Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Exploration of new wildlife surveying methodologies that leverage advances in sensor technology and machine learning has led to tentative research into the application of seismology techniques. This, most commonly, involves the deployment of a footfall trap – a seismic sensor and data logger customised for wildlife footfall.

Shear Strength of the Volcanic Coarse-Grained Soil
Shear Strength of the Volcanic Coarse-Grained SoilJapan is awarded with a total of about 144 volcanos distributed over the whole country from the south to the north. In Kyushu Island there are three main volcanos, namely Unzen, Sakurajima and Aso. The eruption of these volcanos has created the need to utilize these huge amounts of debris flow deposits as a construction material.

Spatiotemporal mapping the usable space of free‐roaming equids across the western United States
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.Identification of the inter‐decadal (2010‐2011) enhancement‐degradation gradients in the usable space for wild equid Herd Management Areas in the Great Basin, USA. Abstract Management of feral equids in the American West is hindered by the lack of a formal habitat map and monitoring system.

Functional traits explain responses of Appalachian birds to vertical and horizontal forest structure
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.The study of bird–forest relationships dates back decades, but rarely have the relationships of functional traits to 3D forest structure responses been considered for dozens of species at regional scales. Abstract Species interact with habitat based on their functional traits, but it is unclear how specific traits interact with the multiple components ...

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study assesses how weather‐year‐dependent sheep and crop management tactics affect farm profitability and farm system greenhouse gas emissions in the central Great Southern region in Australia. To investigate the impact of farmers' tactical decisions on farm profit and emissions, a whole farm optimisation model known as the Australian ...

Mechanical behavior of heterogeneous coarse-grained soils with matrix
, 2020 Les sols grossiers à matrice, matériaux contenant des grains allant du micromètre à plusieurs dizaines de centimètres, sont fréquemment utilisés dans divers projets géotechniques tels que les digues et les remblais. La détermination de la résistance au cisaillement de ces sols dans les appareils standards de laboratoire est difficile en raison de la ...

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.Abstract Foreign entrants may threaten and, at the same time, present local companies with opportunities for favourable spillovers. Building on the awareness‐motivation‐capability framework, this paper aims to provide empirical evidence for a positive co‐location or spatial proximity effect of foreign presence on local peer companies’ exports.

Coarse-Graining Fields in Particle-Based Soil Models
, 2020 In soil, where trees and crops grow, heavy vehicles shear and compact the soil, leading to reduced plant growth and diminished nutrient recycling. Computer simulations offer the possibility to improve the understanding of these undesired phenomena. In this thesis, soils were modelled as large collections of contacting spherical particles using the ...

Dutch dilemma: Housing prices and flood risk exposure
Real Estate Economics, EarlyView.Abstract This article studies the impact of flood risk exposure on housing prices in a major river delta. Analyzing 1.8 million property transactions from 1998 to 2023 in the Netherlands, we find an average price discount of 1.1%. We observe considerable heterogeneity in price effects driven by exposure intensity, institutional settings that vary ...
