Deciphering the impact of anthropogenic coastal infrastructure on shoreline dynamicity along Gopalpur coast of Odisha (India): An integrated assessment with geospatial and field-based approaches

Manoranjan Mishra et al.

Summary: Odisha's coastline is home to various industries such as oil and gas, ports, power plants, fishing, tourism, and mining, which have negative effects on the coastal ecology and shoreline morphodynamics. A study was conducted to analyze how recent development activities, particularly the construction of ports and related infrastructure, impact the shoreline morphodynamics in the Gopalpur coast. The results showed erosion in most of the studied zones except for one zone, indicating the need for effective coastal zone management to prevent further deterioration.

Forest-cover change rather than climate change determined giant panda's population persistence

Yue Wang et al.

Summary: This study found that forest-cover change is the most important factor driving giant panda's population persistence, while the synergistic effect of climate change and land-use change has a relatively small impact. These findings highlight the need for a more comprehensive understanding of the relative effects of climate change and land-use change in addressing global biodiversity loss.

A new regionalization of rainfall patterns based on wavelet transform information and hierarchical cluster analysis in northeastern Algeria

Bilel Zerouali et al.

Summary: Due to its geographical location, Algeria experiences high spatiotemporal rainfall variability. This study analyzed data from 69 rain gauges located in different regions of northeastern Algeria from 1970-2007 to understand the regional rainfall patterns. The analysis revealed that the northern humid region is dominated by periodic annual fluctuations, while the arid regions experience long-term periodic phenomena. Additionally, the study found a long period of drought during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, with a recent tendency towards wetter conditions since the late 1990s.

Bilel Zerouali et al.

Summary: This research assessed the spatiotemporal meteorological drought pattern in the Oued Sebaou basin in central Algeria from 1972 to 2010 using SPI data. The study revealed a prolonged drought starting in the late 1980s, with over 50% of stations experiencing moderate to severe dry events from 1986 to 2001. Comparison of SPI values across decades showed that extreme wet events occurred in 7% of cases from 2002 to 2010, significantly higher than the 1.75% in the 1972-1981 decade.

Summary: Designating parts of forests as protected areas is crucial for conservation efforts, but the effectiveness varies depending on factors such as age of the park, suitability for agriculture, and level of protection. A low level of forest cover outside a protected area can serve as an early warning sign of potential future forest loss within the area, allowing for proactive conservation measures to be implemented.
