Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.A hybrid Fuzzy–SVM framework for real‐time dust detection and thermal mapping in PV panels. ABSTRACT Dust accumulation significantly degrades the energy output of photovoltaic (PV) panels, particularly in arid and semi‐arid regions. While existing studies have separately explored image‐based dust detection, environmental modeling, and machine learning (

Enabling pastoralist management of rangelands to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.Rangelands cover 54% of the global terrestrial area and are threatened by land conversion and degradation, which erodes their global value and weakens the livelihoods of pastoralists who manage them. Sustainable Development Goal Target 15.3 on Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) provides a framework for sustainable rangelands management, but countries ...
