Global climate change is reshaping the schedules and routes of migratory birds, which can disrupt annual cycles, ecological interactions and the fitness trade‐offs of migrating or staying resident. In particular, climate change has led to advances in arrival at the breeding grounds and to shifts in the timing of post‐breeding migration, whereby both ...

ABSTRACT The Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata; Medfly) has been a primary agricultural pest in Israel for over a century. While chemical control remains the prevalent choice for its management, the integration of the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) into the management programme for this pest has been explored and implemented in various ...

Dune migration and slip face advancement in the Rabe Crater dune field, Mars
Eight overlapping images of a dune slip face in Rabe Crater (35°E, 44°S) from the Mars Global Surveyor Mars Orbiter Camera show changes interpreted to be multiple grainflow events that would indicate present‐day sand saltation and dune migration. New occurrences of these features appear sporadically throughout late southern summer and early fall, and ...

Natural Haloxylon ammodendron populations on the eastern margin of the Badain Jaran Desert showed size‐associated differences in plant height, crown diameter, and spatial patterns among stem‐base diameter classes. These patterns describe morphological spatial variation but do not establish specific environmental drivers.

Field‐based evaluation of glass cullet as a supplementary sediment source for coastal restoration
There is an ever‐increasing demand for sand to support projects like beach nourishment and dune restoration, but dredging and mining sand causes environmental damage. Demonstrating the environmental and ecological compatibility of crushed and ground glass known as cullet to support coastal restoration projects could simultaneously divert waste from ...

Slowdown of Dune Migration in East Asia's Inland Deserts: A 35‐Year Response to Wind Stilling
Global terrestrial stilling, the recent decrease in near‐surface wind speeds, has significant environmental impacts, including reduced dust storms and vegetation recovery in East Asia's drylands. However, direct evidence of stilling effects on sand dunes
