The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Shadow and deflection angle of asymptotic, magnetically-charged, non-singular black hole

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
In this paper, we investigate a solution for an asymptotic, magnetically-charged, non-singular (AMCNS) black hole. By utilizing the Gauss–Bonnet theorems, we aim to unravel the intricate astrophysics associated with this unique black hole.

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...
