The anatomy of exhumed river-channel belts: Bedform to belt‐scale river kinematics of the Ruby Ranch Member, Cretaceous Cedar Mountain Formation, Utah, USA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Many published interpretations of ancient fluvial systems have relied on observations of extensive outcrops of thick successions. This paper, in contrast, demonstrates that a regional understanding of palaeoriver kinematics, depositional setting and ...

‘Using anuran community diversity and Pseudacris crucifer to predict landscape quality across a land use gradient'

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As human‐modified landscape and climate changes proliferate, maintaining biodiversity and understanding the function and quality of available habitat is imperative. As anurans (frogs/toads) such as Pseudacris crucifer, can be an indicator species of habitat quality and ecosystem productivity, studying the anuran community in a mixed‐land use region ...

Experimental lure design reveals the best attractants for increasing detection of multiple mesocarnivores

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many mesocarnivores have low detection rates that hinder practitioners' abilities to implement effective monitoring strategies. Using olfactory attractants (i.e. lures) may increase detection rates, but variation in effects among species is not well understood.

A Bridge Transformer Network With Deep Graph Convolution for Hyperspectral Image Classification

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transformers have been widely applied to hyperspectral image classification, leveraging their self‐attention mechanism for powerful global modelling. However, two key challenges remain as follows: excessive memory and computational costs from calculating correlations between all tokens (especially as image size or spectral bands increase) and ...

Comparing the success and failure of the Murray–Darling Basin Plan's water recovery programs

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract The Murray–Darling Basin (MDB) Plan is held up by some as an exemplar for world‐leading water policy, whilst others have called it a failure. Total proposed recovery was to return 3200 GL of consumptive (e.g. namely irrigation) water use to non‐consumptive (e.g.

125 years of exploration and research at Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK) 125 ans d'exploration et de recherches à Gough's Cave (Somerset, Royaume‐Uni)

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Our understanding of the recolonization of northwest Europe in the period leading up to the Lateglacial Interstadial relies heavily on discoveries from Gough's Cave (Somerset, UK). Gough's Cave is the richest Late Upper Palaeolithic site in the British Isles, yielding an exceptional array of human remains, stone and organic artefacts, and butchered ...

Origin of Grassy Lake [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Two theories have been proposed to explain the formation of Grassy Lake. One attributes the formation of the swamp to earthquake; the other states that it is one of the many so-called oxbow lakes in the area.

Insurance and the “Irrationalization” of Disaster Policy: A Political Crisis Theory for an Age of Climate Risk

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the last several years, disaster insurance programs around the world have experienced disruptions that many observers interpret to be a primary symptom of “climate crisis” (Bittle 2024). Governments have responded to these disruptions through disjointed and at times contradictory measures: they treat disasters, alternately, as “Acts of God”
