The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We examined habitat associations from second‐ and third‐order habitat selection studies conducted on greater sage‐grouse and summarize the types of designs used and the qualitative associations reported. We suggest a combination of study design choices and context‐dependence selection patterns can prohibit the transferability of study findings when the

Crater-like landform in Bayuda desert (a processing of satellite images) [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 The paper is proposing a survey of a region in Sudan, the Bayuda desert, using the satellite images as obtained from Google Maps. The images reveal the ring granitic structure of the region enclosed by a bend of river Nile. To enhance the features of the landform, images are processed with a method based on fractional calculus, able to increase the ...

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Human impact in the form of reservoir construction and river regulation downstream of reservoirs, is causing irreversible alterations to hillslope and river channel connectivity in river catchments. This disruption in the dynamic equilibrium of the river is attributed to sediment accumulation upstream of the reservoir's dam, limited sediment ...

Populism and policy capacity: Evidence from an opposition municipality in Istanbul
Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.Abstract Despite achievements in its conceptual rigor, policy capacity still represents a relatively depoliticized concept that fails to sufficiently consider the ways in which politics plays a role in its creation, mobilization, or decay. This article seeks to contribute to this debate by investigating the impact of populism on policy capacity, the ...

Andean terraced hills (a use of satellite imagery) [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 The aim of this paper is in stimulating the use of satellite imagery, in particular the free service of Google Maps, to investigate the distribution of the agricultural technique of terraced hills in Andean countries, near Titicaca Lake. In fact, satellite maps can give a clear view of the overall surface modified by human work, being then a precious ...

Impacts of thrusting, extensional faulting, and glaciation on cratering records of Pluto's largest moon Charon: Implications for the evolution of Kuiper belt objects [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Systematic geomorphological mapping and detailed landform analysis using the highest resolution images obtained by the New Horizons spacecraft reveal the presence of a range of differentiable terrains on Charon, the largest moon of Pluto, that were not examined in detail by the early studies.

Arabia: from craters to stone circles [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 The Arabia Shield has a volcanic nature inside. A region of the Western Saudi Arabia is in fact covered with vast fields of lava known as harraat. These lands are spotted by many stone circles and other quite interesting archaeological remains of the Neolithic period, such as the "desert kites", the hunters used to guide the game across the harrah in ...

Fluids mobilization in Arabia Terra, Mars: depth of pressurized reservoir from mounds self-similar clustering [PDF]
, 2019 Arabia Terra is a region of Mars where signs of past-water occurrence are recorded in several landforms. Broad and local scale geomorphological, compositional and hydrological analyses point towards pervasive fluid circulation through time. In this work we focus on mound fields located in the interior of three casters larger than 40 km (Firsoff, Kotido
