COMBINING YOLO V5 AND TRANSFER LEARNING FOR SMOKE-BASED WILDFIRE DETECTION IN BOREAL FORESTS [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2023 Wildfires present severe threats to various aspects of ecosystems, human settlements, and the environment. Early detection plays a critical role in minimizing the destructive consequences of wildfires.

Remote Sensing, 2020 Boreal forest is a sensitive indicator of the influence of climate change. It can quantify the level and spatial divergence of forest change for forest resources and carbon cycle research. This study selected a typical boreal forest affected by few human

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022 Boreal forests across Canada and other geographic areas globally have vast networks or densities of seismic lines, pipelines, access roads, utility corridors, and multipurpose trails collectively termed “linear disturbances” or “linear features ...

Land, 2021 In addressing the current climate crisis, research into how past societies have coped with risk and ecological uncertainty can provide old solutions to new problems. Here, we examine how human niche construction can be seen as risk management in the face

Patterns of regional site index across a North American boreal forest gradient
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Forest structure—the height, cover, vertical complexity, and spatial patterns of trees—is a key indicator of productivity variation across forested extents. During the 2017 and 2019 growing seasons, NASA’s Arctic-Boreal Vulnerability Experiment collected

Modeling the effects of organic nitrogen uptake by plants on the carbon cycling of boreal forest and tundra ecosystems [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Boreal forest and tundra are the major ecosystems in the northern high latitudes in which a large amount of carbon is stored. These ecosystems are nitrogen-limited due to slow mineralization rate of the soil organic nitrogen.

Fire, 2023 Soil organic carbon (SOC) is an important component of the ecosystem carbon pool, and fire is one of the important disturbances in forest ecosystems. With global warming, there has been a gradual increase in boreal forest fires, which has a nonnegligible

Natural fire regime: a guide for sustainable management of the Canadian boreal forest
Silva Fennica, 2002 The combination of certain features of fire disturbance, notably fire frequency, size and severity, may be used to characterize the disturbance regime in any region of the boreal forest.

Evolution of Canada's Boreal Forest Spatial Patterns as Seen from Space.
PLoS ONE, 2016 Understanding the development of landscape patterns over broad spatial and temporal scales is a major contribution to ecological sciences and is a critical area of research for forested land management.
