Land Degradation Pathways of Open‐Pit and Underground Mining in Karst Regions: A Spatial Indicator Assessment

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 17, Page 12577-12588, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Mining in the karst regions of southwest China threatens ecosystem stability and accelerates land degradation. Regional evaluation rarely distinguishes between degradation pathways in open‐pit and underground operations, due to spatial heterogeneity and geomorphological confounding effects.

Karst Water Resources of Austria, Hydrogeological Aspects and Problems

open access: yes, 2018
Karst water is in Austria an important water resource for supplying the public with drinking water of acceptable or excellent water quality. About 50 % of the inhabitants of Austria are supplied with karst water.

From Trapped to Resilient Mountains: Diversified Coupling Pathways Linking Land Use Transition and Rural Revitalization for Mountain Sustainable Development

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 17, Page 12653-12672, November 2026.
ABSTRACT The synergistic interplay among land use transition, rural revitalization, and sustainable development is critical for harmonizing human‐land‐economic systems. Understanding their diverse coupling pathways is key to resolving human‐land conflicts and advancing sustainable rural development in mountainous regions. However, existing research has

The Exceptional Challenges of Si‐Based Anodes and the Eternal Hunt for Electrolyte Additives: A Perspective on the Example of a Novel Dioxazaborole‐Based Molecule

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2026.
An ideal electrolyte additive, particularly for Si‐based anodes, should (i) promote the formation of an effective SEI, i.e., passivating and suppressing LiPF6/SiOx‐contact, (ii) minimize active Li loss (ALL) through efficient SEI formation, (iii) ideally enable “SEI‐waste” recovery and/or (iv) undergo sacrificial oxidation for prelithiation purposes ...

Imbalanced Gray‐Green Infrastructure Closely Parallels Extreme Rainfall‐Flood Resilience Inequality Between Mainstream and Tributary Cities in the Pearl River Basin, Southern China

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract Climate change and rapid urbanization are intensifying flood risks, making unequal gray‐green infrastructure (GGI) provision a growing concern for extreme rainfall‐flood resilience (ERFR). However, how GGI inequality corresponds with ERFR differences between mainstream and tributary cities remains insufficiently understood.

The Late Agricultural Development of Central Arabian Oases—Archaeobotanical and Archaeozoological Studies of the al‐Kharj Oasis

open access: yesArabian Archaeology and Epigraphy, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 317-355, November 2026.
ABSTRACT While oasis settlements emerged during the Bronze Age in Eastern and Northern Arabia, the settlement process in Central Arabia was different. Excavations at al‐Yamāma—main ancient settlement of the al‐Kharj oasis (Riyadh Province, KSA)—suggest that the latter did not emerge before the second half of the first millennium BCE.

Modelling of water regime in karst

open access: yes, 2005
Underground flow regime in karst areas completely differs from flow in intergranular aquifers. Hydraulically, this flow can be better described as a system of reservoirs and pipes with flow under pressure and with free surface, than as underground flow in intergranular aquifer.

Matched Relationships and Mechanisms of Water and Land Resources in Karst Mountainous Areas: A Review

open access: yes
The matching relationship between water and land resources in the karst mountains is closely related to regional ecological and environmental security, human well-being, and high-quality socio-economic development.

Global Status and Threats to Rock Dependent Reptiles

open access: yesConservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
ABSTRACT Rocky areas are widespread across many biomes globally and provide critical habitat for a diverse range of species. One group commonly associated with rocky areas are reptiles, with many species adapted to exploit the unique structural and microclimatic characteristics of rocky areas.
