Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery
Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.

Balancing tracks and trees: Assessing railroad impact on Brazilian biodiversity
The Brazilian West–East Integration Railway (FIOL) aims to boost the national economy by improving commodity transport; however, it crosses three of Brazil's most biodiverse and fragile regions: the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Using digitised plant records and land‐use analyses, our study reveals significant vegetation loss within the ...

Climate change‐driven expansion of goosegrass highlights risks to global food production
Climate change is expanding the climatic suitability of Eleusine indica into temperate agricultural regions, increasing its overlap with major soybean and maize production areas. These findings highlight a growing global threat to food security and the need for proactive weed management strategies.

Migratory fall armyworms in West African breeding habitats showed clear seasonal movements: shifting southwest from January to May, turning northeast in June to July, and returning southwest from August to December. Abstract BACKGROUND The migratory invasive species fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda, FAW) has established year‐round populations in ...

Does vertical wind shear increase tropical cyclone rain?
A 26‐year modern precipitation dataset is used to systematically assess tropical cyclone (TC) rainfall responses to vertical wind shear (VWS). VWS enhances rainfall volume in TCs by up to 23%, despite reducing storm intensity, revealing a trade‐off where VWS mitigates wind damage but potentially amplifies flood risk.

Sensitivity of single and multiple cosmic ray neutrons to the surrounding medium in a lead-free monitor [PDF]
In 1981-1985 the neutron component of cosmic rays was recorded, the effect of cosmic ray multiplication in lead being disregarded. The recording device consisted of neutron counters placed in a polyethylene retarder (polyethylene tubes with wall ...

Quantifying driving ensemble influence on operational convection‐permitting ensemble spread
By comparing statistics of precipitation patterns between a convection‐permitting ensemble and the global ensemble used to drive it, we investigate the conditions under which the convection‐permitting ensemble diverges from the evolution of the driving ensemble.
