Fragmentation Across Scales, Geography, and Climate Challenges in European Urban Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation Research: A Bibliometric and Systematic Review

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT European urban climate change research lacks integration across scales, geography, and climate challenges, despite Europe's coordinated policy frameworks. Through a hybrid bibliometric and systematic review of 1528 studies (2010–2025) using Cortext Manager and PRISMA 2020 guidelines, this study maps the conceptual patterns, knowledge gaps, and

Inflammatory Shift in Chronic Rhinosinusitis Amidst Guangzhou's Urbanization (2000–2018)

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) exhibits temporal and geographic diversity in pathological endotypes with progressive eosinophilic infiltration, while the underlying causes remain unclear. Current pathological endotypes determination relies on mean cell count per high‐power field, requiring accuracy optimization.

Unraveling the impact of dog‐friendly spaces on urban–wildland pumas and other wildlife

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As the most widespread large carnivore on the planet, domestic dogs Canis lupus familiaris can pose a major threat to wildlife, even within protected areas (PAs). Growing human presence in PAs, coupled with increasing pet dog ownership underscores the urgency to understand the influence of dogs on wildlife activity and health.

Extraction and spatiotemporal analysis of impervious surfaces in Chongqing based on enhanced DeepLabv3+

open access: yesScientific Reports
In this study, Sentinel-2 time series satellite remote sensing imagery and an improved CA-DeepLabV3+ semantic segmentation network were utilized to construct a model for extracting urban impervious surfaces. The model was used to extract the distribution

‘Using anuran community diversity and Pseudacris crucifer to predict landscape quality across a land use gradient'

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
As human‐modified landscape and climate changes proliferate, maintaining biodiversity and understanding the function and quality of available habitat is imperative. As anurans (frogs/toads) such as Pseudacris crucifer, can be an indicator species of habitat quality and ecosystem productivity, studying the anuran community in a mixed‐land use region ...

A 10-m resolution impervious surface area map for the greater Mekong subregion from remote sensing images

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
High-resolution and multi-temporal impervious surface area maps are crucial for capturing rapidly developing urbanization patterns. However, the currently available relevant maps for the greater Mekong subregion suffer from coarse resolution and low ...

Impacts of Expanding Impervious Surface on Specific Conductance in Urbanizing Streams [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2019
AbstractLong‐term analysis indicates that progressive salinization of freshwaters is widespread. Although increases are often associated with urbanization, knowledge of chemical dynamics during urbanization is limited and typically drawn from space‐for‐time studies.

Urbanisation and human activities influence the co‐occurrence of red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris and meso‐carnivores in Berlin, Germany

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban expansion is a major driver of habitat fragmentation, shrinking wildlife habitat, and restricting wildlife movements and activity patterns. In this novel environment, species must adapt to the new composition of wildlife communities. For example, red squirrels Sciurus vulgaris are commonly found in urban environments, while their potential ...

An object-based classification approach for mapping "migrant housing" in the mega-urban area of the Pearl River Delta (China)

open access: yes, 2011
Urban areas develop on formal and informal levels. Informal development is often highly dynamic, leading to a lag of spatial information about urban structure types.

Urban bats show dietary flexibility in aquatic arthropod consumption at urban and rural waterbodies

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban waterbodies are critical for biodiversity and provide feeding grounds for insectivorous bats. Yet, how urbanisation affects bats' food choices at urban waterbodies and the role of emergent aquatic arthropods remain poorly understood. We compared the diet of three urban bat species – Vespadelus vulturnus, Chalinolobus gouldii,and Myotis macropus –
