Variation in Total Electron Content During a Severe Geomagnetic Storm, 23–24 April 2023 by Atirsaw Muluye Tilahun, Edward Uluma, Yohannes Getachew Ejigu

“…In this paper, we study the geomagnetic storm that occurred on 23–24 April 2023. We present variations in the values of interplanetary magnetic field (IMF-Bz), solar wind parameters (Vsw, Nsw, Tsw, and Psw), geomagnetic index (SYM-H), and vertical total electron content (VTEC) obtained from 18 GPS-TEC stations situated in equatorial, mid-latitude, and high-latitude regions. …”

Quantifying Long-Term Spatiotemporal Variation in and Drivers of the Surface Daytime Urban Heat Island Effect in Major Chinese Cities: Perspectives from Different Climate Zones by Minxue Zheng, Dianwei Zheng, Qiu Shen, Feng Jia

“…Using a multivariate stepwise regression model, the relative contributions of various influencing factors to the UHI effect were quantified, explaining 27.1% to 57.2% of the variation across different climate zones. In particular, the economic vulnerability index and population density were the main factors affecting the SUHII in the MTZ and SSZ. …”

Spatiotemporal evolution of landscape ecological risk and its driving factors of the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei major mineral belt, 1985–2022 by Yilin Wang, Xiaohong Wang, Wei Zhang, Weidong Man, Mingyue Liu, Linlin Jiao

“…The ‘high-high’ aggregations are primarily located in the northern, central and western parts of the study area, while the ‘low-low’ aggregation zones are mainly located in the southeastern study region. (4) The spatial distribution of landscape ecological risk is predominantly shaped by population density and slope. In the context of interactive factor detection, the positive interaction between slope and average annual temperature, night-time illumination and slope, population density and annual precipitation were identified as exerting a more significant influence on the observed spatial differentiation of landscape ecological risk. …”

UAV LiDAR expands the understanding of forest tree diversity by Jianyang Liu, Ying Quan, Guoqiang Zhao, Baozhong Yuan, Bin Wang, Mingze Li

“…The results revealed that (1) the diversity indices calculated with importance value correlate better with LiDAR features than with relative density; (2) among heterogeneity metrics, Rao’s Q outperformed the coefficient of variation (CV), and heterogeneity metrics overall performed better than structural features in estimating tree diversity; (3) the LiDAR data provided fine-scale structural information, with the highest accuracy for estimating tree diversity achieved at a 1 m spatial resolution; and (4) features from the cover category, including canopy cover (CC), cover of the herbaceous layer (CH), and cover of the tree layer (CT), demonstrated greater robustness and stronger correlations with tree diversity across different spatial resolutions. …”

Density responses of lesser-studied carnivores to habitat and management strategies in southern Tanzania's Ruaha-Rungwa landscape. by Marie Hardouin, Charlotte E Searle, Paolo Strampelli, Josephine Smit, Amy Dickman, Alex L Lobora, J Marcus Rowcliffe

“…Taken together, precipitation, the abundance of apex predators, and the level of anthropogenic pressure likely drive such variation. Striped hyaena were detected only in the Wildlife Management Area and at low density (1.36 [±0.50] individuals per 100 km2), potentially due to the location of the surveyed sites at the edge of the species' global range, high densities of sympatric competitors, and anthropogenic edge effects. …”
