Joint Angular Excursions and Angular Range Utilization During Stance‐Phase Locomotion in Terrestrial Mammals: A Comparative Morphofunctional Data Set

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
This study quantifies stance‐phase joint angular excursions and angular utilization (AUI%) during walking in 182 terrestrial mammal species. Across mammals, total limb excursion during stance (TAE) decreases with increasing body mass, whereas AUI% remains broadly conserved, indicating similar proportional use of summed joint excursions to generate net ...

As Seen on Social Media: The Daily Effects of Social Media Content on Employee Emotions and Behaviors

Journal of Organizational Behavior, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Employees regularly use social media during work hours and thus are exposed to a wide variety of vibrant, fluid social information that they would likely not have access to through other channels. We contribute to the literature by suggesting that the social information available on social media is infused with meaning that can affect ...

Intensification of Flash and Long‐Term Droughts in the Danube River Basin: A Multi‐Scale Analysis Using Satellite‐Derived Evaporative Stress Index and Soil Water Index

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Analysed drought intensification in the Danube using Evaporative Stress Index (ESI) and Soil Water Index (SWI). Flesh drought detection: developed thresholds for rapid drought detection using ESI‐4Wk and SWI‐40. Multi‐layer analysis: combined atmospheric stress and soil moisture to assess drought impacts.

Digital Terrain Model for Spain

, 1994
In this paper the topographic model for Spain is presented. It is formed by twelve matrixes of height points, nine of them covering the Peninsula and three smaller ones for the Balearic lslands. The points are expressed in UTM coordinates, equidistant between themselves by 200 meters.

Assessing Past and Future Temperature‐ and Precipitation‐Based Indicators in the Republic of Yemen

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
For the first time in the literature, this work assesses the past and future climatic trends over Yemen, a highly vulnerable country for which science‐based, high‐quality information for the development of climate change adaptation plans was not available until now.

Multi‐Scale Drivers of Food‐Water‐Energy Related Ecosystem Services in the Context of Land Degradation: Insights From the Beijing‐Tianjin‐Hebei Agglomeration

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land degradation poses significant challenges to maintaining food–water–energy (FWE) security, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions. The ecosystem services (ES) related to FWE are critical for sustainable regional development. Yet, rapid urbanization in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region has altered land use and ecological patterns ...

Precision Restoration to Minimize Soil Loss in a Watershed in the Atlantic Forest Domain

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Turvo River Watershed, located in the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais and part of the Doce River Basin, faces serious problems of erosion and soil degradation, which compromise and reduce the quality of local water resources. Given this scenario, it is essential to implement environmental recovery strategies that prioritize the ...
