Integrating social narratives of flood events into a text network analysis-based decision support framework to reduce vulnerability to climate change in Africa (2025)
Journal Article

In many African countries, the response to climate change is obstructed by a lack of accessible and usable information, such as localised flood maps. Compounding this, current disaster risk management systems often fail to account for context-specifi...

Moisture availability versus grazing and burning as drivers of Holocene forest-grassland coexistence in Europe: A case study from open ecosystems of southeastern Romania (2025)
Journal Article

Southeastern Europe is home to remnants of highly diverse open ecosystems, including grasslands and forest-steppe. To understand the impacts of climate changes, fire disturbance, and herbivory on forest-grassland coexistence in this region, we integr...

A review and meta-analysis of the efficacy of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in remediating toxic metals in mine-affected soils (2025)
Journal Article
Banerjee, S., Mandal, J., Sarkar, D., Datta, R., & Bhattacharyya, P. (2025). A review and meta-analysis of the efficacy of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in remediating toxic metals in mine-affected soils. Frontiers in Environmental Science, 12, 1532169. https://doi.org/10.3389/fenvs.2024.1532169

Mines are natural reservoirs of various minerals, metals, and metalloids. Several heavy metals (HMs), such as Pb, Cd, Cr, Cu, and Ni, are major anthropogenic pollutants that cause severe environmental pollution. The accumulation of these toxic HMs in...
