What does coexistence mean? Insight from place‐based trajectories of pastoralists and bears encounters in the Pyrenees

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The recovery of large carnivores in Europe raises issues related to sharing landscape with humans. Beyond technical solutions, it is widely recognized that social factors also contribute to shaping coexistence. In this context, scholars increasingly stress the need to adopt place‐based approaches by analysing how humans and wildlife interact ...

More pumas (Puma concolor) does not change perceptions: The mismatched response of ranchers to the presence of a top carnivore

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human‐wildlife conflicts (HWCs) are one of the most critical conservation challenges worldwide. Large carnivores are frequently at the centre of these conflicts because of the perceived and real threats they pose to livestock and human safety.

Faunal diversity of Fagus sylvatica forests: A regional and European perspective based on three indicator groups

Annals of Forest Research, 2014
While the postglacial history of European beech (Fagus sylvatica) and the plant species composition of beech forests in  Central Europe are fairly well understood, the faunal biodiversity has been less well investigated.

Peculiarities of natural regeneration in beech stands of the Ukrainian Carpathians

Наукові праці Лісівничої академії наук України, 2021
The peculiarities of natural regeneration have been studied in beech stands in which management activities are carried out or are absent. Investigated was the dependence of the amount of self-seeding and young growth of beech upon the age of the trees ...

Large‐scale characterization of horizontal forest structure from remote sensing optical images

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Sub‐meter resolution remote sensing data and tree crown segmentation techniques hold promise in offering detailed information that can support the characterization of forest structure from a horizontal perspective, offering new insights in the tree crown structure at scale.

Spatial Analysis of a mixed Beech, Spruce and Fir stand in the Eastern Alps [PDF]

, 2010
In a forest reserve, located in the Eastern Italian Alps, a 4 ha permanent plot has been set up in a beech-spruce-fir multilayered forest, left to natural evolution for more than 30 years, in order to detect stand structure and spatial patterns ...

Environmental change impacts on the C- and N-cycle of European forests: a model comparison study [Discussion paper]

, 2012
Forests are important components of the greenhouse gas balance of Europe. There is considerable uncertainty about how predicted changes to climate and nitrogen deposition will perturb the carbon and nitrogen cycles of European forests and thereby alter ...

Using Airborne Laser Scanning and Sentinel‐2 to Understand Subcanopy Light Regimes and Understory Diversity of Vascular Plants in Temperate Mountain Forests

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that not just Airborne Laser Scanning, but also Sentinel‐2 can effectively estimate absolute canopy cover and canopy cover heterogeneity ‐ structural metrics that determine the subcanopy light regime, found to be linked to the vascular plant species richness in the understory of temperate mountain forests.

Ukrainian Version of FRAX: from Creation to Validation

Bolʹ, Sustavy, Pozvonočnik, 2016
FRAX® is an algorithm that computes 10-year probability of hip fracture and major osteoporotic fractures (hip, humerus, wrist fractures and clinical vertebral fractures) in patients aged 40 years and older. These probabilities are calculated based on age,

The political philosophy of new labour

, 2004
Is New Labour more style than substance? Are its policies merely driven by pragmatism? Little has been published on the party's core ideas, the very existence of which is contested.
