Using Catch Data to Estimate Changes in Global Commercial Abalone Abundance

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Changes in global wild capture production of abalone are explored to infer potential changes in biological stocks. The study found that 77% (or 10 out of the 13) of the countries that reportedly caught abalone in the wild have experienced declines in catches between 1980 and 2023, and on aggregate catch declined by almost 83% between 1980 and ...

Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage: Groundwater for Efficient Data Center Cooling in the United States

Groundwater, EarlyView.
As the demand for data centers continues to rise exponentially, there is an urgent need to explore sustainable and efficient alternatives to conventional cooling systems for data centers. This article explores aquifer thermal energy storage as a technically viable and underutilized solution for data center cooling in the United States.

In Defence of Walkability as a Crime Prevention Strategy

The Howard Journal of Crime and Justice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT New Urbanist ideas promoting walkability have many benefits. But they are criticised by proponents of crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED), who blame street connectivity for facilitating target recognition, providing access and escape routes and weakening informal surveillance.

Linking eBird data with high spatiotemporal remote sensing products to estimate occupancy of bird populations across the island of Ireland

Ibis, EarlyView.
The vast increase in biodiversity data generated through citizen science initiatives, alongside a growing suite of remote sensing products and advanced modelling tools, has opened new avenues for rapidly, accurately and efficiently monitoring species trends to inform conservation, management and policy.

Dragonfly functional connectivity responses are dynamic relative to drought

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
During drought, dragonfly species richness decreases. Yet, dragonfly assemblages show a higher propensity for dispersal during drought. Dispersal pathways vary among the wet and dry periods, and relative to temporal changes in the landscape. While some dragonfly species can traverse plantation compartments, conservation corridors facilitate functional ...
