Sentinel-1-Based Analysis of the 2024 Tuanzhouyuan Dike Breach Disaster in Dongting Lake and Regional Risk Assessment by Shengping Yang, Hua Gao, Yue Li, Yaqi Guo, Linmiao Fan, Mingsheng Liao

“…Deformation monitoring identified certain dike sections with annual deformation exceeding 60 mm, with the breach section showing abnormal pre-event deformation characteristics, including reverse displacement patterns, indicating substantial safety risks. Hydrological analysis shows the water level during the 2024 flood season rose at an average daily rate of 0.50 m, 1.8 times higher than normal years, leading to seepage failure of the dike foundation. …”

Moderate wildfire severity favors seed removal by granivores in a Mexican pine forest by Cadena-Zamudio DA, Cadena-Iñiguez J, Aguirre-Medina JF, Cadena-Zamudio JD, Arispe-Vázquez JL, Barrera-Guzmán LA, Ayvar-Serna S, Díaz-Nájera JF

“…Our results showed a higher seed removal by vertebrates (birds and rodents) in the wildfire moderate severity treatment and in the time elapsed since wildfire occurrence; however, excluding vertebrates decreased the seed removal rate after the fire. Therefore, moderate-severity sites are an important factor in the communities of granivores that influence seed removal patterns in the temperate forest of Veracruz, Mexico. …”
