Fluvial fishes, those primarily inhabiting rivers and streams, are facing substantial threats in their native ranges from habitat degradation which contributes to decreases in richness and abundance of many species. Because distributions of fluvial species are often not well developed across large spatial scales, the ability to understand the consequences of threats is limited. Species

Livestream video has become a crucial tool for volcano monitoring in recent years, building upon the use of webcam snapshots that have been common for the past two decades. In Hawaii, livestream video was first tested in 2018, and today, livestream video is a vital tool for the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory and partner agencies (National Park Service and Hawaiʻi County Civil Defense) as...

Numerical modeling of Earth surface processes emerged as an important scientific tool in the late 1960s to mid-1970s, driven by the development of finite element methods in computer science. These advancements, initially applied in civil engineering, enabled scientists to simulate complex geological phenomena. At that time, models were often only described in publications, access was...
