From novel ecosystems to novel natures (2024)
Journal Article
Montana, J., Heger, T., Kelz, R., Bischoff, A., Buitenwerf, R., Eser, U., Kung, K., Sattler, J., Schweiger, A. H., Searle, A., Teixeira, L. H., Travassos-Britto, B., & Higgs, E. (2024). From novel ecosystems to novel natures. GAiA - Ecological Perspectives for Science and Society, 33(1), 146-151. https://doi.org/10.14512/gaia.33.1.6

Ecologists, particularly restoration ecologists, were early to recognise the challenges of historically unprecedented combinations of species and abiotic conditions brought about by human intervention. However, to date, this ecological understanding... Read More about From novel ecosystems to novel natures.

Extreme Outrageous And (Un)reliable Navigating Uncertainty In The Development Of Sound-based Fog Signals In Scotland 1860 -1900 (2024)
Journal Article
Dishington, R. (in press). Extreme Outrageous And (Un)reliable Navigating Uncertainty In The Development Of Sound-based Fog Signals In Scotland 1860 -1900. Technology and Culture,

In the late nineteenth century, engineers at Scotland’s Northern Lighthouse Board developed and managed an increasingly complex network of sound-based fog signals. From only five bell signals in 1873, the Scottish network grew to thirty-seven sound s...

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., Sowter, A., & 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...

Managing flood risk in Blue-Green Cities (2024)
Book Chapter
O’Donnell, E., Dolman, N., Everett, G., Kapetas, L., Ncube, S., & Thorne, C. (2024). Managing flood risk in Blue-Green Cities. In J. Lamond, D. Proverbs, & N. Bhattacharya Mis (Eds.), Research Handbook on Flood Risk Management (97-111). Edward Elgar Publishing. https://doi.org/10.4337/9781839102981.00015

Blue-Green Cities manage flood risk by recreating more naturally oriented water cycles in urban areas through the restoration of natural drainage channels, reduction in impervious surfaces and implementation of Blue-Green Infrastructure (BGI - for ex...

A Passive Urban Revolution (2024)
Newspaper / Magazine
Cowan, T. (2024). A Passive Urban Revolution

This response builds on the critical insights and interventions provided here, elaborating how Subaltern Frontiers might provide a useful lens to explore the unsettled geographies of passive revolution on India’s urban frontier.

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...
