Repurposing Bird‐Based Acoustic Models for Amphibian Surveys: Strengths and Limitations in Real‐World Deployments

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
In this study, we developed AnuraSearch, an open‐source classifier for 11 Ukrainian amphibian species, by repurposing the avian BirdNET algorithm via transfer learning to process over 18,000 h of autonomous acoustic recordings. Although the model demonstrated high precision and successfully reconstructed detailed seasonal and diel vocal activity ...

Financial Inclusion and Carbon‐Intensive Path Dependence: Evidence From Oil‐Exporting Economies

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines whether financial inclusion mitigates environmental degradation or, conversely, reinforces carbon‐intensive development pathways in oil‐exporting economies, consistent with carbon lock‐in dynamics. Drawing on resource curse and structural specialization frameworks, we argue that financial deepening may amplify carbon ...

Towards Responsible Mining in Africa: Problematising the Environmental and Public Health Concerns of Artisanal and Small‐Scale Gold Mining in Ghana

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There have been emerging media reports on the impact of cyanide and mercury use in artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM) operations on community health, especially among pregnant and non‐pregnant women, ASGM miners, and children in rural Africa.
