The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Models of spatiotemporal variation in hunter harvest show that monsoon precipitation and changes in hunter behavior and composition are the primary drivers underlying variation in annual harvest of Montezuma quail. The demographic structure of the previous year's harvest was also strongly associated with the magnitude and rate of annual harvest ...

Shui kexue jinzhan, 2019 The characteristics of local scour around large-diameter submerged cylinders are quite different from the non-submerged ones under combined wave and current conditions. Local scour model tests are carried out in a wave-current flume. A submerged cylinder

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Snowshoe hare population densities in Pennsylvania were greatest in early‐successional forest and densely‐understoried mature forest. Forest management that increases and maintains the amount of early‐successional forest, or that increases understory complexity in mature forest, would benefit snowshoe hares and may mitigate population declines under ...

Propagation modes of 3D scour below a submarine pipeline in oblique steady currents and waves [PDF]
, 2016 This paper presents experimental results on 3D scour propagation along a pipeline under oblique-incidence currents and waves. Different modes of 3D scour propagation were discovered after the local scour was initiated below the pipeline.

A Land Potential‐Based Framework for Wind Erosion and Sand and Dust Storm Source Mitigation
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Wind erosion and sand and dust storms are a global challenge. While many management practices to mitigate sources of wind erosion and sand and dust storms have been documented, existing guidance largely emphasizes what practices are available, with limited information on where and under what ecological conditions they should be applied.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Long‐term ecological studies are critical for evaluating restoration strategies on challenging sites, such as closed landfills. This study presents a 23‐year biodiversity monitoring program (2000–2023) at the restored Southeast New Territories sanitary landfill in Hong Kong.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mining activities severely disturb land surfaces and hydrological processes, intensifying hillslope erosion and soil loss. To evaluate the effectiveness of post‐mining restoration measures and identify the factors regulating their performance, we compiled a global dataset of runoff and soil erosion yield from 58 studies spanning multiple mine ...
