Effect of food value-chain connections on land-use change by P.M. Post, Y. Dou, A. Nelson

“…Changes in food production, often driven by distant demand, have a significant influence on sustainable management and use of land and water, and are in turn a driving factor of biodiversity change. While the connection between land use and demand through value chains is increasingly understood, there is no comprehensive conceptualisation of this relationship. …”

Characterization of soundscapes with acoustic indices and clustering reveals phenology patterns in a subtropical rainforest by Yan-Tin Lai, Sheng-Shan Lu, Ming-Tang Shiao

“…Our study confirms that acoustic indices can extract meaningful ecological features, and unsupervised algorithms offer valuable insights into biodiversity exploration data-scarce regions. The combination of these methods has led to the development of non-species-specific soundscape classification, which not only facilitates the monitoring of phenological dynamics across multiple biological groups in the face of climate change but also lays the foundation for further exploration of key taxa.…”

A Global hydrological index describes ecological conditions in rivers: A new approach to environmental flow calculation reflecting macroinvertebrate requirements by Andrzej Wałęga, Renata Kędzior, Tomasz Skalski, Dariusz Młyński

“…In case of smaller catchments, where water resources are limited, lesser quantity of water can be used on people activities and higher water should be guaranteed to achieve properly biodiversity of macroinvertebrates. To implement effective river management, the balance between environmental requirements and human activities needs more attention, emphasizing the quantity, timing, and quality of water required to support freshwater and water-dependent ecosystems along with the needs of human users of water resources.…”
