Understanding Mosquito Vector Invasion Pathways: Synergistic Effects of Human Mobility, Climate and Natural Dispersal. [PDF]
Mosquito‐borne diseases are increasing globally, driven by the expanding range of invasive vectors, yet the mechanisms of their spread remain poorly understood. Using 20 years of invasion data from Spain, we combine high‐resolution human mobility data with a metapopulation model to study the colonisation dynamics of Aedes albopictus.

Dry–Hot Compound Events Driving the 2024 Pantanal Wildfires
Extreme wildfires in the Pantanal in 2024 were driven by a cascade of heatwaves, rainfall deficits and the absence of the annual flood pulse. These conditions dried soils and rivers, enhanced fuel accumulation and enabled early and intense fire outbreaks.

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

State‐of‐the‐art, convection‐permitting NWP models reproduced the main features of the October 22–23, 2019 heavy precipitation event in Catalonia. However, slight configuration changes yielded varying streamflow responses and statistical performance, highlighting the challenge of simulating these events in Mediterranean medium‐sized basins ...

Extreme rainfall in Madeira: the June 2023 weather event
This study investigates the meteorological conditions behind the extreme precipitation event on 6 June 2023 over Madeira Island, Portugal. The event set a national daily record of 497.5mm and was unusual for occurring in early summer, as most extremes in the region occur in winter.

Radiographic evaluation of 70 vervet monkeys (Chlorocebus aethiops) maintained under human care revealed a high prevalence of age‐related spinal degeneration. Osteophytes emerged earliest and most prominently in the lumbar region. These region‐specific patterns parallel those reported in other catarrhine primates, supporting C.

Conceptual diagram of hydrological and geochemical processes within the Santa Elena Ophiolite, Costa Rica. It highlights watershed cross‐sections, soil genesis, hyperalkaline Type II waters (pH > 11.6) with calcite crust and trapped H2/CH4 gases, seepage into surface waters, storm‐impacted stream profiles, weathered vs.

Abstract Climate change alters lake functioning, water quality, and aquatic biota; yet our understanding of this process is poor for deep tropical mountain lakes. A 15‐yr dataset (2010–2024) from Lake Atitlán, Guatemala, revealed climate change impacts on a tropical lake ecosystem and showed a warming trend of 0.34 ± 0.14°C per decade that intensified ...

In this study, we experimentally show that stochasticity can play prominent roles in driving local species assembly in annual plant‐dominated communities of semiarid gypsum ecosystems. Drylands are traditionally viewed as restrictive environments that impose strong deterministic filtering effects, but neutral events can also contribute decisively to ...
