A Generic Approach to Creating a National Soil Security Strategy

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is a living and non‐renewable resource that underpins our very existence. It produces our food, filters our water, stores vast amounts of carbon, cycles essential nutrients, and sustains the rich tapestry of biodiversity on which our planet depends.

AI‐Powered GPR Characterization of Peatland Underground Cavity Induced by Smoldering Wildfire: A Laboratory Proof‐of‐Concept

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
We present an AI‐assisted ground‐penetrating radar framework to noninvasively detect and quantify smoldering wildfire‐induced subsurface cavities in peatlands. A ResNet model accurately predicts cavity geometry from GPR images, enabling improved assessment of underground fire damage and hazards.

Evaluation of factors affecting greater prairie‐chicken nest and brood survival

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Greater prairie‐chickens Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus in the Flint Hills ecoregion select recently burned grasslands for brooding and nest in areas that have been unburned for 1–3 years, suggesting the need for a mosaic of burn patches. However, it is unknown how patch area, configuration, and proximity to edges within such mosaics affect reproductive ...

Cryptic variation within and among islands in the ultraviolet reflectance of lizard throat coloration

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Identifying the existence of ‘cryptic’ morphs is critical in animal ecology for providing a basis for accurately testing links between phenotype and environment. This study identifies the existence of previously undocumented variation in UV reflectance in Aegean wall lizards that likely has novel behavioural and evolutionary implications within this ...

A Forward Modeling Approach for the Vicarious Validation of the Thermal Infrared Sensor On-Board Landsat 8 and 9

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The Landsat program has maintained a continuous, global thermal record for over 40 years, supporting various long-term Earth observation scientific studies. We present an in-flight validation of Landsat 8 and Landsat 9 thermal infrared sensor (TIRS) data

A Decadal Home‐Range Dynamics and Habitat Shift in Golden Snub‐Nosed Monkey (Rhinopithecus roxellana)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides novel insights into the biogeographic patterns of the Sichuan golden snub‐nosed monkey, particularly in terms of habitat suitability and spatial‐use strategies. We found that habitat suitability has expanded over the past decade, with substantial shifts in the environmental factors influencing habitat suitability, from terrain and ...

Can the MODIS EVI formula be directly applied to other sensor data? A case study with Landsat data

GIScience & Remote Sensing
The question of whether the MODIS enhanced vegetation index (EVI) can be directly applied to other satellite sensors has remained unexplored for nearly three decades since its development.

Water quality assessment of Loktak Lake, Manipur using Landsat 9 imagery

Water Practice & Technology
ABSTRACT The role of freshwater lakes in providing water resources and supporting ecosystems is essential. Monitoring water quality using remote sensing (RS) technologies is crucial for sustainable management practices. A study on Loktak Lake was done using RS algorithms to predict post-monsoon water quality.
