Electrocution of raptors at power lines in Central Kazakhstan [PDF]
Along three transects of medium voltage power lines in the steppe of Central Kazakhstan, surveys for bird casualties were carried out in summer 2006 in order to estimate the quantitative and qualitative impact of power lines on bird mortality in this ...

Made in the shade: Leaf responses of native wildflowers to single‐axis photovoltaic solar energy
As solar energy expands globally, balancing renewable power generation with biodiversity and ecosystem health has become an urgent challenge. This study investigated how native wildflowers respond at leaf level to the unique microclimates created by rotating solar panels in California's Central Valley.

The abundance of herbaceous vegetation in grassy ecosystems—which cover >25% of the world's land surface—is highly variable and impacts key ecological processes including carbon sequestration and support for grazing wildlife and livestock. Here, we present a method for using high‐resolution, UAV‐borne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) to estimate ...

Surface roughness measurements using UAV LiDAR and analysis of uncertainty factors
Abstract Surface root mean square height (SRMSH) is a key parameter characterizing surface roughness; it reflects soil hydrological properties and influences related physical processes. LiDAR offers an effective means for measuring SRMSH over large areas, yet the method involves several uncertainty factors that require further investigation.

ABSTRACT The raindrop size distribution (DSD) plays an essential role in understanding rain attenuation effects at extremely high frequencies (EHFs). Over 1 year of DSD measurements was taken at different Köppen–Geiger climate classifications within the United States. Optical disdrometers from Thies Clima were used to measure both the size and velocity

Forgoing Nuclear: Nuclear Power Plant Closures and Carbon Emissions in the United States
ABSTRACT This paper examines the effect of nuclear power plant decommissioning on electricity generation and carbon emissions in the United States. Using data on nuclear reactor closures in the United States between 1993 and 2022 and data on state‐level carbon emissions and electricity generation from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), this ...
