Efficient and Accurate Spatio‐Temporal Population Monitoring of Mobile Animals Using Drones and Computer Vision

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Drones and computer vision offer an efficient way to estimate animal populations over localized areas, but surveys often require stitching many overlapping images together. If animals move during the survey, traditional orthomosaic‐based counting methods become unreliable, with some animals appearing in multiple locations while others appear not at all,

High‐Resolution Satellite Imagery Reveals Landscape‐Scale Benthic Habitat Changes in a Turbid Coral Reef

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
High‐resolution satellite imagery and landscape metrics revealed a 77% decline in coral‐dominated habitats at Abrolhos Bank between 2010 and 2024, accompanied by macroalgal and zoanthid expansion. Spatial reorganisation indicates increasing fragmentation, homogenisation and loss of reef structural complexity.

Integrated assessment of meteorological drought impacts on terrestrial water storage and vegetation dynamics in East Africa

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Abstract Water is essential for life, and effective hydrological management is crucial for economic stability and quality of life. Poor water resource governance can lead to scarcity, displacement, or even fatal consequences. Hydrological conditions in East Africa are influenced by drivers such as demographic expansion, industrialization, droughts, and

Localizable Climate Change Education in Schools: Examining Impacts on Students' Environmental Science Agency

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As our daily lives become increasingly affected by climate change, school‐based science education plays a critical role in preparing students to understand and respond to this global crisis. This cohort controlled quasi‐experimental study conducted in the United States examined whether a localized climate change storyline unit compared to ...

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

Regional Sustainable Economic Development in the Caribbean? A Discursive Inquiry

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Caribbean region is governed by several regional bodies. Among the more important organizations for small island states, where coral reefs and ocean conservation are paramount, is the Caribbean Community (CARICOM). Currently, the region is going through critical environmental changes that bring important vulnerabilities.

RETRACE Project: How to Enhance Resilience to Climate Risks in Pacific and Arctic Indigenous Communities?

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Risk management has evolved to analyze risks in a systemic way, integrating local knowledge with the abstract concept of resilience, which is now an imperative for vulnerable and exposed communities. However, existing decision‐support tools are mainly focused on technical‐functional aspects and, although based on rigorous and scientific ...
