Unoccupied aerial vehicles as a tool to map lizard operative temperature in tropical environments (2024)
Journal Article
Higgins, E. A., Boyd, D. S., Brown, T. W., Owen, S. C., van der Heijden, G. M. F., & Algar, A. C. (2024). Unoccupied aerial vehicles as a tool to map lizard operative temperature in tropical environments. Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, https://doi.org/10.1002/rse2.393

To understand how ectotherms will respond to warming temperatures, we require information on thermal habitat quality at spatial resolutions and extents relevant to the organism. Measuring thermal habitat quality is either limited to small spatial ext... Read More about Unoccupied aerial vehicles as a tool to map lizard operative temperature in tropical environments.

InSAR-measured permafrost degradation of palsa peatlands in northern Sweden (2024)
Journal Article
Valman, S., Siewert, M. B., Boyd, D., Ledger, M., Gee, D., De La Barreda-Bautista, B., …Sjögersten, S. (2024). InSAR-measured permafrost degradation of palsa peatlands in northern Sweden. Cryosphere, 18(4), 1773-1790. https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-18-1773-2024

Climate warming is degrading palsa peatlands across the circumpolar permafrost region. Permafrost degradation may lead to ecosystem collapse and potentially strong climate feedbacks, as this ecosystem is an important carbon store and can transition t...

Understanding the effects of spatially variable riparian tree planting strategies to target water temperature reductions in rivers (2024)
Journal Article
Dugdale, S. J., Malcolm, I. A., & Hannah, D. M. (2024). Understanding the effects of spatially variable riparian tree planting strategies to target water temperature reductions in rivers. Journal of Hydrology, 635, Article 131163. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2024.131163

Climate change is increasing river temperature globally, altering the thermal suitability for iconic cold-water adapted fishes. In regions with low tree cover, the impacts of projected climate change on river temperature will be particularly pronounc...

Exploring the role of study abroad in decolonising geography curricula (2024)
Journal Article
Clare, N., & Keenan, L. (in press). Exploring the role of study abroad in decolonising geography curricula. Journal of Geography in Higher Education, https://doi.org/10.1080/03098265.2024.2338118

Studying abroad has the potential to contribute to wider processes of curriculum decolonisation. More often than not, however, it can actually serve to recolonise and reproduce multiscalar forms of privilege, with the majority of programs seeing stud...

Future malaria environmental suitability in Africa is sensitive to hydrology (2024)
Journal Article
Smith, M. W., Willis, T., Mroz, E., James, W. H. M., Klaar, M. J., Gosling, S. N., & Thomas, C. J. (in press). Future malaria environmental suitability in Africa is sensitive to hydrology. Science,

Changes in climate shift the geographic locations that are suitable for malaria transmission owing to thermal constraints on vector Anopheles mosquitos and Plasmodium spp. malaria parasites and the availability of surface water for vector breeding. P... Read More about Future malaria environmental suitability in Africa is sensitive to hydrology.

Just public algorithms: Mapping public engagement with the use of algorithms in UK public services (2024)
Journal Article
Pallett, H., Price, C., Chilvers, J., & Burall, S. (2024). Just public algorithms: Mapping public engagement with the use of algorithms in UK public services. Big Data and Society, 11(1), https://doi.org/10.1177/20539517241235867

This paper proposes and models a novel approach to public engagement with the use of algorithms in public services. Algorithms pose significant risks which need to be anticipated and mitigated through democratic governance, including public engagemen...

Pesticide-related risks embodied in global soybean trade (2024)
Journal Article
Wang, J., Geng, X., Wang, P., Yang, J., Yang, Y., Chan, F. K. S., …Chen, W. (2024). Pesticide-related risks embodied in global soybean trade. Cell Reports Sustainability, 1(3), Article 100055. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.crsus.2024.100055

Pesticides may help safeguard food security but endanger the local ecosystem and farmer health. The globalization of the food trade is masking such impacts by separating production from consumption, and its effects on pesticide use and their related...

Journal Article
Morris, C., Brockett, B. F., Selwood, S., Carr, V., Hall, J., Hughes, J., & Ambrose-Oji, B. (2024). Mainstreaming social sciences expertise in UK environment policy and practice organisations: retrospect and prospect. Humanities and Social Sciences Communications, 11(1), Article 399. https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-024-02891-z

Building upon the concept of mainstreaming social sciences within conservation, we consider their mainstreaming, and so integration, within UK environment policy and practice (EPP) organisations. The paper responds to increasing calls to recognise th... Read More about Mainstreaming social sciences expertise in UK environment policy and practice organisations: retrospect and prospect.
