Lacking data? No worries! How synthetic images can alleviate image scarcity in wildlife surveys: A case study with muskox (Ovibos moschatus)

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study investigates the integration of synthetic imagery, created with diffusion‐based models, to supplement limited training data and improve muskox (Ovibos moschatus) detection in zero‐shot (ZS) and few‐shot (FS) settings. ZS models detected more than 80% of muskoxen in real images, confirming the potential of synthetic data as a substitute for ...

Classification of tree species and standing dead trees in Boreal forests using UAV‐based RGB, multispectral, and LiDAR point clouds

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...

Advanced Fade Mitigation Techniques for Q/V Band SATCOM Systems

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adaptive fade mitigation techniques, such as smart gateway diversity (SGD), are essential in addressing atmospheric fading affecting the operation of high throughput and very high throughput satellite systems at Ka‐band and beyond. Specifically, the Q/V‐band, offering up to 5 GHz of available spectrum, is very attractive for future high data ...

Can Happiness Be Sustainable? Monitoring Global Consumption Footprints From 2015 to 2024

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how happiness relates to resource consumption requires considering not only domestic environmental impacts but also the broader transnational effects embedded in global trade. To address this gap, this study introduces the Consumption Footprint–Happiness Ratio (CHR), a visual analytic metric that captures the intensity of ...

Mapping School Accessibility in Africa: High‐Resolution Spatial Analysis Uncovers Inequalities in Education Access

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Education is a cornerstone of sustainable development, yet large disparities in access persist across and within countries—particularly in Africa, where millions remain underserved. Among several factors influencing educational participation, physical accessibility to schools (in terms of travel time) is not comprehensively understood ...

Fragmentation Across Scales, Geography, and Climate Challenges in European Urban Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Research: A Bibliometric and Systematic Review

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT European urban climate change research lacks integration across scales, geography, and climate challenges, despite Europe's coordinated policy frameworks. Through a hybrid bibliometric and systematic review of 1528 studies (2010–2025) using Cortext Manager and PRISMA 2020 guidelines, this study maps the conceptual patterns, knowledge gaps, and

TC‐GEN: Data‐Driven Tropical Cyclone Downscaling Using Machine Learning‐Based High‐Resolution Weather Model

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Synthetic downscaling of tropical cyclones (TCs) is critically important to estimate the long‐term hazard of rare high‐impact storm events. Existing downscaling approaches rely on statistical or statistical‐deterministic models that are capable of ...

Unpacking Climate Literacy in Science Education: What Explains Students' Willingness to Engage in Climate Action?

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Due to the far‐reaching and life‐threatening consequences of climate change, science education is becoming increasingly important for preparing students to become climate literate citizens. Climate literacy, which encompasses knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to climate change, can provide a strong foundation for informed climate action.
