Alpine ungulates adjust diel activity to the natural return of wolves amid anthropogenic pressures

Ecography, EarlyView.
As wolves recolonise their historical range across Europe, ungulates face predation once more – but in landscapes profoundly altered by human activity. This shift raises crucial questions about their capacity to express adaptive antipredator behaviours.

Species distribution modeling with expert elicitation and Bayesian calibration

Ecography, EarlyView.
Species distribution models (SDM) are key tools in ecology, conservation, and natural resources management. They are traditionally trained with data on direct species observations. However, if collecting species data is difficult or expensive, complementary information sources on species distributions are needed.

Integrating Remote Sensing and Machine Learning for Enhanced Surface Urban Heat Island Analysis and Its Impact on Building Energy Demand

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Satellite (MODIS) mapping links Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity to city‐scale energy demand—higher daytime cooling demand and altered nighttime heating demand—supporting targeted mitigation and planning. ABSTRACT This study examines the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect on building energy consumption in Tehran from 1998 to 2024, utilizing MODIS

Movement decisions reflect compromised statewide connectivity for mountain lions in California

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Human‐induced habitat fragmentation threatens connectivity for populations of wide‐ranging species by compromising long‐distance dispersal. We evaluated movement‐based resource selection of dispersing mountain lions (Puma concolor) to identify specific landscape conditions influencing movement decisions and connectivity between populations across the ...

Algal Blooms in Lakes Increase After Wildfire Smoke Events in the Contiguous United States

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
Temporary pulses of surface chlorophyll‐a are identified following wildfire smoke events in lakes and reservoirs across the United States. ABSTRACT Area burned by wildfire has increased in the contiguous United States and in many places globally in recent years, impacting communities and ecosystems nearby and even far downwind of fires. We examined the

Mesoscale Circulation and Coral Community Disturbance at Isolated Reefs

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
The Loop Current is a seasonally and interannually dynamic mesoscale oceanographic feature in the Gulf of Mexico that strongly influences connectivity and environmental conditions across the region. We investigated the influence of Loop Current variability on coral reef disturbances at isolated reefs in the northwest Gulf, including coral disease ...
