Coal Mining as a Driver of Land Use and Land Cover Change and Degradation: A Case in Moatize City, Mozambique

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 9126-9143, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Coal remains a major global energy source despite ongoing environmental controversies, particularly, regarding climate change and landscape transformation. This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of land use and land cover (LULC) in the Moatize Coal Basin (MCB), Mozambique, between 1990 and 2024, with a specific focus on land ...

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1641-1661, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Home Range and Habitat Selection of the Endangered Red Goshawk (Erythrotriorchis radiatus) Across Australia's Tropical Savannas

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We used long‐term GPS tracking to quantify home‐range size and habitat selection of the endangered Red Goshawk across tropical savannas of northern Australia. Red Goshawks occupied extensive overall home ranges, with well‐defined core ranges centred on nest sites.

Unraveling Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity and Driving Mechanism of Vegetation Recovery in Co‐Seismic Landslide Areas via Nonlinear Trajectories and Bayesian Networks

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We developed an integrated GAM–Bayesian framework to diagnose the nonlinear recovery dynamics of vegetation in landslide‐affected areas. Our model reveals that most sites reached a key recovery inflection point within 5–7 years, with faster recovery occurring under warm, moist, and moderate light conditions.
