Multi‐Species Impacts of Invasive Opuntia Cacti on Mammal Habitat Use
Biological invasions impact ecosystems worldwide, including through changing the behaviour of native species. Here, we used camera traps to investigate the effects of invasive Opuntia spp. on the habitat use of 12 mammal species in an internationally important region of mammalian biodiversity.

Microhabitat Segregation of Co‐Existing Nightjar Species in The Gambia
We studied the spatial distribution and habitat use of Long‐tailed Nightjar (Caprimulgus climacurus) and Standard‐winged Nightjar (Caprimulgus longipennis) in The Gambia to test the hypothesis of spatial niche partitioning. Our findings reveal that while the species co‐occur at the landscape scale, they avoid each other at finer spatial scales ...

Abstract The Martian surface, with its diverse landforms that reflect the planet's evolution, has attracted increasing scientific interest. While extensive data is needed for interpretation, identifying landform types is crucial. This semantic information reveals underlying features and patterns, offering valuable scientific insights.

Effect of Soil Type on Running Performance of Small Lunar Rover
It is very easy for a small lunar rover to slip on the regolith of the lunar surface and become stuck. Previous studies have quantitatively evaluated the effects of wheel geometry, such as elliptical or eccentric wheels, on the performance of a rover ...

Abstract (Titano)magnetite is the major magnetic carrier in igneous rocks, whether it can decode the influence of subduction fluids and fractional crystallization characteristics in back‐arc basins is unclear. Here, we performed petrographic and magnetic analyses on volcanic samples from the Okinawa Trough, with titanomagnetite as the dominant magnetic
