Congressionally designated wilderness offers the highest level of land protection in the USA, comparable to category 1b wilderness as defined by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, yet wilderness areas face impacts of climate change. Researchers and managers increasingly recognize the immense challenge of stewarding wilderness in a changing climate. Although responding to climate change is considered a wicked p...
Recent fissure-fed eruptions from the Svartsengi Volcanic System have significantly impacted Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula. With eruptions likely to continue intermittently for decades to centuries, exploring the controls on the locations of fissure-fed eruptions is important for hazard assessment and risk mitigation. This study maps eruptive fissures from six eruptions from December 2023 to September 2024 using satellite and...
Meet me in the middle: potential collaborative benthic hunting in humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae)NARA Subscribed
Cooperative hunting, in its numerous forms, has implications for animal cognition and social evolution. We used multi-sensor acoustic/video recording tags attached to free-swimming humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) to provide the species’ first documentation of cooperative, coordinated benthic hunting and evidence supporting collaboration, the most cognitively complex level of hunting. Collaborative hunting, consisting...
SNAPSHOT USA 2024: Year 6 of the Coordinated National Camera Trap Survey of the United StatesNARA Subscribed
Motivation SNAPSHOT USA is an annual, multi‐contributor camera trap survey of mammals across the United States. The growing SNAPSHOT USA dataset is intended for tracking the spatial and temporal responses of mammal populations to changes in land use, land cover and climate. These data will be useful for exploring the drivers of spatial and temporal changes in relative abundance and distribution, as well as the impacts of speci...
