Wildlife in the Digital Anthropocene: Examining human-animal relations through surveillance technologies (2021)
Journal Article
von Essen, E., Turnbull, J., Searle, A., Jørgensen, F. A., Hofmeester, T. R., & van der Wal, R. (2023). Wildlife in the Digital Anthropocene: Examining human-animal relations through surveillance technologies. Environment and Planning E: Nature and Space, 6(1), 679-699. https://doi.org/10.1177/25148486211061704

Digital surveillance technologies enable a range of publics to observe the private lives of wild animals. Publics can now encounter wildlife from their smartphones, home computers, and other digital devices. These technologies generate public-wildlif...

Climatic and soil factors explain the two-dimensional spectrum of global plant trait variation (2021)
Journal Article
Joswig, J. S., Wirth, C., Schuman, M. C., Kattge, J., Reu, B., Wright, I. J., …Mahecha, M. D. (2021). Climatic and soil factors explain the two-dimensional spectrum of global plant trait variation. Nature Ecology and Evolution, 6, 36-50. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-021-01616-8

Plant functional traits can predict community assembly and ecosystem functioning and are thus widely used in global models of vegetation dynamics and land–climate feedbacks. Still, we lack a global understanding of how land and climate affect plant t... Read More about Climatic and soil factors explain the two-dimensional spectrum of global plant trait variation.

Effects of seasonality on access to improved water in Benue State, Nigeria (2021)
Journal Article
Aondoakaa, S. C., & Jewitt, S. (2022). Effects of seasonality on access to improved water in Benue State, Nigeria. Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 194(1), Article 40. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10661-021-09454-8

Many people switch sources of drinking water and sanitation between seasons, yet such shifts are not reflected in the reporting of access to improved water and sanitation services by the Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP). Drawing on quantitative and q... Read More about Effects of seasonality on access to improved water in Benue State, Nigeria.

TIME to Change: Rethinking Humanitarian Energy Access (2021)
Journal Article
Robinson, B., Clifford, M., & Jewitt, S. (2022). TIME to Change: Rethinking Humanitarian Energy Access. Energy Research and Social Science, 86, Article 102453. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.erss.2021.102453

Achieving Sustainable Development Goal 7-universal access to affordable, reliable and modern energy services by 2030-represents a considerable challenge. Currently, 40% of the global population do not have access to sustainable energy sources, and in... Read More about TIME to Change: Rethinking Humanitarian Energy Access.

Diversity of European habitat types is correlated with geography more than climate and human pressure (2021)
Journal Article
Cervellini, M., Di Musciano, M., Zannini, P., Fattorini, S., Jiménez‐Alfaro, B., Agrillo, E., …Chiarucci, A. (2021). Diversity of European habitat types is correlated with geography more than climate and human pressure. Ecology and Evolution, 11(24), 18111-18124. https://doi.org/10.1002/ece3.8409

Habitat richness, that is, the diversity of ecosystem types, is a complex, spatially explicit aspect of biodiversity, which is affected by bioclimatic, geographic, and anthropogenic variables. The distribution of habitat types is a key component for... Read More about Diversity of European habitat types is correlated with geography more than climate and human pressure.

Reimagining geographies of public finance (2021)
Journal Article
August, M., Cohen, D., Danyluk, M., Kass, A., Ponder, C. S., & Rosenman, E. (2022). Reimagining geographies of public finance. Progress in Human Geography, 46(2), 527-548. https://doi.org/10.1177/03091325211054963

The study of public finance—the role of government in the economy—has faded in geography as attention to private finance has grown. Disrupting the tendency to fetishize private financial power, this article proposes an expanded conception of public f... Read More about Reimagining geographies of public finance.

Best practices for monitoring and assessing the ecological response to river restoration (2021)

Impacts of Forest Fire on Understory Species Diversity in Canary Pine Ecosystems on the Island of La Palma (2021)
Journal Article
Weiser, F., Sauer, A., Gettueva, D., Field, R., Irl, S. D., Vetaas, O., …Beierkuhnlein, C. (2021). Impacts of Forest Fire on Understory Species Diversity in Canary Pine Ecosystems on the Island of La Palma. Forests, 12(12), Article 1638. https://doi.org/10.3390/f12121638

Forest fires are drivers of spatial patterns and temporal dynamics of vegetation and biodiversity. On the Canary Islands, large areas of pine forest exist, dominated by the endemic Canary Island pine, Pinus canariensis C. Sm. These mostly natural for...
