In southern permafrost peatlands, soil depth exerts a stronger control on soil organic carbon stabilization than vegetation type, primarily by regulating nutrient and iron oxide availability that drive the vertical differentiation of carbon fractions.
This study assesses the carbon footprint of electricity consumption at Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gorakhpur University from 2019 to 2024, revealing significant seasonal and pandemic-driven fluctuations in emissions while highlighting the critical role of solar energy and energy management strategies in achieving sustainable campus development.
This study utilizes a process-based climate feedback analysis to demonstrate that lower greenhouse gas concentrations in PMIP4 simulations suppress polar amplification by weakening key positive feedbacks, thereby resolving intergenerational discrepancies with proxy data and supporting a cooler mid-Holocene temperature relative to preindustrial times.
This study utilizes camera-trap distance sampling to demonstrate that the Lama Classified Forest in Benin remains a critical stronghold for a functionally diverse mammal assemblage, while revealing that species distribution is shaped by a complex trade-off between avoiding human settlements and exploiting anthropogenic resources near forest edges.
This study prioritizes sub-basins within Algeria's Wadi Ouahrane watershed for soil erosion risk by integrating morphometric analysis with an Entropy-WASPAS multi-criteria decision-making framework, identifying six high-risk areas to guide sustainable conservation planning.
This study utilizes high-resolution ground radar and satellite observations to characterize the lifecycle, 3-D structure, and environmental controls of 93 mesoscale convective systems over the Indian Monsoon Core Zone, revealing that while deep convection drives rainfall intensity, expanding stratiform regions dominate total seasonal rainfall and are favored by specific mid-level moisture and wind shear conditions.
This study assesses local communities' perceptions across three agroecological zones in Senegal, revealing that while vegetation is primarily valued for provisioning services like food, fodder, and medicine—with *Icacina senegalensis* being a key medicinal species—people recognize a general decline in vegetation abundance and propose reforestation and protection as essential management strategies.
Using updated data on the distribution, size, and optical properties of airborne microplastics, this study revises their direct radiative forcing to a positive value of approximately +42.1 mW m⁻², indicating that microplastics are likely contributing to global atmospheric warming and should be incorporated into future climate change projections.
This paper presents a high-resolution (1-km) national displacement timeseries and velocity field for New Zealand from 2017 to 2026, derived by combining 9 years of Sentinel-1 InSAR and continuous GNSS data to refine estimates of coastal vertical land movement following the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake.
This study analyzes a pantropical dataset to demonstrate that liana infestation consistently reduces tree height, with the suppression effect intensifying alongside higher temperatures, greater rainfall seasonality, and increased liana occupancy.
