Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation
Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

On the modeling of green corridors with Agent-Based simulations
, 2018 Among those strategies that try to safeguard biodiversity by intervening on habitat fragmentation, the so-called “wildlife corridors” are of utmost importance. These green corridors generally consist on infrastructures realized to connect habitats and natural areas; however, as they are often time- and resource-consuming, their traditionally heuristic ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study presents an integrated workflow to evaluate secure and large‐scale CO2 storage in depleted oil reservoirs of the Cambay Basin, India. Industrial CO2 sources are systematically matched with mature oil fields using a quantitative source–sink framework to minimize transport distance and cost.

Ecography, EarlyView.Habitat fragmentation alters species diversity and reshapes community composition. However, conventional pairwise approaches to compositional variation (i.e. beta diversity metrics) do not explicitly characterize how species sharing or turnover change with the number of habitat patches.

From patterns to predictions: a framework for the spatial epidemiology of wildlife diseases
Ecography, EarlyView.Wildlife diseases pose a significant threat to biodiversity conservation, public health, and livestock. Spatial epidemiology provides a robust framework to understand disease dynamics and guide policy and management. However, the rapid proliferation of spatial methods has largely occurred in isolation across disciplines, leaving the field without a ...

Predicting connectivity from movement trajectories and step selection
Ecography, EarlyView.Predicting and mapping connectivity are essential for ecology and conservation in the face of environmental change. Yet connectivity modeling is challenging because it requires understanding how organisms successfully move across complex landscapes.

Ecography, EarlyView.Understanding how species' sensitivity to climate varies spatially across their ranges and elucidating the important causes is essential for identifying ecologically meaningful geographic units and conservation actions for biodiversity. In this study, we estimated climatic occurrence niches of vascular plants to explore the spatial variation in species'
