Founder Effects, Density, and Droughts Alter the Demographic Responses in Insular Elephant Populations

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
The management of insular elephant populations is being compromised, thereby affecting the natural ecological processes that may regulate their numbers. Here, we illustrate demographic responses in two case studies from South Africa by reflecting on the historical legacy of elephant population establishment and how a lack of dispersal may hinder ...

The Form of Agency

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Philosophers often think agency is essentially connected with rationality, intention, or control. However, Minimalists argue that agency is just the power to cause a change; acids and boulders are agents too. Many philosophers treat Minimalism as a wild outlier, assuming its falsity without argument.

A novel method based on high‐resolution imaging spectroscopy to predict fine‐root traits and the economics space of fresh tree roots

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Maps of the estimated root nitrogen concentration in the < 0.5‐mm‐diameter classes of 20 woody species based on the imaging spectroscopy using the shortwave infrared spectral region. Summary Tree fine‐root morphological, anatomical, and chemical traits are important to reflect belowground resource acquisition strategies to support tree growth, but ...

From Dome to Disease: The Respiratory Toxicity of Volcanic Cristobalite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Exposure to fine-grained volcanic ash can potentially cause acute and chronic respiratory disease. The toxicity of ash is likely to vary depending on the type and style of eruption; eruptions at dome-forming volcanoes, in particular, can produce ash ...

La Yeguada volcanic complex in the Republic of Panama: an assessment of the geologic hazards using 40ar/39ar geochronology

open access: yesRevista Geológica de América Central, 2013
: La Yeguada volcanic complex is one of three Quaternary volcanic centers in Panama. To assess potential geologic hazards, new samples were analyzed using argon analysis (40Ar/39Ar ), and obtained the following: the most recent eruption occurred ...

Post‐Eruption Tropical Cyclone Genesis Potential Change Over the Western North Pacific Modulated by Initial Oceanic Conditions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
How tropical cyclone (TC) frequency may change following volcanic eruptions remains debated, owing to limited contemporary eruption samples. Using last‐millennium multi‐member simulations with CESM, we show that post‐eruption TC genesis potential over ...

Fault‐Controlled Permeability: A Key Parameter in Geothermal Electricity Production Assessment

open access: yesTerra Nova, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geothermal energy is central to the global green energy transition, but its development has long focused on regions with positive thermal anomalies. Through a semi‐quantitative global‐scale review and spatial analysis of 361 geothermal sites, we show that 56.2% of global geothermal electricity production occurs in regions with thermal ...
