Cretaceous rifting and latest Cretaceous to Cenozoic inversion, with the presence of prerift Upper Triassic Keuper salt influencing how deformation was accommodated. Considerable disagreement exists on the degree of decoupling of supra‐ and subsalt deformation, the amount of thin‐skinned ...

The Base Cretaceous unconformity in Southwest Britain, Iberia, and adjacent North Atlantic basins is a composite of at least three unconformities formed during the Middle Jurassic, Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous, and Mid‐Cretaceous. Seismic data reveal that the Jurassic–Early Cretaceous unconformity, linked to Berriasian uplift and North Atlantic ...
