Citizen science deepens the ecological and climatic dimensions of mosquito surveillance

Ecography, EarlyView.
As mosquito‐borne diseases continue to expand worldwide, integrating citizen science into vector surveillance presents untapped potential. This study compares ecological models of Aedes albopictus, an invasive mosquito and global vector of dengue and other arboviruses, in Spain (2020–2022), using two contrasting data sources: traditional traps and ...

Constructing Policy (In)coherence in Germany's Energy Transition and Impacts on (In)equality

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Policy coherence is widely regarded as essential for achieving sustainable development, climate targets, and reducing inequality, as reflected in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Recent scholarship has moved beyond technocratic approaches, drawing on comparative politics, particularly the “3 I's” of ideas, interests, and ...

Aridity thresholds Reveal transitions in dominant drivers of partitioned Water–Carbon coupling across Central Asian drylands

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Intensifying global aridification is reshaping the water–carbon balance in dryland ecosystems, yet when and how this coupling reaches critical thresholds remains poorly understood—posing major uncertainties for predicting ecosystem resilience under ...

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance

Environmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

Spatio‐Temporal Dual‐Encoder Transformer for Short‐Term Regional Wind Power Forecasting

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ST‐DualFormer separates temporal and spatial encoding to model complex dependencies in regional wind power forecasting. The fused dual‐stream representation enables accurate short‐term regional forecasts from multi‐farm meteorological and historical power data. The method achieved 5.25% nMAE and 7.53% nRMSE for three‐day‐ahead forecasting on real‐world

Graph Neural Network‐Based Prediction of Building Energy Consumption

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A graph neural network that encodes a multi‐zone building as a graph accurately predicts hourly cooling and heating loads across three distinct climates, outperforming Random Forest and XGBoost baselines and serving as a fast surrogate to EnergyPlus simulations for scalable building energy management.

A Feature-Optimized Deep Learning Framework for Mapping and Spatial Characterization of Tea Plantations in Complex Mountain Landscapes

Remote Sensing
The unchecked expansion of tea plantations onto steep, forest-adjacent slopes in subtropical mountains engenders a conflict between agricultural productivity and ecosystem integrity, particularly by exacerbating habitat fragmentation and soil erosion ...

Monolithic Framework to Simulate Fluid‐Structure Interaction Problems Using Geometric Volume‐of‐Fluid Method

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional fluid‐structure interaction (FSI) framework is developed using the geometric volume‐of‐fluid (VOF) interface capturing method and applied to assess largescale turbulent FSI interactions. The monolithic FSI framework is extensively validated, and despite the discontinuities across the interface, the FSI framework delivers stable and ...

Analysing the Drivers of Cropland Footprint in Leading Agricultural Nations: Evidence From MMQR Approach

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change represents the biggest current challenge for us and for future generations. Its impact on agriculture is undeniable, considering the food security goal. Thus, the cropland footprint has been distinguished as a comprehensive index for assessing the impact of environmental changes in agricultural areas determined by the increased ...
