ABSTRACT Aim Many mammals of the order Carnivora are key ecosystem predators. In the American continent, they have a complex biogeographical history, shaped by processes of colonization and adaptive radiation that have generated a high diversity of lineages. However, under the global biodiversity crisis, this group faces increasing extinction risk, and

Compounding Human and Bioclimatic Factors Driving the Global Fire Crisis
The global fire crisis has emerged from centuries of disruptions to coupled social‐ecological systems that govern fire regimes. ABSTRACT Over millennia, social and ecological systems have been shaped by fire and have in turn shaped fire regimes. However, recent decades have seen an escalating “fire crisis” characterized by an increasing incidence of ...

Abstract The influence of the spatial organization of tropical convection on the production of extreme instantaneous localized tropical rain rates remains poorly constrained, both in observations and in models. Using retrievals from the Ku‐band radar onboard the GPM satellite, we identify tropical precipitation features (PFs) and quantify their ...
