A Multiscale Vision Transformer-Based Multimodal GeoAI Model for Mapping Arctic Permafrost Thaw

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Retrogressive Thaw Slumps (RTS) in Arctic regions are distinct permafrost landforms with significant environmental impacts. Mapping these RTS is crucial because their appearance serves as a clear indication of permafrost thaw.

Hemp Cultivation and Crop Diversification: Implications for Ecosystem Services in Kentucky

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the ecosystem benefits of expanding hemp cultivation by assessing its impact on crop diversity. Using scenario‐based simulations and fixed‐effect panel regressions with county‐level data in Kentucky, we find that increased hemp acreage tends to enhance crop diversity, improving water quality and bird diversity.

Built form, urban climate and building energy modelling: case-studies in Rome and Antofagasta

open access: yesJournal of Building Performance Simulation, Taylor & Francis, 2020
The energy performance of urban buildings is affected by multiple climate phenomena such as heat island intensity, wind flow, solar obstructions and infrared radiation exchange in urban canyons, but a modelling procedure to account for all of them in ...

Interactions between extreme climate and urban morphology : Investigating the evolution of extreme wind speeds from mesoscale to microscale

open access: yes, 2020
This paper investigates the interactions between urban morphology indicators and extreme weather variables. In this regard, variations of wind speed and air temperature at the urban microscale are studied for three urban morphologies by means of ...

Farmers' Preferences for Gene Editing Crops and Influencing Factors

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gene editing (GE) is gaining momentum worldwide, but limited data on UK farmers' preferences hinders our understanding of its potential impact amid deregulation debates. Based on a survey of 200 English arable farmers, we employ a Latent Class Analysis and Multinomial Logit regressions to investigate current preferences for GE crops.

Integration of mitigation and adaptation in urban climate change action plans in Europe: A systematic assessment

open access: yesRenewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2020
Cities are major drivers of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions--the sources of anthropocentric climate change, whilst also concentrating people, buildings, and infrastructures and therefore potential risk and impacts of the latter.

Urban heat island mitigation in Singapore: Evaluation using WRF/multilayer urban canopy model and local climate zones

open access: yes, 2021
© 2020 Elsevier B.V. Mitigation and adaption measures must be designed strategically by urban planners, designers, and decision-makers to reduce urban heat island (UHI) related risks. We employed the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to assess
