Warming of northern peatlands increases the global temperature overshoot challenge
Tropical montane forest loss dominated by increased 1–10 hectare-sized patches
Tropical forest loss continues across mountain regions at alarming rates, threatening biodiversity, carbon storage and ecosystem sustainability. To improve our understanding of the dynamics of tropical mountain forest loss, this study focuses on the trends in patch sizes of forest loss during the 21st century. The annual area of tropical mountain forest loss surged from 0.7 million hectares in 2001–2003 to >2.5 million hectares in 2019–2021. Ther…
Drainage density and land cover interact to affect fire occurrence in Indonesian peatlands
Fire occurrence in tropical peatlands is closely related to both land cover (LC) type and proximity to drainage (canal) networks. However, little is known about the extent to which LC and drainage density interact to alter fire occurrence. Here, we assess the relationship between these variables in the peatlands of Sumatra and Kalimantan, Indonesia, spanning a five-year period of inter-annual climatic variability. Visible Infrared Imaging Radiome…
Accelerating global mountain forest loss threatens biodiversity hotspots
Can payment by results ensure equitable access to contraceptive services? a qualitative case study
The use of PbR KPIs incentivised several strategies to reach adolescents and people living in poverty. However, the use of global indicators was too simplistic, resulting in several methodological issues
A window into land managers’ preferences for new forms of agri-environmental schemes
Securing the provision of environmental public goods from agriculture is central to addressing the critical challenge of ensuring global food security while halting ecosystem degradation. Agri-environment schemes (AES) are considered to have a key role to play in supporting the transition to more sustainable ways of producing food. Existing evidence suggests that farmers are generally willing to enrol in AES for the delivery of environmental feat…
A strong mitigation scenario maintains climate neutrality of northern peatlands
The top 100 global water questions
Global water security presents a complex problem for human societies and will become more acute as the impacts of climate change escalate. Water security connects the practical water and sanitation challenges of households to the dynamics of global hydroclimates and ecosystems in the Anthropocene. To ensure the successful deployment of attention and resources, it is necessary to identify the most pressing questions for water research. Here, we pr…
Doubling of annual forest carbon loss over the tropics during the early twenty-first century
Previous estimates of tropical forest carbon loss in the twenty-first century using satellite data typically focus on its magnitude, whereas regional loss trajectories and associated drivers are rarely reported. Here we used different high-resolution satellite datasets to show a doubling of gross tropical forest carbon loss worldwide from 0.97 ± 0.16 PgC yr −1 in 2001–2005 to 1.99 ± 0.13 PgC yr −1 in 2015–2019. This increase in carbon loss from f…

Refining soil organic carbon stock estimates for China’s palustrine wetlands
Palustrine wetlands (PWs) include all bogs, fens, swamps and marshes that are non-saline and which are not lakes or rivers. They therefore form a highly important group of wetlands which hold large carbon stocks. If these wetlands are not protected properly they could become a net carbon source in the future. Compilation of spatially explicit wetland databases, national inventory data and in situ measurement of soil organic carbon (SOC) could be …

Geography fieldwork in a ‘risk society’
The recent decline in fieldwork provision in UK schools has partly been attributed to false perceptions of risk among teachers. This paper examines a case study based on geography teachers’ perceptions from six state secondary schools in a northern English city. The research shows that owing to the inherent subjectivity of risk perception, these teachers’ perceptions of fieldwork risk cannot be dismissed as false. Furthermore, it is argued that o…
Mama's Boys
In this narrative, the author compares identical twin brothers-one gay, one straight-to the character Jaromil in Milan Kundera's novel Life Is Elsewhere. He describes in some detail various rebellious experiments that one brother conducted and the way in which mother, Jaynet, managed the two brothers. The essay examines, implicitly, the notion that gay men come from families with a distant father and a strong mother. It is, coincidentally, also a…
