Multi-Temporal Mineral Mapping in Two Torrential Basins Using PRISMA Hyperspectral Imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The Sierra Minera de Cartagena-La Unión, located in southeast of the Iberian Peninsula, has been significantly impacted by historical mining activities, which resulted in environmental degradation, including acid mine drainage (AMD) and heavy metal ...

Aperiodic Clustered and Periodic Hexagonal Vegetation Spot Arrays Explained by Inhomogeneous Environments and Climate Trends in Arid Ecosystems

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 21, 16 November 2025.
Abstract Due to climate change, overgrazing, and deforestation, arid ecosystems are vulnerable to desertification and land degradation. As aridity increases, vegetation cover loses spatial homogeneity and self‐organizes into heterogeneous vegetation patterns, a step before a catastrophic shift to bare soil.

Reinvent Geodiversity

open access: yesCybergeo : revue européenne de géographie / European journal of geography, 1999
1999 is drawing to a close, and except for worries about the computer bug the countdown to 2000 appears not to be exciting millenarian fears. Let's just hope that this new date line does not have consequences like those for the unfortunate passengers shipwrecked on the island of the day before as related by Umberto Eco.

Geography, Environmental Conditions and Life History Shape Patterns of Within‐Population Phenotypic Variation in North American Birds

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 11, November 2025.
Intraspecific variation is a fundamental component of biodiversity, shaping species interactions and coexistence dynamics. While numerous mechanisms have been proposed to shape the degree of phenotypic variation within species, many remain largely untested or poorly explored at broad spatial and taxonomic scales.

International Geodiversity Day: broadening values and justifications for geosciences in society

open access: yesEarth Science, Systems and Society
Geodiversity is the literal and metaphorical bedrock for life on Earth, and yet it lacks the standing of biodiversity as a concept that generates research and action beyond its base academic discipline.

Linking Remote Sensing and Geodiversity and Their Traits Relevant to Biodiversity—Part I: Soil Characteristics

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
In the face of rapid global change it is imperative to preserve geodiversity for the overall conservation of biodiversity. Geodiversity is important for understanding complex biogeochemical and physical processes and is directly and indirectly linked to ...

Fire and geodiversity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Wildland Fire
Geodiversity elements contribute significantly to local and global hydrological, biogeochemical and ecosystem services and as such, fire is a potentially disruptive force with long-term implications. from limiting karstic speleothems formation, to compounding impacts of peat-fire-erosion cycles.

Oxford: W.J. Arkell’s coral city

open access: yesGeology Today, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 251-259, November/December 2025.
The city of Oxford, in south‐central England, is partly surrounded by hills on which coral‐rich limestones crop out. The coral developments constitute small reefs and formed during a widely documented Late Jurassic (mid‐Oxfordian) warming episode, near the northern limit of reef growth at that time.

Advancing causal inference in ecology: Pathways for biodiversity change detection and attribution

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, Page 2276-2304, October 2025.
Abstract Understanding the causes of biodiversity change is essential for addressing environmental challenges. While causal attribution has advanced in other fields, ecologists remain cautious about causal claims or misinterpret predictive models as causal.
