Improved Cerrado Wetland Mapping Through Seasonal Moisture Metrics, Terrain Information and Semantic Segmentation

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Brazil's Cerrado valley wetlands—swamp savanna and gallery forest—are highly important for the biome's water cycle and carbon storage and are susceptible to degradation from the impacts of land use expansion and the climate crisis. In support of their detailed monitoring and assessment, we developed and tested a transferable mapping approach that ...

Soil erosion responses to climate change in a tropical monsoon‐dominated river basin ‐ A geospatial perspective

open access: yesRiver, EarlyView.
Climate change is projected to intensify soil erosion in the Chalakkudy River Basin, with bare lands and steep uplands emerging as the most vulnerable hotspots under high‐emission scenarios. Forested areas showed greater resistance to soil erosion, highlighting the importance of targeted soil conservation for sustainable watershed management in ...

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Prohibited Plants: Converging Sustainability Transitions and Local Development in ‘Left‐Behind Places’

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between sustainability transitions and local development through the case of Colombia's medicinal cannabis industry. It highlights how neglecting place‐specific needs and development expectations can hinder equitable transitions and reinforce existing socio‐economic disparities.

Linking Pulse‐Duration‐Controlled Laser Nanostructuring to Oxygen Evolution Kinetics in Fe‐enriched NiOx Electrodes

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Pulse‐duration‐controlled ultra‐short laser processing is shown to directly create binder‐free Fe‐enriched NiOx electrodes with tunable porosity, active‐site density, and oxygen‐evolution kinetics. Shorter pulses generate defect‐rich nanostructures that accelerate charge transfer, promote highly active NiFeOOH formation, and deliver durable alkaline ...

Concrete in architecture: Redefining form, space, function, and insights from bibliometric analysis

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Concrete has become a cornerstone in architectural and engineering innovation, as it seamlessly integrates structural performance with artistic expression. Its evolution from ancient opus caementicium to contemporary ultra‐high‐performance concrete illustrates its adaptability to the change in technological, environmental, and design paradigms.

Terraced vineyards - architectural responses

open access: yes4D
The very first vine-growing landscapes were modelled in the primary era, some 260 million years ago. The vineyards became established preferentially on embankments, the edges of faults, and pebbly plains, as well as volcanic soil, millions of years ...

Regional conservation planning tool: A spreadsheet model to support spatial prioritization and resource allocation decisions

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract Prioritization is a central component of natural resource management because conservation needs routinely exceed available resources. Waterfowl and wetland conservation programs in North America are at the forefront of landscape‐scale prioritization and transboundary management decisions due to the migratory nature of ducks, geese, and swans ...

Ionothermal Synthesis of Cu(Sb2Se3)[AlCl4] and Cu5(Bi2Se3)6[AlCl4]5 : Monolayers of Sb2Se3 and Bi2Se3 Stabilized by Cu[AlCl4]

open access: yesZeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, EarlyView.
Ionothermal synthesis in Lewis‐acidic ionic liquids (ILs) yields two new low‐dimensional pnictogen–selenide networks cocrystallized with Cu[AlCl4]. Both are narrow‐gap semiconductors that exhibit strong absorption throughout the visible range. Topochemical AlCl3 extraction triggers partial delamination, pointing to a viable route toward 2D derivatives.

Cuttings, Combings, Fettlings and Flock: Gender and Australian Wool ‘Waste’, 1900–1950

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Australia's wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century, the wool processing and clothes manufacturing industries generated waste – products like cuttings, combings, fettlings and flock. Salvaged and then sold to waste merchants, these and other materials had a second life.
