Comparing Spatial Measures of the Built Environment for Health Research
… in Marion County, Indiana. Walkability index and vegetation greenness variables were evaluated within 400-meter, 1-kilometer, and 2-kilometer Euclidian and network buffers, census block groups and tracts, and 805- X 805-meter grid cells. Results of analyses using each of these methods to test …

The hydrological flux of organic carbon at the catchment scale: a case study in the Cotter River catchment, Australia
… models have mainly investigated atmosphere-vegetationsoil stocks and fluxes but have largely ignored the hydrological flux of organic carbon. It is generally assumed that biomass and soil carbon are the only relevant pools in a landscape ecosystem. However, recent findings have suggested …

Factors Affecting Variability in the Distribution of Elephants at Nazinga Game Ranch (Burkina Faso, West Africa)
… variables, which were Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, elevation, stream density, poaching density, distance to dams, distance to rivers, distance to roads, and distance to poaching events. Elephant density varied seasonally and locally. Overall dry season density (0.24 elephants/km2) …

Vegetation Variability and Its Hydro-Climatologic Dependence
… is to investigate the multi-scale variability of vegetation, its dependence on hydrologic controls such as topography, soil properties, vegetation type, and climate variations (e.g., the El Nino Southern Oscillation [ENSO]), and to synthesize this understanding for future predictive modelling …

Elephant space use in relation to ephemeral surface water availability in the eastern Okavango Panhandle, Botswana
… Examining how features in the landscape such as vegetation productivity, water sources and anthropogenic activities drive the movement of elephants can help in understanding patterns of movement. It can also help to inform the establishment and alignment of protected areas, wildlife corridors and …

Managing herbivory over space and time: consequences for vegetation and cattle responses in African rangelands
Mammalian herbivory is integral to determining vegetation structure, composition and ecosystem function in African rangelands, however the extent to which managing the movement of herbivores, specifically livestock, over time and space can sustain functioning and productive rangelands remains …

Vegetation and Forest Fire Dynamics in Alberta: A Ground and Remote Sensing Data Analysis
… of the interplay between forest fires and vegetation dynamics in Alberta, Canada, under the lens of climate change. By synthesizing data from remote sensing, climate records, and fire databases, the study reveals the intricate relationships between vegetation cover changes and climatic …
