Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Host Developmental Stage and Vegetation Type Govern Root EcM Fungal Assembly in Temperate Forests

Journal of Fungi
Ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi are critical mediators of forest succession, yet the relative contributions of stochastic (neutral) and deterministic (niche-based) processes in shaping their communities are still poorly understood.

Age‐related trends in niche position and specialization in Neotropical vertebrates

Ecography, EarlyView.
Species' niche positions and breadths within a region's environmental space, measured through ecological niche factor analysis (ENFA) as marginality and specialization, can reflect evolutionary constraints related to lineage age. The ‘internal incumbency' hypothesis predicts that older species, due to competitive preemption, occupy more central niche ...

Sex‐specific population dynamics of ocelots in Belize using open population spatial capture–recapture

Ecosphere, 2019
We used open population, spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models to estimate sex‐specific density, survival, per capita recruitment, and population growth rate of ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) at five sites in Belize with up to 12 yr of data per site. Open

Seasonal Spatial Population Density Distribution Dynamics of Lynx and Ungulate Prey in Cold‐Temperate Coniferous Forests 寒温带针叶林猞猁和有蹄类猎物种群密度空间分布的季节性动态研究

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.
This study used camera trap data from 6 years between 2016 and 2021 and generalized linear mixed models to explore the factors that influence the spatial density distribution of lynx and its prey populations in warm and cold seasons in Inner Mongolia Hanma National Nature Reserve, China.

Towards accurate individual tree parameters estimation in dense forest: optimized coarse-to-fine algorithms for registering UAV and terrestrial LiDAR data

GIScience & Remote Sensing, 2023
Accurate quantification of individual tree parameters is vital for precise forest inventory and sustainable forest management. However, in dense forests, terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), which can provide accurate and detailed forest structural ...
