Woodburning has emerged as the single most important source of primary fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in Birmingham and likely many other UK cities. Exposure to PM2.5 from wood stoves contributes to hundreds of premature deaths each year in Birmingham and imposes a significant burden on public...

Fossil tracks and trackways (a type of trace fossil or ichnofossil) provide highly complementary information to the body fossil record. Tracks are more abundant than body fossils as organisms have one skeleton, but may leave many of tracks in their lifetime, often occur in stratigraphic levels...

Intermittent streams (c. 50% of world rivers) and headwaters (c. 90% of rivers) are key riverine systems for hydrology, ecology and water quality, which are poorly monitored and lack data (Dugdale et al. 2022; Mainstone et al. 2018; Datry et al. 2016). Streams are often flagged...

Great apes held in captivity need resilience: the ability to ‘bounce back’ following setbacks. This is particularly true for apes entering sanctuaries or rehabilitation centres, as they have usually endured traumatic conditions, including killing of their mother and separation from their social...

Blue carbon ecosystems, such as coastal wetlands, saltmarshes and peatlands, store significant amounts of carbon through sequestration of atmospheric carbon dioxide. In fact, these ecosystems can store up to ten times more carbon per hectare than temperate forests, underscoring their strong...
