Abstract As social commerce increasingly unfolds within closed and relationally embedded digital environments, understanding how community dynamics translate into sustained information-sharing remains a critical challeng...

Context and background  Rapid urbanization in Lagos metropolis, Nigeria, has led to significant changes in its urban climate, manifesting as Urban Heat Islands (UHIs). Goal and Objectives: This study assesses the...

Small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) are increasingly being used to conduct atmospheric research. Because of the dynamic nature and inhomogeneity of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), the ability of instrumented sUAS ...

Surprisingly, although the term “Anthropocene” belongs to a geological taxonomy, it was categorically rejected by the scientific community of geologists. Their verdict was that we cannot grant the human species a geo...

This is the first part of a special issue on the impact of Upper Pleistocene climatic and environmental change on hominin occupations and landscape use. In this part there are six contributions: Davies, W., and Nigst,...

Abstract Cities have become important actors in international relations, and integral to security and environmental politics. We are living in an increasingly urban world, dominated by human settlements and activities. T...

Abstract Accurate measurements of Earth gravity and its variations with time are crucial not only for fundamental research on gravitation in physics, but also for other scientific areas including Earth sciences, geophysi...

Most alpine ecosystems are subject to non-native species invasion as climate warms and human disturbance increases. Therefore, it is important to identify the main barriers and facilitators of alpine plant invasions. Whi...

Here we present the first use of calcareous microfossils to examine the late Quaternary paleoecology of the endorheic Pozuelos Basin (Argentina). Modern deposition in the basin centers on Laguna de los Pozuelos (LP),a s...
