Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.We demonstrate that high‐resolution multispectral imagery combined with machine learning can accurately predict key biocrust functional indicators, particularly the UV‐protective pigment scytonemin, across dryland ecosystems. Using fine‐scale imagery acquired in the Chihuahuan Desert and Colorado Plateau, we identified spectral bands strongly ...

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.Despite its ubiquity, the trucking industry is not well‐understood in social scientific literature. Gathering insight into truckers' worlds is difficult due to the solitary, isolating, and unpredictable nature of the work. An understanding of truckers' work lives and work ideologies is even further limited.
