Behaviour Identification in Farmed Red Deer (Cervus elaphus) Using Wearable Activity Collars
Wearable sensors such as accelerometers have shown promise in identifying a range of behaviours in ruminant livestock for welfare and production purposes. The research and production of wearables have primarily focused on delivering to the dairy and beef cattle industries.

Evaluating Fire Indices for Fire Ignition and Spread Rate in the Western United States
Abstract Wildfires are complex events that are challenging to model. Researchers and land managers often rely on fire indices as a proxy of fire risk in operational forecasts and future projections. However, in the scientific literature, the choice of which fire index to use is often arbitrary and not tied to specific fire behaviors. Here, we provide a

Abstract Landslides pose a serious and ongoing threat to both human lives and infrastructure worldwide; therefore, it is of interest to predict where and when landslides are likely to occur. Advances in machine learning techniques have spurred numerous studies aimed at estimating relative landslide propensity, but are limited to spatial (as opposed to ...

Riverine Nitrate Fate and Transport in the Great Lakes Basin Using the Community Land Model
Abstract Agriculture and urbanization have profoundly altered the terrestrial nitrogen cycle, leading to widespread water quality degradation. Nitrogen leached from managed soils is transported and transformed through river networks, influencing downstream nutrient dynamics and ecosystem functioning.

Abstract Watershed sediment production is expected to increase in a warmer future with more extreme rain, with cascading effects throughout drainage and sediment‐transport networks. This study investigated landscape‐scale sediment movement in the eastern San Francisco Bay area, California, USA, during the extreme 2016–2017 wet season that brought major

Terrestrial Poor Ecohealth Areas Continue to Expand Across Asian Drylands
Abstract The 7th Rio declaration principle emphasizes global collaboration to protect and restore ecosystem health. While dryland ecosystem health (EH) remains critical to global sustainability agendas, its long‐term regional dynamics remain poorly constrained across the Asian drylands (AD), where land management decisions increasingly shape ecological

Hot Droughts Increase the Likelihood and Impacts of Abrupt Drought‐to‐Pluvial Transitions Worldwide
Abstract Hot droughts are intensifying under anthropogenic warming, yet whether extreme heat systematically alters the triggering of abrupt drought‐to‐pluvial transitions and their downstream impacts remains poorly understood. Here, we identify global drought‐to‐pluvial abrupt transition (DPAT) events and isolate the influence of antecedent thermal ...
