Bee community and trait‐based responses to fire in a Mediterranean landscape
Fire drives a short‐term increase in bee abundance and diversity, despite its strong negative impact on floral resources. Acting as an environmental filter, fire shapes bee communities as increased post‐fire fine‐scale heterogeneity favors bees with specific functional traits such as ground‐nesting and generalist species.

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...

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

Abstract Introduction Globally, livestock grazing is a key driver of vegetation degradation in arid rangelands. This degradation tends to be most severe near artificial water points which are focal points for livestock activity. Conservation reserves have been established on former rangelands; however, the timeframes for vegetation recovery following ...

Analysis of Models to Estimate Morbidity Rates of Respiratory Diseases Through Deep Learning
ABSTRACT Respiratory diseases remain a challenge in Brazil due to socioeconomic inequalities and environmental risks that intensify population vulnerability. This study compared XGBoost with a deep learning model using stacked Gated Recurrent Units (GRU), trained with morbidity data from respiratory diseases and exogenous variables such as per capita ...
