Natural hazards such as tropical cyclones (TCs) cause widespread destruction. Historical impact data provides a resource for understanding TC impacts and associated societal vulnerabilities which is essential for building resilience. However, characteristics of impact data such as resolution and coverage can influence its utility for disaster risk reduction (DRR) applications. With this in mind, we present a province-level imp...

Human‐caused global change produces biotic and abiotic conditions that increase the uncertainty and risk of failure of restoration efforts. A focus of managing for resiliency, that is, the ability of the system to respond to disturbance, has the potential to reduce this uncertainty and risk. However, identifying what drives resiliency might depend on how one measures it. An example of a system where identifying how the drivers...

Many marine benthic invertebrates have a pelagic life stage, during which larvae need to accumulate enough reserves to complete metamorphosis to a settled benthic juvenile. Currently, very little is known about how ocean conditions affect quality of the larvae. We studied this for three settlement seasons (2017–2019) by collecting returning Dungeness crab ( Metacarcinus magister ) megalopae at the Oregon coast and analyzing th...

Replicability of divergence after contact is a poorly characterized process, particularly in the contexts of phylogeography and postglacial range dynamics within species. Using contact zones located at the leading‐, mid‐ and rear‐edges of a species' range, we examined variation in outcomes to contact between divergent lineages of Campanula americana . We investigated whether contact zones vary in quantity and directionality of...
