Urbanization and its effects on land and water resources in Ijebuland, southwestern Nigeria

Margaret Yejide Onanuga et al.

Summary: The study found that in a relatively homogenous Yoruba ethnic group community in Southwestern Nigeria, there was a significant increase in built-up area and decrease in forest and surface water area from 1986 to 2016. Coping strategies to the degrading effects were weak and reactive, indicating a lack of prior planning for such changes.

Disentangling the factors that vary the impact of trees on flooding (a review)

Tapuwa R. Marapara et al.

Summary: There is increasing interest in the role of trees and forests in reducing the risk of flooding. However, the effectiveness of trees varies depending on factors such as species, location, and scale. Selecting the appropriate management approach based on these factors can better utilize trees and forests to help reduce flood risk.

Identifying draught cattle in the past: Lessons from large-scale analysis of archaeological datasets

Matilda Holmes et al.

Summary: This study examined the correlation between biological variables and adaptive remodelling of autopodia in medieval England. The results showed a link between sex, body mass, and lower limb bone changes, highlighting the importance of analyzing anterior and posterior limb elements separately to identify draught use. The study provides new evidence for understanding the effects of anatomical position, sex, and body size on skeletal changes associated with draught cattle.

A Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) Modeling Approach to Prioritize Soil Conservation Management in River Basin Critical Areas Coupled With Future Climate Scenario Analysis

Ashish Pandey et al.

Summary: The study highlights the importance of formulating sustainable management policies to address land degradation in about 44% of India. Using the SWAT model and BMPs to manage river basins can reduce soil erosion and improve water quality, but the application becomes more complex under different climate change scenarios.

Indices based assessment of built-up density and urban expansion of fast growing Surat city using multi-temporal Landsat data sets

Shahfahad et al.

Summary: The study shows that the population and built-up area of Surat are increasing rapidly, with the built-up area growing at a faster rate than the population. There is a very strong positive correlation between population density and built-up area, and a moderate positive correlation between population distribution and built-up area. Therefore, while the growth rates of population and urban area may not be identical, there are strong relationships between their distribution and density.
