Unique microbiome in organic matter-polluted urban rivers
<p>Approximately half of the global annual production of wastewater is released untreated into aquatic environments, which results in worldwide organic matter pollution in urban rivers, especially in highly populated developing countries. Nonetheless, information on microbial community assembly and assembly-driving processes in organic matter-polluted urban rivers remains elusive. In this study, a field study based on water and sediment samples collected from 200 organic matter-polluted urban rivers of 82 cities in China and Indonesia is combined with laboratory water-sediment column experiments. Our findings demonstrate a unique microbiome in these urban rivers. Among the community assembly-regulating factors, both organic matter and geographic conditions play major roles in determining prokaryotic and eukaryotic community assemblies, especially regarding the critical role of organic matter in regulating taxonomic composition. Using a dissimilarity-overlap approach, we found universality in the dynamics of water and sediment community assembly in organic matter-polluted urban rivers, which is distinctively different from patterns in eutrophic and oligotrophic waters. The prokaryotic and eukaryotic communities are dominated by deterministic and stochastic processes, respectively. Interestingly, water prokaryotic communities showed a three-phase cyclic succession of the community assembly process before, during, and after organic matter pollution. Our study provides the first large-scale and comprehensive insight into the prokaryotic and eukaryotic community assembly in organic matter-polluted urban rivers and supports their future sustainable management.</p>

Brussels image-based library of urban materials
<p>The header file <em>UrbanSpectralLibrary_APEX_Brussels_2015_GENLIB.hdr</em> and its associated spectral library file <em>UrbanSpectralLibrary_APEX_Brussels_2015_GENLIB.sli</em> constitute a library of 1274 urban cover type spectra describing surface reflectance over the VNIR-SWIR wavelength domain.</p> <p>The library spectra were extracted from a 2m-resolution APEX airborne hyperspectral image of Brussels (SONIA site of BELAIR program) acquired during the summer of 2015. The source image can be downloaded from the <a href="https://www.vito-eodata.be">VITO Product Distribution Portal</a>.</p> <p>Endmember pixels were algorithmically selected using Iterative Spectral Distancing (see <a href="https://doi.org/10.1109/IGARSS47720.2021.9555079">this paper</a> for more info), and the corresponding endmember spectra were smoothed with a Gaussian filter. Note that the WGS84 latitude-longitude coordinates of the endmember pixels are included in the header file.</p> <p>The spectra were manually interpreted and labelled using high-resolution aerial imagery, Google Street View, online documentation and comparison to previously published urban spectral libraries (SLUM, KLUM, UCSB ...). Three sets of spectra labels are provided in this library: one for EAGLE land cover (EAGLE_LCC, consult the <a href="https://land.copernicus.eu/eagle">EAGLE website</a> for more info), one for generalized material groupings (GENLIB_LCH_BuC_MG) and one for more detailed artificial material type (GENLIB_LCH_BuC_AMT).</p>

Damage cadasters for wildland-urban interface fires in Chile, 2019-2022
<p><span>Wildland-urban interface (WUI) regions are particularly vulnerable to wildfires due to their proximity to both nature and urban developments, posing significant risks to lives and property. To enhance our understanding of the risk profiles in WUI areas, we analysed seven fire case studies in central Chile. </span></p> <p><span>In the paper <em>"</em><span><em>Modelling the vulnerability of urban settings to WUI fires in Chile",</em> </span>We developed a mixed-methods approach for conducting local-scale analyses which involved field surveys, remote-sensing through satellite and drone imagery, and GIS-based analysis of the collected data. The methodology led to the generation of a georeferenced dataset of damaged and undamaged dwellings, including 16 variables representing their physical characteristics, spatial arrangement, and the availability of fire suppression resources. A binary classification model was then used to assess the relative importance of these attributes as indicators of vulnerability. The analysis revealed that spatial arrangement factors have a greater impact on damage prediction than the structural conditions and fire preparedness of individual units. Specifically, factors such as dwelling proximity to neighbours, distance to vegetation, proximity to the border of dwelling groups, and distance from the origin of the fire substantially contribute to the prediction of fire damage. Other structural attributes associated with less affluent homes may also increase the likelihood of damage, although further data is required for confirmation. This study provides insights for the design, planning, and governance of WUI areas in Chile, aiding the development of risk mitigation strategies for both built structures and the broader territorial area.</span></p>

Data from: Variation in flower size and shape of Impatiens capensis is correlated with urbanization in Montreal, Canada
<p><span>Urbanization is changing the conditions in which many species live, forcing them to adjust to these novel environments. Floral size and shape are critical traits for the reproduction of plants pollinated by animals as they are involved in the attraction of pollinators and in efficient pollination. Variation in size and shape could be affected by urbanization via its modification of the abiotic environment (habitat fragmentation, water availability, temperature, soil properties), or via its impact on the biotic environment of plants (pollination, herbivory). Although numerous studies have assessed the impact of urbanization on pollinator communities and on many plant traits, few have investigated its impact on floral size and shape while quantifying the proportion of the total urbanization effect that is due to biotic interactions. In this study, we tested if urbanization and pollinator visitation rates affects the flower shape of the spotted jewelweed, <em>Impatiens capensis</em>. We quantified size and shape of flowers in frontal and profile views using geometric morphometrics for 228 individuals from six populations from the region of Montreal, Canada. Pollinator visitation rates were estimated at each site and the main pollinators were found to be bumblebees, honeybees and hummingbirds. We found that floral size and shape are significantly correlated with urbanization as measured by the amount of vegetation in the surrounding environment of the plants (mean normalized vegetation index, NDVI) and by the visitation rates of bumblebees and honey bees. Partitioning of the total flower shape variation suggests that urbanization affects flower shape through abiotic factors and via its impact on pollinator visitation rates. While further studies from other cities are necessary to confirm the role of urbanization in shaping the floral shape of <em>I. capensis</em>, these results support the idea that urbanization could affect flower shapes.</span></p>
