We studied the effects of urban growth on wildlife near Parque Nacional Marino las Baulas, Costa Rica. Since 1991, buildings increased 1007%, mainly in the buffer zone. We identified eight native species extracting garbage from containers, with raccoons (Procyon lotor) comprising most detections (84%), and four other species being potential sea turtle ...

Ewangoa, a new threatened Central African genus of Euphorbiaceae‐Acalyphoideae
Abstract A new morphologically divergent genus and species of Euphorbiaceae from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ewangoa cardiophora, is described and illustrated. This taxon is easily recognised by its leaf‐opposed inflorescences, which are surrounded by a single cordiform involucral bract. Molecular phylogenetic evidence shows that Ewangoa is a

The Maturation of AI in Drought Science: A Review of Trends, Pitfalls, and Priorities
Abstract Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a key tool in drought research, with applications growing rapidly over the past 20 years. While several reviews have described specific ML methods and their use in forecasting and monitoring, a comprehensive assessment of trends, gaps, and emerging challenges is lacking.

Unravelling the spatial and temporal variability of natural disturbances in European forests
The heterogeneity of natural disturbance patterns and high temporal variability across European Forest suggest the need of adopting context‐dependent management strategies tailored to both the dominant disturbance agent and local environmental conditions, particularly in the most vulnerable regions, such as the Iberian Peninsula—with large and frequent
