Butterfly abundances but not patch occupancy buffered by vegetation heterogeneity during climatic extremes

Ecography, EarlyView.
As extreme climatic events are becoming more frequent, we need to understand what mechanisms could buffer populations to ensure their persistence. Fragmented populations may be especially vulnerable, as exemplified by species with metapopulation dynamics whose persistence is determined by a precarious balance between frequent local extinctions and ...

Bio‐Inspired Sclerotization of Lignin: A Robust Adhesive for Photothermal Wood‐Based Panels

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A high‐performance lignin adhesive is engineered via an insect‐inspired sclerotization strategy involving oxidation and hyperbranched polymer grafting, overcoming lignin's adhesion failure, and yielding a wet shear strength of 1.02–1.21 MPa. The adhesive endows wood‐based panels with photothermal functionality; building energy simulations indicate HVAC‐

Unraveling the Interplay Between Collaborative Governance and Experimentation for Transformative Potential in Circular Water Systems: A Dutch Case Study

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Freshwater availability is a critical climate change challenge in coastal delta regions. This challenge requires a transformative change toward circular water management. While experimentation and collaborative governance are recognized as enablers of transformative change, their interaction remains complex and insufficiently understood ...

Does Context Really Matter for Environmental Policy Implementation? A Systematic Comparison of Implementation Determinants

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental policy addresses wicked problems such as climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution—issues marked by complexity, conflicting objectives, and stakeholder resistance. After often‐contested policy formulation, implementers face intense pressure to deliver results.

Everyone Knows It's a Hoax: The Role of Perceived Descriptive Norms in Conspiracy Beliefs

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People's belief in conspiracy theories is shaped by social influence processes. This contribution investigated these processes in six studies (total N = 2906) by examining the role of descriptive norms, that is, the perception that others endorse conspiracy theories.
