Global decoupling of functional and phylogenetic diversity in plant communities. Nature Ecology and Evolution, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-024-02589-0

Plant communities are composed of species that differ both in functional traits and evolutionary histories. As species’ functional traits partly result from their individual evolutionary history, we expect the functional diversity of communities to i...

The future of decent work: Forecasting heat stress and the intersection of sustainable development challenges in India's brick kilns (2024)
Journal Article
Boyd, D. S., Jackson, B., Sparks, J. D., Foody, G. M., Girindran, R., Gosling, S., Trodd, Z., Bhriain, L. H., & Rodriguez-Huerta, E. (2024). The future of decent work: Forecasting heat stress and the intersection of sustainable development challenges in India's brick kilns. Sustainable Development, https://doi.org/10.1002/sd.3272

The impacts of climate change-induced heat stress on workers are most prevalent in sectors with decent work deficits and this requires consideration for sustainable development. This paper focuses on the informal economy of brick kilns in India, a se...

Human activity controls nitrogen loads in a large sub-tropical delta from 2000 to 2020 (2024)
Journal Article
Do, N. T., Trinh, D. A., Panizzo, V. N., McGowan, S., Runeckles, H., Henderson, A. C., Large, A. R., & Hackney, C. R. (2025). Human activity controls nitrogen loads in a large sub-tropical delta from 2000 to 2020. Resources, Conservation and Recycling, 213, Article 108021. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.resconrec.2024.108021

Nitrogen (N) is crucial for agricultural yield, but its overuse in fertilisation and presence in uncollected wastewater from urbanization causes eutrophication. The Red River Delta in Vietnam is facing rapidly increasing water quality issues. Here, M... Read More about Human activity controls nitrogen loads in a large sub-tropical delta from 2000 to 2020.

Heat stress and the labour force (2024)
Journal Article
Dasgupta, S., Robinson, E. J. Z., Shayegh, S., Bosello, F., Park, R. J., & Gosling, S. N. (2024). Heat stress and the labour force. Nature Reviews Earth and Environment, 5, 859-872. https://doi.org/10.1038/s43017-024-00606-1

Heat stress affects the health of workers through physiological and behavioural responses, in turn, affecting the labour force through impacts on labour supply, labour productivity and labour capacity. In this Review, we explore the extent to which h... Read More about Heat stress and the labour force.
