Modeling the Effect of the Spatial Pattern of Airborne Lidar Returns on the Prediction and the Uncertainty of Timber Merchantable Volume

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2017
Lidar data are regularly used to characterize forest structures. In this study, we determine the effects of three lidar attributes (density, spacing, scanning angle) on the accuracy and the uncertainty of timber merchantable volume estimates of balsam ...

DFT calculations and ROESY NMR data for the diastereochemical characterization of cytotoxic tetraterpenoids from the oleoresin of Abies balsamea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Eight non-carotenoid tetraterpenoids, abibalsamins C-J (3-10), were isolated from the oleoresin of Abies balsamea. Their chemical structures were determined based on analysis of 1D/2D NMR and MS data.

Phylogenetic relationships, possible ancient hybridization, and biogeographic history of Abies (Pinaceae) based on data from nuclear, plastid, and mitochondrial genomes

open access: yes, 2015
Abies, the second largest genus of Pinaceae, consists of approximately 48 species occurring in the north temperate region. Previous molecular phylogenetic studies improved our understanding of relationships within the genus, but were limited by relying ...
