Life‐history traits and phylogeny structure taxon‐specific species–substrate relationships in deadwood

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
To understand the structuring of species assemblages, integrating life‐history traits and evolutionary heritage in analyses is vital. This allows the assessment of a mechanistic link between species and their environment. Deadwood systems are vital for nutrient cycling and biodiversity support, governed by complex intra‐ and inter‐specific fungal and ...

Combined storytelling and mapping approaches for increasing community engagement with woodland creation and expansion projects

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Forests and woodlands are important for biodiversity, climate change mitigation and the provision of services including recreation, timber and non‐timber forest products. Land use policies currently aim to increase forest cover while also maximising the benefits of forests for people and improving community engagement with the process of ...

Digital fire technologies and community networks: Cultivating just sociotechnical practices for living with planetary change

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Fires are expanding in frequency and intensity worldwide due to climate change and land‐use transformations. At the same time, fire often plays a regenerative role in ecosystems. Traditional and cultural practices incorporate fire use for landscape management and landscape renewal. In this complex matrix of fire ecologies, digital technologies

Management of Wildfire Risk in the European Union

open access: yes
Wildfires pose a significant and increasing risk across the European Union (EU). In 2023, wildfires burned over 500,000 ha of land, marking it as the fourth-largest area burned annually on record in the EU. In the same year, Greece experienced the largest wildfire ever recorded in Europe, burning 96,000 ha in the area of Alexandroupolis. With change in

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice

open access: yesPeople 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 Diffusion of Risk Management Assistance for Wildland Fire Management in the United States

open access: yesFire
The wildland fire management system is increasingly complex and uncertain, which challenges suppression actions and increases stress on an already strained system.

A Spatiotemporal Wildfire Risk Prediction Framework Integrating Density-Based Clustering and GTWR-RFR

open access: yes
Accurate wildfire prediction and identification of key environmental drivers are critical for effective wildfire management. We propose a spatiotemporally adaptive framework integrating ST-DBSCAN clustering with GTWR-RFR.

FIREFIGHTS AND FUEL MANAGEMENT: A NESTED ROTATION MODEL FOR WILDFIRE RISK MITIGATION [PDF]

open access: yes
Scientists and policymakers are increasingly aware that wildfire management efforts should be broadened beyond the century-long emphasis on suppression to include more effective efforts at fuel management.

From traditional practice to unsustainable exploitation: Fruit overharvesting on the endangered relict palm Jubaea chilensis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Overharvesting of wild edible plants poses a growing threat to plant populations worldwide, particularly for slow‐growing species with limited regeneration. We quantified fruit extraction from the third‐largest known population of Jubaea chilensis—an endangered palm endemic to Chile—modeled the critical harvest threshold, and assessed consumer ...
