Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Recovering Bathymetry Using BP Neural Network Combined with Modified Gravity–Geologic Method: A Case Study in the South China Sea

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The gravity–geologic method (GGM) is widely used for bathymetric predictions. However, the conventional GGM cannot be applied in regions without actual bathymetric data.

Floodplain channel morphology and networks of the middle Amazon River [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Floodplain channels are important components of river-floodplain systems and are known to play a key role in hydrodynamic exchange and sediment transport.

Long‐term trends of epibionts reflect Mediterranean striped dolphin abundance shifts caused by morbillivirus epidemics

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This original research piece demonstrates, through empirical and theoretical modelling approaches, that the epibionts of striped dolphins indicate dolphin abundance shifts caused by epidemics of dolphin morbillivirus (DMV). In addition, we provide the first SIR model to investigate the epidemiology of DMV in western Mediterranean striped dolphins ...

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 191-228., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

SDUST2023BCO: a global seafloor model determined from a multi-layer perceptron neural network using multi-source differential marine geodetic data [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data
Seafloor topography, as a fundamental marine spatial geographic information, plays a vital role in marine observation and science research. With the growing demand for high-precision bathymetric models, a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural network is ...

Correction of Bathymetric Survey Artifacts Resulting from Apparent Wave-Induced Vertical Position of an AUV [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Recent increases in the capability and reliability of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have provided the opportunity to conduct bathymetric seafloor surveys in shallow water (\u3c 50 m).

Comparative Population Genetics of Two Alvinocaridid Shrimp Species in Chemosynthetic Ecosystems of the Western Pacific

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Little is known about the population divergence and gene flow of deep‐sea animals living in disjunct hydrothermal vents and cold seep habitats. Taking advantage of samples collected from multiple cruises across a huge distance of >5000 km, we revealed the differential population divergence pattern and gene flow in two congeneric species of shrimps ...

Quantifying earthquake-induced bathymetric changes in a tufa lake using high-resolution remote sensing data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Detecting earthquake-induced bathymetric changes helps to understand the geomorphologic process of tufa lakes. Traditional field measurement methods are difficult for spatially complete and continuous bathymetric mapping.

Climatic–Anthropogenic Synergy Drives Escalating Minimum Area Requirements and Connectivity‐Protection Mismatch in a Karst‐Endemic Primate

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...
