Big Bird: A global dataset of birds in drone imagery annotated to species level

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Drones are a valuable tool for surveying birds, but manually detecting and identifying birds in drone images is costly. We assembled a diverse dataset of 23 865 images of birds captured with 21 different drones across 11 countries. We labelled 4824 of these images, detailing the location, species, posture category, age category, and sex of 49 990 birds

Scale dependence in remotely sensed biodiversity: Leveraging continental‐scale imaging spectroscopy from the National Ecological Observatory Network

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Imaging spectroscopy enables large‐scale biodiversity assessment, yet spectral diversity metrics are scale dependent. Across 15 NEON ecosystems, we find that spectral richness increases sub‐linearly from 3600 m2 to 4 km2, whereas spectral divergence shows weak or inconsistent scaling with area, underscoring the importance of scale‐aware interpretation ...

ACID MINE DRAINAGE TREATMENT USING ARTIFICIAL WETLANDS

open access: yes, 2020
Acid mine drainage is a powerful source of contamination of surface and groundwater. For the treatment of acid mine drainage, there are active and passive methods, the latter include artifi cial wetlands, which are being used in industrialized countries, obtaining interesting results.

Artificial Wetland and Forest Buffer Zone: Hydraulic and Tracer Characterization

open access: yesVadose Zone Journal, 2010
As part of a European LIFE ArtWET project, two on‐site buffer zones, an artificial wetland and a forest plot, are being evaluated for their capacity to mitigate pesticide pollution. As treatment efficiency is highly dependent on the systems' hydrology, the present work focuses on the watershed and both systems' hydrological ...
