Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This paper explores how climate‐resilient technologies, such as smart grids, digital twins, and self‐healing materials, can enhance urban resilience. It highlights the urgent need for proactive planning, public‐private collaboration, and data‐driven innovation to future‐proof underground infrastructure amid accelerating climate and urban pressures ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Through shear–tensile creep tests and viscoelastic modeling, the fracture evolution of thick soft protective layers is clarified. Results show thickness‐dependent rheological failure modes that govern four types of roof water inrush, providing a mechanism‐based framework for hazard prediction and control. Abstract In the Jurassic coal‐bearing strata of

Developing a macroecology for human‐altered ecosystems
Ecography, EarlyView.Although anthropogenically‐induced ecological disruptions are fundamentally important in defining ecosystem properties, they are largely overlooked by macroecological theory. Anthropogenic disruptions and their effects are generally not comparable to one another, nor to disturbances that are part of natural disturbance regimes.

Ecography, EarlyView.Freshwater environments are intertwined with human activities and the consequence has been environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. Fish provide key ecological and economic benefits, and fish abundance and diversity can be affected by human activities resulting in functional diversity (FD) changes that might scale up to ecosystem impacts ...

Alpine ungulates adjust diel activity to the natural return of wolves amid anthropogenic pressures
Ecography, EarlyView.As wolves recolonise their historical range across Europe, ungulates face predation once more – but in landscapes profoundly altered by human activity. This shift raises crucial questions about their capacity to express adaptive antipredator behaviours.

Actualidades Biológicas, 2009 Studies comparing various streams are scarce in tropical insular systems and inexistent in Colombia. In order to understand the spatial patterns of macroinvertebrates in tropical insular streams, and the environmental drivers of such patterns, we tested ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Escalating wildfire frequency and severity are altering wildland habitats worldwide. Yet investigations into fire impacts on wildlife habitat rarely extend to the macroecological scales relevant to species conservation and global change processes. We evaluate the effects of wildfire on habitat quality and selection by large mammals spanning three ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Microorganisms perform essential functions in Arctic terrestrial ecosystems. Yet, their ecology and biogeography are poorly understood, despite being necessary to predict microbial responses to future climate change. Here, we provide the first large‐scale floristic and biogeographic study of the moss diatom flora in the tundra regions of the North ...

Failure Mechanism of Asymmetric Large Deformations Under Repeated Mining in Roadways
Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.Principal stress‐evolution diagram at different advance positions of 42205 working face. ABSTRACT To address the challenge of controlling severe asymmetrical deformation in roadways subjected to repeated mining, this study (i.e., based on the engineering context of the Buertai Coal Mine) investigated the characteristics of the regional stress field in ...
