Spatiotemporal green water dynamics and their responses to variations of climatic and underlying surface factors: A case study in the Sanjiang Plain, China
(Elsevier, 2023)
The Sanjiang Plain (SJP), located at the confluence reaches of the Heilong, Songhua, and Wusuli Rivers in Northeast China. his study aimed to quantify the effects of varying climate and land-use/land-cover (LULC) dynamics ...
Remote sensing for water resources and environmental management
(MDPI, 2023)
In line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6, the main goal
of the Special Issue on “Remote sensing for water resources and environmental management” was
to solicit papers from a diverse range of ...
Decorum in nature: Impala (Aepyceros melampus melampus) dung middens follow spatial point patterns in Mukuvisi Woodland, Zimbabwe
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)
Guided by the Optimum Foraging Theory,the Avoidance Concept, and assuming that the impala Aepyceros melampus melampus defecate purposevely at dung middens, we hypothe-sized that the impala’s dung midden locations do not: ...
From conflict to collaboration: Atewa forest governance
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)
The problem of forest degradation and loss has become theconcern of many countries. To address this challenge, somecollaborate in sustainable forest management. The mostsuccessful outcomes, however, are observed where ...
Defining regional and local sediment sources in the ancestral Colorado River system: A heavy mineral study of a mixed provenance unit in the Fish creek-vallecito basin, Southern California
(MDPI, 2023)
The Colorado River has flowed across the dextral strike-slip plate boundary between the
North American and Pacific plates since the latest Miocene or earliest Pliocene. The Fish Creek-
Vallecito Basin (FCVB) lies on the ...
Review of in-situ and remote sensing-based indices and their applicability for integrated drought monitoring in South Africa
(MDPI, 2023)
The devastating socioeconomic impacts of recent droughts have intensified the need for
improved drought monitoring in South Africa (SA). This study has shown that not all indices can be
universally applicable at all ...
Understanding climate change effects on the potential distribution of an important pollinator species, Ceratina moerenhouti (Apidae: Ceratinini), in the Eastern Afromontane biodiversity hotspot, Kenya
(Elsevier, 2023)
Monitoring key pollinator taxa such as the genus Ceratina requires precise near real-time predictions to facilitate
better surveillance. The potential habitat suitability of Ceratina moerenhouti was predicted in the Eastern ...
A multi-proxy provenance study of late carboniferous to middle Jurassic sandstones in the Eastern Sverdrup basin and its bearing on arctic palaeogeographic reconstructions
(MDPI, 2023)
A multi-proxy provenance study of Late Carboniferous to Middle Jurassic sandstones
from the eastern Sverdrup Basin was undertaken employing optical petrography and heavy mineral
analysis, chemical analysis of apatite, ...
Identification and delineation of groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs) in the Khakea–Bray transboundaryaquifer region using geospatial techniques
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)
Identifying and delineating groundwater-dependent ecosystems(GDEs) is critical in understanding their location, distribution andgroundwater allocation. However, this information is inadequatelyunderstood due to limited ...
Carbon stock prediction in managed forest ecosystems using Bayesian and frequentist geostatistical techniques and new generation remote sensing metrics
(MDPI, 2023)
The study compares the performance of a hierarchical Bayesian geostatistical methodology
with a frequentist geostatistical approach, specifically, Kriging with External Drift (KED), for
predicting C stock using prediction ...
