From autonomous to autonomist geographies (2022)
Journal Article
Gray, N., & Clare, N. (2022). From autonomous to autonomist geographies. Progress in Human Geography, 46(5), 1185-1206. https://doi.org/10.1177/03091325221114347

Autonomist Marxist ideas and concepts are resurgent and, with their latent spatiality, are well placed to contribute to radical geographical debates. In particular, the methodology of ‘class composition’ analysis provides a rigorous, materialist crit... Read More about From autonomous to autonomist geographies.

Pollen‐based reconstruction reveals the impact of the onset of agriculture on plant functional trait composition (2022)
Journal Article
Veeken, A., Santos, M. J., McGowan, S., Davies, A. L., & Schrodt, F. (2022). Pollen‐based reconstruction reveals the impact of the onset of agriculture on plant functional trait composition. Ecology Letters, 25(9), 1937-1951. https://doi.org/10.1111/ele.14063

The onset of agriculture improved the capacity of ecosystems to produce food, but inadvertently altered other vital ecosystem functions. Plant traits play a central role in determining ecosystem properties, therefore we investigated how the onset of...

Globally widespread and increasing violations of environmental flow envelopes (2022)
Journal Article
Virkki, V., Alanärä, E., Porkka, M., Ahopelto, L., Gleeson, T., Mohan, C., …Kummu, M. (2022). Globally widespread and increasing violations of environmental flow envelopes. Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 26(12), 3315-3336. https://doi.org/10.5194/hess-26-3315-2022

Human actions and climate change have drastically altered river flows across the world, resulting in adverse effects on riverine ecosystems. Environmental flows (EFs) have emerged as a prominent tool for safeguarding the riverine ecosystems, but at t...

A global synthesis of ecosystem services provided and disrupted by freshwater bivalve molluscs (2022)
Journal Article
Zieritz, A., Sousa, R., Aldridge, D. C., Douda, K., Esteves, E., Ferreira-Rodríguez, N., …Vaz, A. S. (2022). A global synthesis of ecosystem services provided and disrupted by freshwater bivalve molluscs. Biological Reviews, 97(5), 1967-1998. https://doi.org/10.1111/brv.12878

Identification of ecosystem services, i.e. the contributions that ecosystems make to human well-being, has proven instrumental in galvanising public and political support for safeguarding biodiversity and its benefits to people. Here we synthesise th... Read More about A global synthesis of ecosystem services provided and disrupted by freshwater bivalve molluscs.

The timing of unprecedented hydrological drought under climate change (2022)
Journal Article
Satoh, Y., Yoshimura, K., Pokhrel, Y., Kim, H., Shiogama, H., Yokohata, T., …Oki, T. (2022). The timing of unprecedented hydrological drought under climate change. Nature Communications, 13(1), Article 3287. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-30729-2

Droughts that exceed the magnitudes of historical variation ranges could occur increasingly frequently under future climate conditions. However, the time of the emergence of unprecedented drought conditions under climate change has rarely been examin...

High exposure of global tree diversity to human pressure (2022)
Journal Article
Guo, W., Serra-Diaz, J. M., Schrodt, F., Eiserhardt, W. L., Maitner, B. S., Merow, C., …Svenning, J. (2022). High exposure of global tree diversity to human pressure. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 119(25), Article e2026733119. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2026733119

Safeguarding Earth’s tree diversity is a conservation priority due to the importance of trees for biodiversity and ecosystem functions and services such as carbon sequestration. Here, we improve the foundation for effective conservation of global tre... Read More about High exposure of global tree diversity to human pressure.

Nutrient availability in the North Pacific region not primarily driven by climate through the Quaternary (2022)
Journal Article
Snelling, A. M., Swann, G. E., Pashley, V., Lacey, J. H., Horstwood, M. S., & Leng, M. J. (2022). Nutrient availability in the North Pacific region not primarily driven by climate through the Quaternary. Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 601, Article 111109. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.palaeo.2022.111109

The subarctic North Pacific Ocean is a relatively understudied region in terms of palaeoclimate, limiting our understanding of how the region has both driven and responded to palaeoenvironmental events. Today, the subarctic North Pacific Ocean is mar... Read More about Nutrient availability in the North Pacific region not primarily driven by climate through the Quaternary.

A possible role for river restoration enhancing biodiversity through interaction with wildfire (2022)
Journal Article
Pugh, B. E., Colley, M., Dugdale, S. J., Edwards, P., Flitcroft, R., Holz, A., Johnson, M., Mariani, M., Means‐Brous, M., Meyer, K., Moffett, K. B., Renan, L., Schrodt, F., Thorne, C., Valman, S., Wijayratne, U., & Field, R. (2022). A possible role for river restoration enhancing biodiversity through interaction with wildfire. Global Ecology and Biogeography, 31(10), 1990-2004. https://doi.org/10.1111/geb.13555

Background: Historically, wildfire regimes produced important landscape-scale disturbances in many regions globally. The “pyrodiversity begets biodiversity” hypothesis suggests that wildfires that generate temporally and spatially heterogeneous mosai...
