The Impacts of Southwest Indian Ocean Tropical Cyclones on Transient Weather in Réunion
International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 11, September 2026.Tropical cyclones which make passage near Réunion can have significant impacts on transient weather relative to long‐term means on the island. In this paper, these impacts were determined by a topological analysis of non‐landfalling tropical cyclones. The relationship between storm intensity, distance, duration, and seasonality plays an equal role in ...

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 9, Page 3122-3144, September 2026.Abstract The aurora borealis (northern lights) is an abiotic natural phenomenon that contributes to human well‐being. There is currently a significant research gap in primary qualitative valuation of the aurora's links to people. This exploratory qualitative study applies the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES ...

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 9068-9086, September 2026.We developed an invasion risk index framework that integrates socioeconomic and environmental data using an entropy‐weighting method. The case study highlights the need for region‐specific biosecurity measures for Chilo suppressalis. Abstract BACKGROUND Biological invasion risk is a multifaceted concept that, according to the Food and Agriculture ...

Flexible specification of directional spatial processes for eigenvector maps
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 9, Page 2729-2741, September 2026.Abstract Understanding spatial structure is crucial when analysing species distributions, biodiversity and community dynamics. Spatial analysis using eigenvector maps provides a general framework for capturing spatial patterns in ecological data. Among these methods, asymmetric eigenvector maps (AEM) are particularly useful for capturing asymmetric ...

When to regulate airports: A simple rule [PDF]
Landing fees at airports are regulated almost all over the world since airports are assumed to abuse their market power. We find that monopolistic airports have an incentive to restrain landing fees when they generate additional non-aviation revenues and
