The security implications of geoengineering:blame,imposed agreement and the security of critical infrastructure [PDF]
, 2014 The prospect of solar geoengineering in response to climate change (on the basis of its supposedly significantly lower cost and/or more rapid impact on global temperature than carbon reduction strategies) raises a number of security concerns that have ...

Geological Journal, EarlyView.This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

Effects of shear on eggs and larvae of striped bass, morone saxatilis, and white perch, M. americana [PDF]
, 1976 Shear stress, generated by water movement, can kill fish eggs and larvae by causing rotation or deformation. Through the use of an experimental apparatus, a series of shear (as dynes/cm2)-mortality equations for fixed time exposures were generated for ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.Abstract The Burren uplands in western Ireland form one of the most extensive and best‐preserved examples of glacio‐karst in Europe. Subsumed by the Irish ice sheet during the Late Pleistocene, granite erratic boulders and in situ silica veins in the limestone bedrock provide a rare opportunity to reconstruct the timing and rate of deglaciation ...

Spatial and temporal variation in survival of female wild turkeys
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We monitored 370 female wild turkeys across North Carolina's 3 ecoregions from 2020‐2022 to understand factors influencing their survival. Female survival varied by ecoregion and behavior state, with the incubation period having the lowest survival rates. None of the land cover variables affected survival.

Comparing autumn duck use of intensely managed wetlands in Michigan using a novel approach
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Camera traps, a relatively novel method for assessing waterfowl use of wetlands, show ducks in southeastern Michigan are influenced by hunting disturbance, vegetation type, season progression, and diel period. Abstract Socioeconomic value derived from duck hunting has contributed to autumn habitat use becoming a particular focus for the natural ...

Lipid correction of hydrogen stable isotope ratios in fish
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Lipids are known to affect stable isotope ratio of organisms, especially δ13C values, and simple arithmetic lipid‐correction procedures have been developed based on the carbon to nitrogen ratio (C : N) that is a proxy for lipid content. Equivalent issues will likely arise with the increasing use of hydrogen isotopes in ecology, but as yet no ...
