Effect of carcass storage condition on searcher efficiency trials for conservation detection dogs

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We investigated the influence of storage condition on bat carcass odor through chemical analysis. Additionally, we tested the detectability of 3 carcass storage conditions through searcher efficiency trials with conservation detection dogs. Only 20% of the chemicals observed were shared across all 4 carcass storage conditions.

Land Use Transformation and Climate Resilience in Smart Cities: Role of ICT in Modern Urban Planning

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern urban planning is experiencing a transition from traditional planning to the integration of information technology, which defines the concept of a “smart city”. The study analyses the evolution of urban planning practices with an emphasis on the role of engineering and architecture in the process of urbanization, the transition to the ...

Evaluating Erosional Stability of Reconstructed Mine Landscapes Using Landform Evolution Models: Parameterisation and Decadal‐Scale Erosion Assessment

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ensuring the long‐term erosional stability of post‐mining landforms remains a major challenge in open‐pit mining. Reconstructed landscapes must support the agreed post‐mining land use, such as cattle grazing in the Hunter region of southeastern Australia, requiring stable pasture and minimal soil loss.

Nitrogen‐Fixing Woody Plants Sequester More Soil Mineral‐Associated Carbon and Lose Less Particulate Carbon Than Herbs Post Vegetation Restoration

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dividing soil organic carbon (SOC) into particulate (POC) and mineral‐associated organic carbon (MAOC) is crucial for understanding the formation, persistence, and functions of soil carbon. However, current understanding of the dynamics of new and old carbon in POC and MAOC following vegetation restoration remains unclear.

A Study on the ZigBee Wireless Communication for IAQ Monitoring of Underground Subway Stations

, 2019
In this paper, the 424MHz ZigBee module, which uses a relatively lower frequency for wireless transmission and reception, is found to have a much higher data transfer rate than that of the 2.4GHz XBee PRO in the presence of obstacles such as subway waiting rooms, platform like stairs, complicated structures, and crowded passengers.

3D effects of seawater on electrical resistivity tomography near shorelines—Challenges and possible solutions inferred from synthetic and field data

Near Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is one of the most widely used geophysical techniques for hydrogeological questions, such as investigating the groundwater transition zone between land and sea. The interpretation of 2D coast‐parallel ERT profiles is challenging because most of the electrical current flows through the highly conductive ...
