Spatiotemporal Fire Patterns and Post‐fire Forest Change in Peru (2000–2021)

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire is increasingly more frequent and severe in many tropical regions, leading to significant forest loss, diminished biodiversity, and reduced Nature's contributions to people (NCPs). In this study, we analyzed the spatiotemporal patterns of fire in Peru and its regions, focusing on: (1) burned area, (2) size, and (3) number of fires, using ...

Individual movement modeling expands the power of migratory species observations: North Atlantic right whale case study

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding a population's distribution depends on observing the presence and movement of individuals throughout their range. For highly mobile marine species, these observations typically rely on high effort monitoring programs. Tracking enough individuals to understand trends in movement behavior is not always logistically feasible, and ...

Lithospheric failure on Venus [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2003
Summary: We develop a predictive model which has the ability to explain a postulated style of episodic plate tectonics on Venus, through the periodic occurrence of lithospheric subduction events. Present-day incipient subduction zones are associated with the existence of arcuate trenches on the Venusian lithosphere.

Crustal fault reactivation facilitating lithospheric folding/buckling in the central Indian Ocean

, 1996
High-quality, normal-incidence seismic reflection data confirm that tectonic deformation in the central Indian Ocean occurs at two spatial scales: whole lithosphere folding with wavelengths varying between 100 and 300 km, and compressional reactivation ...

Crustal structure and rift flank uplift of the Adare Trough, Antarctica [PDF]

, 2005
The Adare Trough, located 100 km northeast of Cape Adare, Antarctica, represents the extinct third arm of a Tertiary spreading ridge between East and West Antarctica. It is characterized by pronounced asymmetric rift flanks elevated up to over 2 km above

Anaerobic Corrosion Phenomena of Cast Iron and Copper in Artificial Groundwater at Elevated Temperature

Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
This study examines corrosion of copper and cast iron as candidate canister materials for high‐level radioactive waste disposal in contact with bentonite suspension. The influence of three electrolyte compositions on corrosion behavior under repository‐relevant conditions is assessed.

The development of magmatism along the Cameroon Volcanic Line: evidence from seismicity and seismic anisotropy [PDF]

, 2014
The Cameroon Volcanic Line (CVL) straddles the continent-ocean boundary in West Africa but exhibits no clear age progression. This renders it difficult to explain by traditional plume/plate motion hypotheses; thus, there remains no consensus on the ...

Global analysis of annual survival among shorebirds reveals a negative effect of migration distance and a decline in recent decades

Oikos, EarlyView.
Annual survival is a key demographic parameter driving population trends in wildlife populations. However, despite numerous species‐specific or regional studies, global reviews of the factors affecting the survival of declining taxa remain scarce. Here, we investigated annual survival of fledged immature and adult shorebirds, a globally‐distributed and

Atmospheric and Ionospheric Effects of La Palma Volcano 2021 Eruption

Atmosphere, 2023
On 19 September 2021, La Palma volcano (Canarias Archipelagos) started an eruption that persisted until 13 December 2021. Despite the Volcano Explosive Index (VEI) being estimated equal to 3, corresponding to not so powerful eruption, the long eruption ...
