Detecting Plateau Zokor (Eospalax baileyi) Mounds in UAV Imagery of Alpine Meadows Using Deep Learning Algorithms

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We developed PZM‐YOLO to automatically detect plateau zokor mounds in UAV imagery of alpine meadows. The model achieved reliable detection of small and densely distributed mounds under complex backgrounds, outperforming the baseline YOLOv5s. This framework supports mound counting, mound position, rodent impact assessment, and grassland restoration ...

Development and Evaluation of a Low‐Cost, Semi‐Automated Camera Trap for Surveying Bumble Bee Communities

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera traps are emerging as a useful tool for noninvasive insect monitoring; however, it remains unclear how to lure diurnal insects to traps, how to detect them upon arrival, and how camera‐based methods compare to conventional sampling. We developed a low‐cost, open‐source camera trap to monitor wild bumble bees in agricultural fields. We found that

Bridging the Gap Between Socio‐Political and Community Acceptance of Wind Energy: Policy Insights for Sustainable Energy Development

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wind energy plays an important role in achieving energy transition and sustainable development goals, yet disparities between socio‐political and community acceptance continue to hinder project implementation. Understanding this gap is essential for designing more socially responsive wind energy policies.

Security Shaping Sustainability: The Difference Between Securitized and Community‐Based Conservation in Benin

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As global conservation efforts intensify, balancing environmental protection with social sustainability has become increasingly urgent. This study employs a comparative case study approach to examine two natural resource management interventions in northern Benin: one led by African Parks in an insecure zone, and another by TMG Research in a ...

Can Environmental Markets Pay for More Sustainable Farm Dams? A Cost–Benefit Analysis

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farm dams are widespread artificial waterbodies that play a critical role in agricultural water security. Enhancing these systems through sustainable interventions such as fencing, hardened access points, and revegetation can improve water quality and deliver carbon and biodiversity co‐benefits.
