Morphometric analysis of cirques in central Siberia's western Putorana Plateau: a proxy for palaeoclimate

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
A detailed morphometric analysis of 200 cirques across the western Putorana Plateau, central Siberia, was undertaken to investigate cirque development, reconstruct glaciers and infer palaeoclimatic conditions. Cirques are amphitheatre‐shaped landforms with mean length and widths of 936 and 1000 m, respectively, indicating a mature glacial landscape ...

Authoring Terrestrial Planets with Diffusion Models

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract To support the design and subsequent generation of terrestrial planets for use in the creative media, we propose a solution that employs a generative model trained on satellite data from planetary bodies with a defined solid surface, such as the Earth and Mars.

Evolutionary framework and tribal circumscription of Amaranthaceae sensu stricto based on a comprehensive phylogenomic analysis

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The evolutionary history of Amaranthaceae sensu stricto (s.s.) has been shaped by multiple whole‐genome duplications and rapid radiations, producing an ecologically diverse lineage whose internal relationships have long remained unresolved.

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Protected areas on international borders show uneven conservation outcomes

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Border protected areas (BPAs) are national protected areas that are immediately adjacent to a country's border or span two or more countries; they are characterized by distinctive opportunities and pressures. They play a critical role in protecting carbon‐rich ecosystems, conserving endangered biodiversity, reducing cross‐border environmental ...

Local perceptions of Asiatic black bear conservation in a subsistence agriculture community of Mustang, Nepal

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Household surveys in Kunjo, Mustang district examined local perceptions of Asiatic black bear conservation, crop damage, and human‐bear interactions. Crop damage was greater near forest edges, while more than half of households have negative attitude towards bear conservation. The findings highlight the importance of incorporating local perceptions and
