“It's a good reason to get up every morning!”: Perspectives on how feeding and observing birds affects people’s wellbeingNARA Subscribed
In light of growing mental health challenges globally, understanding the positive impacts of nature on mental wellbeing is more important than ever. However, the impacts of one of the most common intentional human–wildlife interactions, feeding wild birds, are not well understood. We surveyed 3658 participatory scientists in the USA and Canada who take part in Project FeederWatch to examine associations between wellbeing and b...
Enhancing the effectiveness of basil seed-TiO2/rGO nanocomposites for multifunctional dye removal in wastewaterNARA Subscribed
Clean water source is contaminated by industrial wastewater effluent which directly discharge into water stream. Combination of adsorption-photocatalytic is one of the preferable techniques for treating methylene blue (MB) dye wastewater. In this study, hydrothermal method was utilised in order to synthesis titanium oxide (TiO 2 ) nanoparticles. The synthesis of rGO was conducted by Hummer’s method by using lemon extract. Both...

The first multi-model ensemble of regional climate simulations at kilometer-scale resolution, part I: evaluation of precipitationNARA Subscribed
Here we present the first multi-model ensemble of regional climate simulations at kilometer-scale horizontal grid spacing over a decade long period. A total of 23 simulations run with a horizontal grid spacing of $$\sim $$ ∼ 3 km, driven by ERA-Interim reanalysis, and performed by 22 European research groups are analysed. Six different regional climate models (RCMs) are represented in the ensemble. The simulations are compared...
The changing sociocultural context of wildlife conservationNARA Subscribed
We introduced a multilevel model of value shift to describe the changing social context of wildlife conservation. Our model depicts how cultural‐level processes driven by modernization (e.g., increased wealth, education, and urbanization) affect changes in individual‐level cognition that prompt a shift from domination to mutualism wildlife values. Domination values promote beliefs that wildlife should be used primarily to bene...
Understanding what shape values (which ultimately shape human behavior) will help improve the effectiveness of conservation solutions that depend on public support. To contribute to this understanding, we investigated the influence of societal‐level changes, such as modernization, on values in a multilevel framework. We collected survey responses ( n = 4183) to questionnaires mailed to a random selection of households within e...
Large‐scale change in human values and associated behavior change is believed by some to be the ultimate solution to achieve global biodiversity conservation. Yet little is known about the dynamics of values. We contribute to this area of inquiry by examining the trajectory of values affecting views of wildlife in North America. Using data from a 19‐state study in the United States and global data from the Schwartz Value Surve...
