Non‐stationary forest responses to hotter droughts: a temporal perspective considering the role of past legacies

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Global change is altering forests worldwide, with multiple consequences for ecosystem functioning. Temporal changes in climate, and extreme, compounded weather events like hotter droughts are affecting the demography, composition and function of forests, leading to a highly uncertain future.

A New Weighting Scheme in Weighted Markov Model for Predicting the Probability of Drought Episodes

open access: yes, 2018
Drought is a complex stochastic natural hazard caused by prolonged shortage of rainfall. Several environmental factors are involved in determining drought classes at the specific monitoring station. Therefore, efficient sequence processing techniques are

Integrating host condition into spatiotemporal multiscale models improves virus shedding predictions

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding where and when pathogens occur in the environment has implications for reservoir population health and infection risk. In reservoir hosts, infection status and pathogen shedding are affected by processes interacting across different scales: from landscape features affecting host location and transmission to within‐host processes affecting

Analysis and critical assessment of the current and near future plans of the Brazilian satellite applications program and its role in the global space program [PDF]

open access: yes
Brazilian programs using satellites for remote sensing, meteorology and communications are analyzed including their current status and near future plans. The experience gained and available information are used to critically discuss some aspects of great

Seascape configuration determines spatial patterns of seabird‐vectored nutrient enrichment to coral reefs

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Pelagic‐feeding seabirds deliver nutrient subsidies that enhance the productivity, biodiversity, and resilience of terrestrial and marine ecosystems, particularly in nutrient‐poor tropical environments. However, the biogeophysical variables governing the fluxes of these nutrients within and among interconnected ecosystems remain poorly understood.

Benoit Mandelbrot (1924 - 2011 ) : A Greek among Romans [PDF]

open access: yes
Posthumous tributes to Benoit Mandelbrot (1924-2010) have highlighted his remarkable influence on the natural sciences, from geometry to meteorology, to theories with non-Euclidean spaces and geospatial models approach.
