This study utilizes global Wikipedia page views across ten languages to demonstrate that, while threatened vascular plants generally receive fewer views overall, they garner significantly higher attention than non-threatened species when controlling for geographic range size and documented human use, indicating heightened local awareness of at-risk flora.
This study utilized EDXRF analysis to reveal significant heavy metal contamination, particularly of copper, zinc, and lead, in soils surrounding informal street garages across Dar es Salaam's Ilala, Temeke, and Kinondoni districts, highlighting localized hotspots and the urgent need for improved waste management and monitoring.
This study demonstrates that the Anelastic Convective Entity (ACE) model effectively captures key nonlocal pressure-mediated effects and adaptive inflow mechanisms driving elevated convection initiation, suggesting that replacing traditional parcel-based parameterizations with such time-dependent representations could significantly improve the simulation of convection in global climate models.
Based on high-resolution radiosonde data from the 2025 austral summer, this study demonstrates that moisture-driven processes and phase changes during Antarctic moisture-intrusion regimes substantially enhance turbulence and vertical mixing, revealing that neglecting these moist thermodynamics leads to a systematic underestimation of atmospheric instability over the Antarctic Peninsula.
By dating marine terraces in southern Calabria to approximately 119 ka, this study reveals that rapid, ongoing uplift rates exceeding 12 mm/yr are driven by an active tear in the Ionian slab, significantly impacting seismic hazard assessments in the region.
This study demonstrates that while nontoxic levels of textile microfibers and tire wear particles do not significantly alter the 96-hour lethal concentration of bifenthrin in estuarine grass shrimp, they differentially influence toxicity onset and induce distinct sublethal effects, such as gill clogging and hyperactivity, which may increase predation risk during initial runoff events.
This study assesses Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) practices along the River Ona catchment in Ibadan, Nigeria, finding that while socioeconomic factors influence practices by 31.8%, overall WASH conditions are poor and water quality is significantly deteriorated by anthropogenic activities, necessitating improved water management policies.
This study analyzes residential data from 2006 to 2022 in the Metropolitan City of Turin to reveal that rising temperatures significantly drive outmigration, particularly in lowland areas compared to mountainous regions, highlighting the need for altitude-specific adaptation strategies in the Global North.
This paper proposes a novel magma generation mechanism for the northern South China Sea's Ocean–Continent Transition, suggesting that atmospheric neutrinos induce MSW resonance in deep seawater, which triggers radiogenic heating and crustal melting through inertial coupling, thereby explaining regional magmatic diversity and tectonic evolution.
This paper introduces ROUGE, a new socio-economic disaster impact database for the Global South that leverages Large Language Models to extract detailed, non-monetary data from International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies reports, thereby addressing existing gaps in geographic coverage and data bias.
