Modelling impacts of vegetation cover change on regional climate [PDF]

, 2009
Extensive areas of native vegetation in Queensland and other states have been cleared for agriculture, improved pastures and urban development. However, the potential impact of land clearing on Australia’s climate has been largely ignored in current ...

Cotton Recruits Soil‐Derived Delftia tsuruhatensis to Suppress Aphid Detoxification Via Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Defense

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study systematically reveals a complex interactive network involving plants, microbes, and insects, elucidating the ecological and molecular mechanisms by which cotton enhances its resistance to aphids through the active recruitment of the beneficial soil bacterium Delftia tsuruhatensis.

Beyond land cover change

Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability, 2019
Land use models play an important role in exploring future land change dynamics and are instrumental to support the integration of knowledge in land system science. However, only modest progress has been made in achieving these aims due to insufficient model evaluation and limited representation of the underlying socio-ecological processes.

Comparing regional differentiation of land cover changes in natural and administrative regions of the Czech Republic using multivariate statistics [PDF]

The detection and evaluations of land cover changes represent the major task for landscape transformation studies in post-communistic countries. The results of such evaluation are, however, highly influenced by spatial delimitation of monitored units as ...

Land cover change effects on land surface temperature trends in an African urbanizing dryland region [PDF]

, 2019
Land use-land cover (LULC) association with land surface temperature (LST) is well known. Knowledge about land change effects on LST in urbanizing African drylands is very limited. We examined LST and vegetation variations in semi-arid Gaborone (Botswana'

Enhancing Li‐S Battery Performance Through Low‐Concentration Electrolytes with Organic Se/Te Co‐Additives to Address Solubility and Kinetic Challenges

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents a low‐concentration electrolyte enabled by hybrid organic Se/Te additives (DPDSe/DPDTe) that restructures solvation, boosts polysulfide dissolution, and provides dual‐site synergistic catalysis, delivering high capacity and stable cycling in Li–S coin and pouch cells, supporting high‐energy, high‐power operation.
