Stepping Up or Stepping Out? Sustainable Livelihood Resilience, Heterogeneous Strategies and Poverty Alleviation Among Retired Fishermen in the Yangtze River Basin

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ‘Ten‐Year Fishing Ban’ policy in the Yangtze River Basin has compelled over 230,000 fishermen to cease fishing and transition to alternative livelihoods, making their post‐ban livelihood development critical to the policy's long‐term effectiveness. Drawing on household survey data from Hubei and Hunan provinces—which account for nearly 40%

Biodiversity as a Dominant Force in Shaping Ethnic Music Styles 生物多样性:塑造民族音乐风格的主导力量

Integrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 236-245, June 2026.
Our findings show that plant, bird, and mammal diversity considerably shape musical features such as vocal range and ornamental sounds, more so than geography or lifestyle. Our study provides the first empirical evidence linking biodiversity to ethnic music styles. Protecting biodiversity, the musical and cultural will be protected.

An In-Depth UAS-PPK Georeferencing Analysis at Different Flight Heights for an Urban Area

IEEE Access
Acquiring UAS images in urban environments presents a significant importance for various applications but presents challenges, particularly with flight missions and the reliability of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal.

Marine Parasite Biogeography Mirrors Host Patterns Across Latitude, Area, and Diversity

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Parasites are integral components of biodiversity, yet they remain poorly represented in large‐scale biogeographic theory. In this study, we test whether marine parasites follow three macroecological patterns established for free‐living taxa, namely that parasite species richness: (1) scales positively with area (both host body size and geographic area)

Reactivation Mechanism of Dormant Earthflows: Insights From the San Benedetto Landslide (Northern Apennines, Italy)

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Earthflows are landslides in fine‐grained materials that alternate long dormant phases of very slow movement with short paroxysmal stages of rapid motion. These rapid phases are highly destructive, often causing severe damage to buildings and infrastructure.

Upzoning the YIMBY rent gap: A transit‐oriented spatial fix

Canadian Geographies / Géographies canadiennes, Volume 70, Issue 3, Autumn / automne 2026.
Abstract This paper takes up the phenomenon of transit‐oriented zoning reform as an urban planning solution to the housing crisis that promises affordability, sustainability, and racial justice. I hypothesize that upzoning near transit creates a vertical rent gap that represents a YIMBY (Yes in My Back Yard) spatial fix, a targeted spatial deregulation

UAV Data Collection Co-Registration: LiDAR and Photogrammetric Surveys for Coastal Monitoring

Drones
When georeferencing is a key point of coastal monitoring, it is crucial to understand how the type of data and object characteristics can affect the result of the registration procedure, and, above all, how to assess the reconstruction accuracy. For this

The Most Elusive Amazonian Mammal? Distribution, Survey, Ecology and Conservation of the Bushy‐Tailed Opossum Glironia venusta

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 2, June 2026.
Integrating multiple data sources, we reveal a broader distribution for Glironia venusta and highlight how sampling strategies shape our understanding of rare arboreal mammals. ABSTRACT Introduction Arboreal and nocturnal mammals in the Amazon remain poorly understood due to low detectability and methodological limitations. Glironia venusta, one of the

Surface grain-size mapping of braided channels from SfM photogrammetry [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics
Braided channels are known as fluvial systems with a high heterogeneity of physical conditions, resulting from particularly active interacting processes of coarse sediment sorting and transport.

Spatiotemporal Quantification of Rugulopteryx okamurae in Beach Wrack Using UAV Multispectral Remote Sensing

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Excessive beach accumulations of stranded macrophytes, also known as wrack, are a growing challenge for coastal ecosystems and management, particularly when dominated by invasive species. The Asian brown alga Rugulopteryx okamurae has rapidly proliferated along the southern coast of Spain, causing significant ecological and socioeconomic ...
