Monitoring Groundwater Pumping Using Time‐Lapse Tomography From Ambient Seismic Noise
Abstract Management of water resources will be of critical importance as the effects of climate change accelerate. This implies the need to monitor water resources with high spatial and temporal resolution. One way to meet this need could be passive seismic methods using ambient seismic noise. In this study, we present a novel approach using time‐lapse

Should you use data integration for your distribution model?
This paper explores cases where data integration (the joint modelling of two or more observational datasets) is useful for species distribution models, and also highlights cases where it's actually not useful. This provides the first concrete guidance for deciding whether or not data integration is worth your time.

Global determinants of home range sizes in felids: Evidence of human disturbance impact
This study is the first to demonstrate the influence of anthropogenic factors and species richness in felids on home range size across the entire felid taxon. Felids are a taxon of major interest in conservation biology, and gaining a comprehensive view of their spatial ecology will help derive global conservation recommendations.

A novel generalized spatial mark‐resight model that accounts for group associations
Abstract The number and distribution of animals in space form the basis of many wildlife studies. Yet, reliable estimation of population abundance remains challenging. Generalized spatial mark‐resight (gSMR) models are widely applicable abundance estimators that do not require all individuals be uniquely identifiable.

The Mobility Politics of Hong Kong's High‐Speed Rail
ABSTRACT Human geography scholarship has revealed how powerful and marginalised actors alike may use (im)mobility to exert authority, and it has recognised the ability of infrastructure to either consolidate or undermine state power. This paper uses new evidence to demonstrate how Hong Kong's express rail link (XRL) to Mainland China was implicated in ...

Racialized Labour in the Colonial Food Regime: The Whitening of England's Farmworkers
ABSTRACT The crystallization of a colonial food regime in the 1870s centred around Britain is key to historical accounts of agrarian political economy. Yet such accounts have neglected the role of the agrarian proletariat in shaping this regime from below and its basis in racialized hierarchy.

The contemporary interaction of climate and disturbance drives vegetation composition and species distribution shifts, making their respective roles difficult to disentangle. This study describes the long‐term ruderal plant species distributions along the ‘Rallarvägen' in Abisko, subarctic Sweden.

Monitoring Near‐Surface Changes Using Anthropogenic Seismic Vibrations
Abstract The abundance of anthropogenic seismic noise provides a valuable resource for monitoring dynamic subsurface property changes. We utilize railway and wind turbine‐induced vibrations recorded by a geophone array to estimate surface wave attenuation and velocity in the underlying glacial deposits of Illinois.
