Dynamics of Impervious Surfaces and Vegetation in Core Urban Areas of Global Megacities
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote SensingAlthough many studies have shown that the expansion of impervious surfaces such as artificial buildings and roads is accompanied by a decrease in urban vegetation, recent studies have also pointed out that urban greening measures can promote vegetation ...

Enhancing Recharge in the Edwards Aquifer, Texas: Measures, Outcomes, and Lessons for Karst Aquifers
Groundwater, EarlyView.Abstract Managed aquifer recharge is a widely adopted method that involves storing excess water underground for future use. While managed aquifer recharge has been applied globally to different aquifer types, its use in karst aquifers is less common due to the unique hydrogeological characteristics of these systems, including high permeability ...

Leaky Sewers Hydraulically Disconnect from Groundwater: A Proof‐of‐Concept
Groundwater, EarlyView.In this study, we newly demonstrate that leaky pipes can become hydraulically disconnected from the underlying groundwater—a phenomenon analogous to river–groundwater interactions. Through numerical modeling, we show that, as the groundwater table declines, the leakage flux from the pipe (in absolute terms) initially increases until a critical depth ...

Urban peatlands can harbour diverse insect communities but depend on appropriate habitat management
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Urban peatlands can support high insect diversity, including endangered species and peat bog specialists. Flower diversity boosts endangered species, while succession cover reduces overall insect richness—but bog condition and urbanization showed no major effects.

Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.The Urban Heat Island Effect (UHI) can potentially subject insects to heat and desiccation stress and likely induce shifts in their cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profile. We expected that warmer urbanized areas favour longer chain length of hydrocarbons as well as higher abundance of n‐alkanes in three Hymenoptera species. We found that temperature, more

Automatic impervious surface mapping in subtropical China via a terrain-guided gated fusion network
International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and GeoinformationLarge-scale, high-resolution and multi-temporal impervious surface maps from remote sensing are essential for socioeconomic and environmental studies. However, in complex regions like subtropical China, climate and terrain severely contaminate optical ...

Becoming Dostoevsky (how Rowan Williams opens up Bakhtin)
Modern Theology, EarlyView.Abstract With the end of Communism in Russia, non‐materialist contexts were enthusiastically restored to Mikhail Bakhtin's globally famous ideas of carnival, dialogism, and polyphony. This essay surveys Rowan Williams's 2008 study Dostoevsky: Language, Faith + Fiction as a major contribution to this effort, concentrating on those general philosophical ...

The (trans)national Russian religious imagination in exile: Iulia de Beausobre (1893‐1977)
Modern Theology, EarlyView.Abstract The article offers a case study of how Russian Orthodox who migrated from the Soviet Union after the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 reimagined their religious identity and their church in a transnational setting. Iulia de Beausobre (1893‐1977) was a Russian aristocrat who fell victim to the Stalinist purges but survived the Soviet prison system ...

Long‐term stability of horizontal bone augmentation at implant sites
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Horizontal bone augmentation is a fundamental surgical procedure in regenerative implant dentistry. In recent decades, this procedure has evolved, enabling clinicians to achieve predictable and stable horizontal bone augmentation that supports dental implant restorations.
