Contrasting Responses of Rodents With Different Habitat Associations to Rapid Urbanization in a Chinese Megacity

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Rapid urbanization reshaped rodent populations, morphology, and gut microbiota along an urban–rural gradient. The synanthropic rat (Rattus norvegicus) increased in abundance toward the urban core and exhibited reduced ear and tail length, whereas the farmland mouse (Apodemus agrarius) and woodland rat (Niviventer confucianus) declined.

Aligning Transnational due Diligence: The EU Deforestation Regulation and Brazil's Fragmented Beef Governance

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transnational due diligence regulations, such as the European Union Regulation on Deforestation‐Free Products (EUDR), are reshaping sustainability governance by transforming voluntary norms into binding global rules. Yet, their effectiveness depends on how well they align with domestic governance systems and on the power asymmetries that ...

Remote sensing and integration of machine learning algorithms for above-ground biomass estimation in Larix principis-rupprechtii Mayr plantations: a case study using Sentinel-2 and Landsat-9 data in northern China

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Estimating above-ground biomass (AGB) is important for ecological assessment, carbon stock evaluation, and forest management. This research assesses the performance of the machine learning algorithms XGBoost, SVM, and RF using data from the Sentinel-2 ...

Comparative Performance of Sentinel-2 and Landsat-9 for LULC Mapping in Tropical Watersheds

Civil Engineering Journal
Rapid land-cover change in humid tropical island watersheds increases hydrometeorological risk. It strengthens the need for reliable land-use/land-cover (LULC) information to support defensible watershed management and hydrologic interpretation. In small, highly fragmented coastal-upland catchments, however, the extent to which sensor choice (Sentinel ...

Combined effects of the landscape and crop management on ant communities

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
At small spatial scales, agricultural management acts as a stronger ecological filter than landscape context, significantly shaping ant community composition. Species richness and frequency did not differ among treatments, indicating the predominance of generalist species.

Landsat-8/9 Atmospheric Correction Reliability Using Scene Statistics

Remote Sensing
Landsat data correction using the Land Surface Reflectance Code (LaSRC) has been proposed as the basis for the atmospheric correction of smallsats. While atmospheric correction can enhance smallsat data, the Landsat/LaSRC pathway delays output and may ...

Bureaucrat assignments as instruments of political control: Theory and evidence from land administration officials in India

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates how politicians use the assignment of officials to geographical posts—a personnel system found in many countries—as a system of incentives to control, and possibly corrupt, bureaucratic behavior. The argument is developed with a matching model and tested with a nationwide survey of Indian officials who administer land ...
