Long‐Term Effects of Low‐Drop Grade Control Structures on Channel Evolution in the Yazoo River Basin

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Channel incision is a widespread problem, especially in river basins that have an extensive history of channel alterations. Because channel incision causes large ecological and economic consequences, the prevention of continued migration of headcuts, defined as a steep change in stream gradient over a short reach, has been the focus of many ...

Efficient Data Assimilation Method for Optimizing Prediction of Flow Field and Sediment Transport in Open Channel

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurately predicting open‐channel flow under complex conditions remains a challenge. This study introduces a novel synergetic self‐adaptive data assimilation (DA) framework, using a proportional‐integral‐derivative (PID) controller to dynamically calibrate the bed roughness parameter ks in a shallow‐water equation model (via the momentum ...

Software to Support Remote Sensing of River Discharge Based on Critical Flow Theory

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Water resource management requires accurate observations of streamflow but standard field methods for measuring river discharge (Q$$ Q $$) can be costly and hazardous for equipment and personnel. Remote sensing has become a viable alternative, but many image‐based techniques require field data for calibration, and depth and velocity can seldom

Gender‐Sensitive Resilience in Kyrgyz Households: Latent Profile and Cross‐Lagged Dynamic Panel Approaches

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resilience is still conceptualised as gender‐neutral in research and policy discussions. However, a gendered resilience framework suggests that gender roles and intra‐household dynamics are intricately linked with household resilience. This manuscript aims to analyse the effect of gender role attitudes on climate change resilience.

Efficient Masked Autoencoder for Birdsong Representation with Applications on Wild Bird Species Classification

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Research on mosquito feeding preferences and the malaria parasites they transmit is essential for understanding the interactions between hosts, vectors, and parasites. In this study, vertebrate hosts were identified in 72 mosquitoes. Most blood meals (58.7%) came from birds, representing 25 species, while 40.0% came from mammals (13 species), and 1.3 ...

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Addressing ecological challenges from a quantum computing perspective

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract With increased access to data and the advent of computers, the use of statistical tools and numerical simulations is becoming commonplace for ecologists. These approaches help improve our understanding of ecological phenomena and their underlying mechanisms in increasingly complex environments.

Exploring the genetic overlap between substance use disorder and educational attainment

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Substance use disorder (SUD) is a polygenic psychiatric condition characterized by persistent drug use despite negative consequences. Several studies support that higher cognitive performance and educational attainment (EA) are associated with a reduced risk for SUD.

From spatial to social competence: The association between spatial ability and prosocial behaviour in childhood

British Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated the nature of the association between spatial ability and prosocial behaviour in middle childhood. We used a general‐population longitudinal survey from the United Kingdom, which allowed us to control for a wide range of area, family and child covariates, including early verbal ability and parenting, in a large sample ...

Childhood emotion reactivity and regulation as predictors of sleep quality: A longitudinal study

British Journal of Developmental Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This longitudinal study examined the predictive role of emotion reactivity and regulation on sleep quality across early to middle childhood. Participants were typically developing Swedish children (N = 116, 49% girls), with reactivity and regulation assessed at ages 3, 6 and 9 years, and sleep quality measured at the age of 9 years.
