Agrobiodiversity dynamics in traditional socioecological systems: An agent‐based model approach on the role of kinship systems and variety transmission

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Context: Agrobiodiversity depends on multiple interconnected socioecological processes. The loss of crop diversity represents a critical challenge for global food security and for the resilience and adaptation of small‐scale farming communities to climate change.

OPTIMAL TRANSBOUNDARY WATER DIVERSION: THE CASE OF THE SENEGAL RIVER [PDF]

This paper ascertains the costs and benefits of diverting water from the Senegal River. Two scenarios are compared to the status quo of inaction: the social planner and the competitive scenarios. Although these two scenarios yield positive present values

Fonio (Digitaria exilis and Digitaria iburua) in Nigeria: Regional cultivation patterns, landrace diversity, and farmer knowledge for conserving a climate‐resilient indigenous cereal

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fonio (Digitaria exilis and Digitaria iburua) cereals are valued for their drought resilience, adaptability to poor soils, and cultural importance. In Nigeria, where both species are cultivated, fonio has declined due to labor‐intensive processing, lower yields, and changing livelihood choices. By documenting 21 landraces (15 D. exilis and 6 D. iburua),

Nowcasting convective cores using deep learning

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Key findings: •$$ \bullet $$ Network for Nowcasting Convective Cores (NetNCC) has considerable potential for convective storm nowcasting and the development of early warning systems for extreme rainfall. •$$ \bullet $$ Skilful nowcasts of convective cores are obtained at fine spatial resolutions (<30km$$ <30\kern0.15em \mathrm{km} $$) for up to 2 hr ...

Object‐based deep learning for probabilistic convective‐core nowcasting from satellite data

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Convective cores detected from Meteosat infrared imagery are represented as compact physical objects to generate probabilistic nowcasts up to 6 h ahead. A spatio‐temporal transformer models interactions among evolving core populations and produces gridded probability forecasts across the western Sahel.

Urban Communities, Housing Commons, and Real Estate Investment: Revisiting Housing Cooperative Development in Senegal Since the Beavers Experiment

International Journal of the Commons
Since the 2000s, the renewed interest in housing cooperatives in the Global South has ascribed to them a number of virtues: a successful mechanism for mutual aid and escape from poverty, a “third way” in the face of the failures of public production and ...

Does Economic Growth Drive Equitable Water and Sanitation Access? Assessing Inequality Reduction Across 64 Nations

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines whether economic growth reduces inequalities in access to water and sanitation across 64 countries over an average period of 13.5 years. Drawing on disaggregated data by income quintiles and rural–urban location, and employing ordinary least squares (OLS), two‐stage least squares (2SLS), and Seemingly Unrelated Regression
