ABSTRACT Accurate wind speed forecasting is indispensable for the efficient integration of wind power into the electrical grid, optimizing turbine scheduling, and ensuring grid stability. Existing models, such as Long Short‐Term Memory (LSTM) networks, often struggle to capture the highly nonlinear relationships and long‐range dependencies present in ...

Abstract Globally, the highest incidence of meningococcal meningitis occurs within the African meningitis belt, spanning 26 countries across sub‐Saharan Africa. Meningococcal meningitis incidence is highly seasonal in this region specifically, with outbreaks mostly occurring during the dry season, characterized by low rainfall and atmospheric humidity,

Abstract The deserts of Northwest China are one of the most wind energy resource rich area in the country, and are characterized by concentrated solar energy and fragile ecosystems. Thus, efforts to harvest wind energy for carbon neutrality goals face vital challenges, such as determining where to site wind farms with consideration of wind energy ...

Process‐Based Modeling of Coastal Dune Blowout Initiation, Development, and Stabilization
Abstract Coastal dune blowouts are key geomorphic features that drive landward sediment transport, dune mobility, and habitat diversity, yet their conditions of formation and evolution remain poorly quantified. Using the process‐based AeoLiS model under time‐invariant wind conditions and for idealized coastal dune settings, we simulate the spontaneous ...

Abstract Aeolian dust strongly influences climate, air quality, and biogeochemical cycles, yet identifying source areas and determining their surface‐state controls remain challenging. We focus on lower Mesopotamia and Kuwait, a globally significant dust source region where surface characteristics of dust sources remain poorly understood through ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the effects of high temperatures and water deficit on germination provides valuable insights into seed stress tolerance, guiding the use of native seeds in ecological restoration. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of (1) temperature peaks and (2) water stress treatments and post‐stress recovery on the germination of some ...

ABSTRACT In the complex interplay between agriculture and wildlife, free‐living predators pose a unique set of challenges. In western New South Wales (NSW), free‐living canids (legislatively defined as ‘wild dogs’; Canis familiaris; which currently includes dingoes, feral modern dogs and their hybrids) are managed due to their impacts on livestock ...

Moonlight Duration and Intensity Favour Nocturnal Activity in a Diurnal Desert Bird
Accelerometer data show that Canarian houbara bustards increase nocturnal activity two‐ to fivefold when the moon is visible, with activity rising as moonlit duration and illumination increase. Both display and non‐display behaviours peaked around full moon, reaching up to half of peak daytime levels, with males increasing visual displays during ...

ABSTRACT Aim By moving beyond traditional biome‐centric approaches to sample continuously across a massive ecotone, we investigate how species richness, community composition, and dominance of woody plants change across a strong longitudinal precipitation gradient and identify thresholds in water availability that drive shifts in community assembly ...
