Macroecological relationships of ant diversity with increasing aridity in Australian tropical savannas: contrasting responses of epigaeic and hypogaeic assemblages

Ecography, EarlyView.
Studies using climatic gradients play a key role in our understanding of the importance of rainfall and temperature as factors regulating species diversity and distribution, and thus of likely responses to climate change. However, such studies currently consider above‐ground species only, ignoring the diverse hypogaeic (subterranean) invertebrate fauna.

The 2025 Kamchatka Earthquake and Tsunami: Cascading Impacts and Risks to Japan

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On July 29th, 2025, a large earthquake (Mw 8.8) occurred near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This event caused a tsunami that reached Japan's Pacific coast, even though the source was far away. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of earthquakes and tsunamis and discuss how they relate to the recurrence possibility and risk in Japan.

Comparative Assessment and Benchmarking of Metaheuristic Algorithms for Dynamic Photovoltaic Array Reconfiguration Under Diverse Shading Environments

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The solar photovoltaic (PV) installations, which are essential for renewable energy systems, are vulnerable to partial shading, resulting in considerable power losses and operational inefficiencies. The dynamic reconfiguration of PV arrays has become an effective strategy to mitigate these effects by adaptively modifying the array topology to ...

Hidden decay of live trees in a tropical rain forest

Ecology
AbstractThe trunks of forest trees store massive amounts of carbon, but fungi actively and invisibly decay wood inside even seemingly healthy trees. Wood‐decay fungi are responsible for the loss of stored carbon in living trees, and they make trees susceptible to snapping and uprooting in storms.

Feasibility of Wind‐Powered Green Hydrogen Production via a Hybrid Graph Neural Network‐Transformer Forecasting Model

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate long‐term wind speed forecasting is pivotal for the strategic planning of renewable energy infrastructure, particularly for assessing the techno‐economic feasibility of wind‐powered green hydrogen facilities. However, capturing the complex spatiotemporal dependencies in climate data remains a significant challenge. This study proposes

A Comprehensive Review of AI‐Powered Energy Systems

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in developing next‐generation energy systems is getting more day by day. Therefore, incorporating AI enables real‐time decision‐making and advanced grid management, which are essential for optimizing the use of intermittent renewable sources like wind and solar power.

The effect of agricultural management on seed rain and seed banks during regeneration in Brazil’s Cerrado-Caatinga ecotone

Rodriguésia
Seed rain and seed banks are mechanisms for the entry of propagules that assist in the regeneration of agricultural areas. We hypothesized that the seed rain and seed banks of managed areas (10 and 25 years old) - when compared to non-managed areas ...

Aftasten/Tantear: A sensorial, coalitional wayfinding among Muslim runners

Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muslim recreational runners in Muslim‐minority settings that take up running as their preferred form of leisure indicate that they feel they have to navigate a sense of exclusion when running outdoors. This article explores the process of exploration and sensing in public, represented by the Dutch verb aftasten, to investigate the way Muslim ...

Legacy effects of redlining on the distribution of greenspaces in US cities

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
We investigated how a discriminatory housing policy—redlining—has shaped the spatial patterns and configurations of greenspaces throughout 177 cities in the contiguous US. Housing segregation has been a long‐term development practice that has sequestered communities of color to areas with elevated environmental and public health risks.
