Traffic agents for improving QoS in mixed infrastructure and ad hoc modes wireless LAN [PDF]

, 2006
As an important complement to infrastructured wireless networks, mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) are more flexible in providing wireless access services, but more difficult in meeting different quality of service (QoS) requirements for mobile customers ...

Quantifying aboveground herbaceous biomass in grassy ecosystems: a comparison of field and high‐resolution UAV‐LiDAR approaches

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The abundance of herbaceous vegetation in grassy ecosystems—which cover >25% of the world's land surface—is highly variable and impacts key ecological processes including carbon sequestration and support for grazing wildlife and livestock. Here, we present a method for using high‐resolution, UAV‐borne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) to estimate ...

Conceptualizing Resilience, Sustainability and Smartness for Building Fire Risk Management

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resilience, sustainability, and smartness (ReSuSm) within the building construction sector impact, or are impacted by building fires in one way or another. Hence, consideration of ReSuSm for building fire risk management (BFRM) is imperative to enhance safety and mitigate adverse impacts.

The wolf is back! Non‐consumptive effects of the return of a large carnivore on the use of supplementary feeding sites by roe deer

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus
