Adapting to Urban Heights: Multidimensional Gradients Drive Nest‐Selection Plasticity and Trade‐Offs in a Human‐Commensal Sparrow

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Urban Eurasian tree sparrows exhibit pronounced nest‐site plasticity, exploiting vertical building space while preferring lower nest heights when sites are abundant. Nest decisions are driven by altitude and building height rather than other factors, indicating a shift toward anthropogenic resources in cities.

ANALYSIS OF VEGETATION COVER CHANGES USING NORMALIZED DIFFERENCE VEGETATION INDEX (NDVI) IN BIRNIN KEBBI, NIGERIA

open access: yes
Vegetation absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, thereby mitigating the impact of global warming and climate change and also preventing desertification. In Nigeria, desertification poses a threat to the livelihoods of numerous communities, particularly in the northern region.

NDVI (Normalized difference vegetation index) Image of 2000 Enhanced Landsat Thematic Mapper Image

open access: yes, 2011
Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) produced from the 2000 Enhanced Landsat Thematic Mapper(ETM) image. NDVI is a means of monitoring density and vigour of green vegetation growth using the spectral reflectivity of solar radiation.

A Decadal Home‐Range Dynamics and Habitat Shift in Golden Snub‐Nosed Monkey (Rhinopithecus roxellana)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study provides novel insights into the biogeographic patterns of the Sichuan golden snub‐nosed monkey, particularly in terms of habitat suitability and spatial‐use strategies. We found that habitat suitability has expanded over the past decade, with substantial shifts in the environmental factors influencing habitat suitability, from terrain and ...

Reusing Geospatial Data of Invasive Alien Insect Species From the Literature: Significance, Challenges, and Potential

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We use bibliometric analysis to evaluate geospatial data reuse for invasive alien insect species (IAIS). Of 1032 relevant publications, 51.0% lacked downloadable raw data. Integrating cross‐regional, temporal, and multi‐species data could address single‐study limitations, but data scarcity remains a barrier.

After the Fire, Hope Springs Eternal: Movements and Body Condition of Hermann's Tortoises in a Devastated Landscape

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Rapid assessment of the delayed impacts of fires on endangered species is essential for accurately guiding conservation efforts. After the fire, surviving Hermann's tortoises (Testudo hermanni) showed only minor behavior alterations, and burnt habitats continued to provide them with essential resources.

Multi‐Spectral Gaussian Splatting with Neural Color Representation

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [KKLD23] has transformed novel‐view synthesis from RGB images, yet remains restricted to the visible spectrum. Many applications, including agricultural monitoring, rely on multi‐spectral imaging, where spectral camera alignment and scalability pose major challenges.

Impact of climate on the migration phenology of the endangered Little Bustard in Spain

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
The phenology of animals is closely tied to seasonal climatic patterns so, by altering temperature and precipitation regimes, climate change disrupts the phenological cycles of species. More specifically, the influence of rising temperatures on the phenology of bird migration has been long studied.

Taxonomic and functional patterns of arthropod succession after glacier retreat in the Dolomite Alps

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Arthropod succession after glacier retreat varied among species and forelands in the Dolomites Alps, with community composition shaped by glacier identity, time since deglaciation and local environmental conditions. Functional composition shifted from small, highly dispersive pioneer species to larger, less dispersive taxa, reflecting increasing ...
