Cycling infrastructure as a determinant of cycling for recreation and transportation in Montréal, Canada: a natural experiment using the longitudinal national population health survey (2025) – Philippe Apparicio

par

Background. Cycling is associated with numerous health benefits. Evidence suggests that new cycling infrastructure leads to increases in cycling, though studies of network-level changes are lacking. The objective of this study was to determine the longitudinal effect of cycling infrastructure on cycling engagement among adults living in Montréal, Canada. Methods. Using data from the National … Read more

Beekeeping suitability prediction based on an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system and apiary level data

par

The study employs a predictive modelling approach using a fuzzy inference system to assess the beekeeping potential of a geographic area. Specifically, an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system with subtractive clustering (ANFIS-SC) was utilized, incorporating six input variables that influence Apis mellifera health and productivity, and field data as the output variable reflecting the state of … Read more

Understanding Terrestrial Water Storage Changes Derived from the GRACE/GRACE-FO in the Inner Niger Delta in West Africa

par

This study analyzed terrestrial water storage (TWS) changes across the Inner Niger Delta (IND) in Mali (West Africa) from April 2002 to September 2022 using Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE), GRACE-Follow-On (GRACE-FO), and Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS) products. TWS changes exhibited strong seasonal patterns (−170 mm to 330 mm) with a high … Read more
