Carbon Stock Estimation Along Altitudinal Gradient in Sekele-Mariam Dry Evergreen Montane Forest, North-Western Ethiopia

open access: yesAgriculture Forestry and Fisheries, 2019
This study was conducted to estimate carbon stock along altitudinal gradient of Sekele-Mariam dry Afromontane forest, North- Western Ethiopia. A systematic random sampling was employed to collect tree/shrub diameter and height, litter and soil data.

Chironomid (Insecta: Diptera) assemblages along an Andean altitudinal gradient [PDF]

open access: yesAquatic Biology, 2014
Chironomidae are an abundant, diverse and ecologically important group common in mountain streams worldwide, but their patterns of distribution have been poorly described for the Andes region in western-central Argentina. Here we examine chironomid assemblages along an altitudinal gradient in the Mendoza River basin to study how spatial and seasonal ...

Agricultural Diversification at the Margin. Strategies and Determinants in Italian Mountain and Remote Areas

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper explores the convergence in on‐farm diversification strategies of agricultural holdings, between remote areas and more central ones. Using Italian farm‐level data, we explore the determinants of diversification strategies across farms.

Parallel functional and stoichiometric trait shifts in South American and African forest communities with elevation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Amazon and Congo basins are the two largest continuous blocks of tropical forest with a central role for global biogeochemical cycles and ecology. However, both biomes differ in structure and species richness and composition.

Validation and Application of European Beech Phenological Metrics Derived from MODIS Data along an Altitudinal Gradient

open access: yesForests, 2019
Monitoring plant phenology is one of the means of detecting the response of vegetation to changing environmental conditions. One approach for the study of vegetation phenology from local to global scales is to apply satellite-based indices.

Real‐Time and Rapid Dynamic Missile Identification Utilizing a TiOx Memristor Array

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Real‐time missile target identification is demonstrated using an artificial intelligence model based on step‐weighted long–short‐term memory networks and a TiOx memristor array. The approach classifies five projectile types with enhanced early‐stage prediction through data augmentation and custom training strategies. Achieving 94.4% accuracy, the model

Contrasting altitudinal variation of alpine plant communities along the Swedish mountains

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Changes in abiotic factors along altitudinal and latitudinal gradients cause powerful environmental gradients. The topography of alpine areas generates environmental gradients over short distances, and alpine areas are expected to experience greater ...
