Machine learning-driven integration of time-series InSAR and multiple surface factors for landslide identification and susceptibility assessment

International Journal of Digital Earth
Landslides pose a significant threat to the safety of reservoirs, particularly those situated in canyon terrains. This study aims to enhance the safety and security of reservoir areas by proposing an integrated method for the automatic identification and

Opium Cultivation Imperilling Endangered Species in Northern Laos

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
To avoid government eradication efforts, farmers in northeastern Laos shifted opium cultivation deep into a national park, causing a > 1000% increase in protected forest cleared for the crop between 2018 and 2022. This displacement directly threatened endangered species like white‐cheeked gibbons, elephants, and dholes by causing a rise in hunting ...

Modelling Patterns of Past Inundation Processes Combining Geoarchaeology and Morphometric Hydrological Analysis in the Shashe‐Limpopo Basin, South Africa

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverine and valley systems across the globe have been central to the development of past urban centres. By AD 900, the Shashe and Limpopo Rivers seem to have facilitated the interaction and integration of early farming communities in southern Africa. This paper focuses on the application of geoarchaeological perspectives made available by the

AlpIce‐1: a database of geochronological and geomorphological constraints on Alps‐wide palaeoglacier fluctuations between the Last Glacial Maximum and the Holocene

Boreas, EarlyView.
The AlpIce‐1 database is the first compilation of published geomorphological and geochronological markers constraining build‐up, culmination and decay of glaciers from the Last Glacial Maximum through the Holocene across the entire European Alps. AlpIce‐1 integrates more than 4200 surface‐exposure and radiocarbon ages, homogenized, quality controlled ...

Landslide Mapping and Susceptibility Assessment in the Middle and Lower Reaches of the Nujiang River (2017–2025) Using Satellite Embedding and Multidimensional Environmental Factors

Remote Sensing
Landslide mapping and susceptibility assessment are essential for hazard identification, infrastructure protection, and risk management. The middle and lower reaches of the Nujiang River have high relief, rapid geomorphic change, and fragile landscape ...

Incorporating light pollution into projections of the future distribution of Aspisoma sticticum Gemminger, 1870 under climate change in South America

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Climate‐only models predict severe habitat contractions by 2100, especially in the Amazon, Cerrado and Caatinga, while southern and coastal Atlantic Forest areas remain refugial. Including artificial light at night increased projected stability and apparent suitability gains, especially in central and eastern South America.

Remarks on the Role of Landslide Inventories in the Statistical Methods Used for the Landslide Susceptibility Assessment

, 2017
In this work, the role of different landslide inventories in susceptibility assessment was evaluated using a non linear regression technique, namely the generalized additive model (GAM).The investigation was carried out in three study areas: the Versa ...

Regional Landslide Susceptibility Assessment and Model Adaptability Research

Remote Sensing
Landslide susceptibility denotes the likelihood of a disaster event under specific conditions. The assessment of landslide susceptibility has transitioned from qualitative to quantitative methods. With the integration of information technology in geological hazard analysis, a range of quantitative models for assessing landslide susceptibility has ...

Natural disaster risk salience and the strategic appointment of directors with sustainability expertise

Journal of Financial Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines how salient sustainability risks from near‐miss natural disasters influence board composition. Using a difference‐in‐differences design, I find that firms located in counties neighboring disaster‐affected areas significantly increase the presence of directors with sustainability expertise following the disaster.
