Ten relevant questions for applying biodiversity offsetting in the Pantanal wetland

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Here, we formulated 10 questions that discuss and illustrate how offsetting can be applied to maintain wetland integrity, economic fairness, and biodiversity conservation in the Pantanal and Upper Paraguay River basin (UPRB) We provided examples of offsetting implementation opportunities, analyze spatial compliance deficits, and illustrate requirements

Selective sampling of asteroids, the Moon, and Mars: Factors affecting the numerical abundances of members of meteorite groups

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Meteorite collection inventories show that many related meteorite groups have very different numerical abundances (e.g., lunar versus Martian meteorites; Eagle Station pallasites versus main‐group pallasites; eucrites versus diogenites; ungrouped Antarctic irons versus ungrouped non‐Antarctic irons; carbonaceous chondrite‐related (CC) iron ...

INTEGRAÇÃO ENTRE DADOS ÓPTICOS E RADAR (SRTM) PARA A CARACTERIZAÇÃO GEOAMBIENTAL DA COSTA SETENTRIONAL DO RIO GRANDE DO NORTE / RADAR (SRTM) AND OPTICAL DATA COMBINATION FOR GEOENVIRONMENTAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE RIO GRANDE DO NORTE NOTHERN COAST

Revista Geográfica Acadêmica, 2008
The demand for energetic resources on the country increased the exploration of hydrocarbon andconsequently the risk of oil spill on environmentally sensible areas located on the Rio Grande do Nortenorthern coast.

Identification of groundwater potential sites in the drought-prone area using geospatial techniques at Fafen-Jerer sub-basin, Ethiopia

Geology, Ecology, and Landscapes
Analyzing the groundwater potential zone is a fundamental first step in investigating groundwater resources in arid and semi-arid regions. This study examined the groundwater potential zone of the Fafen-Jerer sub-basin by applying geographic information ...

Development and factors controlling tropical carbonate barrier island systems—Bar Al Hikman; mid‐late Holocene, Oman

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern carbonate barrier island systems are crucial coastal geomorphological features increasingly affected by human activities and global environmental change. Predicting their evolution is essential for effective coastal management. In addition, in the subsurface, palaeo‐barriers may hold valuable reservoir potential; however, due to complex

Stream network analysis and geomorphic flood plain mapping from orbital and suborbital remote sensing imagery application to flood hazard studies in central Texas [PDF]

The author has identified the following significant results. Development of a quantitative hydrogeomorphic approach to flood hazard evaluation was hindered by (1) problems of resolution and definition of the morphometric parameters which have hydrologic ...

Global system of rivers: Its role in organizing continental land mass and defining land‐to‐ocean linkages [PDF]

, 2000
The spatial organization of the Earth\u27s land mass is analyzed using a simulated topological network (STN‐30p) representing potential flow pathways across the entire nonglacierized surface of the globe at 30‐min (longitude × latitude) spatial ...

Whole‐genome data shed light on speciation and within‐species differentiation of the Papilio machaon complex around the Mediterranean Basin

Systematic Entomology, EarlyView.
Genomic data refine the species boundary of Papilio machaon and confirm the species status of Papilio saharae, with clarification of subspecies delineation of Mediterranean machaon and saharae. A heterogeneous level of genome‐wide heterozygosity between island and continental lineages warrants further taxonomic implications, and there is also evidence ...

Drainage Divide Migration in Response to Asymmetric Uplift at Eastern Qinling, China

Terra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drainage divide migration shapes landscape, sediment patterns, and biodiversity, which is affected by a variety of factors. While geomorphic index and numerical simulations have been employed to investigate divide migration, previous studies ignore the present‐day vertical velocity field.

Resilient education: The role of digital technology in supporting geographical education in Ukraine

Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, EarlyView.
Abstract This commentary spotlights the continued impact of the Russian invasion on geography education in higher education in Ukraine. From discussions with Ukrainian geographers in institutions in contrasting regions of the country, we describe their resilience in adapting the delivery of the physical geography curriculum, especially in the essential
