Collaboration for climate adaptation among herders
Climate change poses mounting challenges to pastoral communities, particularly in remote regions where smallholder herders depend heavily on natural resources yet possess limited adaptive capacity. Collaboration among herders can facilitate climate adaptation, yet the structure of these collaborative ties and the mechanisms that shape them remain poorly understood. Drawing on a social-ecological network (SEN) framework and multilevel exponential …

Demographic and Mental Health Predictors of HIV Care Outcomes Among Women Veterans
Understanding HIV care experiences of women veterans is essential for identifying gaps in an understudied population with unique care needs. Much of what is known relies on inferences from civilian women or combines women and men veterans, obscuring important sex-related differences. Mental health conditions are highly prevalent among women veterans and present a critical barrier to HIV care, as nearly half of Veterans Health Administration (VHA)…
Unraveling the Divergent Contributions of Plant‐ and Microbial‐Derived Carbon to Soil Organic Carbon During Subtropical Vegetation Restoration
Soil organic carbon (SOC) pool substantially relies on the sequestration of plant‐derived carbon (C) (indicated by lignin) and microbe‐derived C (indicated by microbial necromass and glomalin‐related soil proteins [GRSPs]).

Historical redlining, locally unwanted land uses, and neighborhood mental health
Historical redlining in the 1930s is widely used as a benchmark to measure the enduring effects of housing discrimination on today’s patterns of racial segregation and health disparities. Residents of historically redlined neighborhoods are more likely to experience depression, anxiety, and other adverse mental health outcomes. Prior research also shows that historically redlined neighborhoods disproportionately host environmentally burdensome lo…
