Ecological and Technological Insights to Enhance Rice Production: A Machine Learning Approach for Sustainable Agriculture in Granma, Cuba

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid the quest for sustainable agriculture, this study explores key ecological and technological factors influencing crop production under climate change. We conduct a comprehensive assessment of temperature, biomass, farmer education, renewable energy devices, greenhouse gas emissions and their effects on rice yields in Granma, Cuba, from ...

Model Construction of Rainfall Interception by Maize Canopy

open access: yes应用气象学报, 2020
Rainfall is the main water source of crops. Crops maintain their normal growth and development by absorbing water from the soil. However, the role of rainfall is often overestimated in water resource evaluation and farmland water balance research because the rainfall interception effect of crop canopy is not considered.

Exclusion and Exposure: How Social Inequality and Marginalization Shape Climate Vulnerability and Adaptation in Rural Communities

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change affects all individuals, regardless of wealth, social class, or religious background, though its impacts and adaptation strategies vary. While existing literature examines climate change adaptation based on farming categories, geographic regions, and cropping systems, limited research explores how social class shapes adaptation ...

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Implementing the Simple Biosphere Model (SiB) in a general circulation model: Methodologies and results [PDF]

open access: yes
The Simple Biosphere MOdel (SiB) of Sellers et al., (1986) was designed to simulate the interactions between the Earth's land surface and the atmosphere by treating the vegetation explicitly and relistically, thereby incorporating biophysical controls on

Intercomparison of CL31 and CL51 ceilometers and impact of installation angle on cloud base height measurement agreement

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
Lowest‐layer cloud base height (CBH) measurements obtained between July 2018 and December 2019 from four ceilometers at the Korea Standard Meteorological Observatory were compared to determine how ceilometer installation angle differentially affects CBH measurements.

Monitoring GPS‐collared moose by ground versus drone approaches: efficiency and disturbance effects

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Efficient wildlife management requires precise monitoring methods, for example to estimate population density, reproductive success, and survival. Here, we compared the efficiency of drone (equipped with a RGB camera) and ground approaches to detect and observe GPS‐collared female moose Alces alces and their calves. We also quantified how drone (n = 42)
