Bipartisan Failures: How Political Agendas Undermine Core Ethical Principles in Emergency Management
ABSTRACT This paper examines how political agendas across the ideological spectrum compromise ethical principles in emergency management in the United States. Through a literature review and comparative fact‐based scenario analysis, it demonstrates that both conservative and liberal governments have politicized disaster declarations, resource ...

Research on pore structural change of gravel soil under seepage erosion based on CT scanning [PDF]
As the main component of the landslide accumulation layer, gravel soil is affected by hydrodynamic factors; the change of internal seepage pressure leads to the loss of soil particles, resulting in the change of meso structure and mechanical properties ...

Island restoration to rebuild seabird populations and amplify coral reef functioning
Abstract Mobile organisms like seabirds can provide important nutrient flows between ecosystems, but this connectivity has been interrupted by the degradation of island ecosystems. Island restoration (via invasive species eradications and the restoration of native vegetation) can reestablish seabird populations and their nutrient transfers between ...

A case for stronger integration of physical landscape processes in conservation science and practice
Abstract I argue that the dynamic nature of contemporary, landscape‐shaping (geomorphic) processes deserves more consideration in conservation science and practice. In an analysis of a sample of fundamental terms related to geomorphology and area‐based conservation in the Web of Science, I found that the terms co‐occurred in <2% of the analyzed entries

洛川塬区土壤侵蚀变化表现出不同的侵蚀期,土壤侵蚀过程就是沟谷的发育过程。通过分析洛川塬区晚中更新世以来洛河阶地和沟谷黄土、古土壤记录的古地貌形态得出,560~460kaB.P.的第一侵蚀期洛河一级支流开始广泛形成;洛河较大的二级支流形成于250~200kaB.P.的第二侵蚀期;140~95kaB.P.的第三侵蚀期洛河形成了三级支流;洛川塬区众多的冲沟主要是全新世(10~0kaB.P.)以来形成的。分析了洛川塬区不同侵蚀期形成的沟谷地貌形态。以黑木沟为例,具体分析了黑木沟的发育过程和土壤侵蚀量变化。
