Canopy cover as the primary factor affecting habitat use by grassland-shrubland bird species in central Texas, USA

Journal of Field Ornithology
Woody vegetation continues to encroach into grasslands in many regions of the world. It often leads to habitat loss for grassland birds. Habitat loss is one reason for the ongoing declines in abundance of many bird species that are grassland obligates ...

Linking remote sensing, land cover and disease [PDF]

, 2000
Land cover is a critical variable in epidemiology and can be characterized remotely. A framework is used to describe both the links between land cover and radiation recorded in a remotely sensed image, and the links between land cover and the disease ...

A Global Methane Observation System to Reduce Uncertainty for Anthropogenic and Natural Sources and Sinks for Detecting and Attributing Climate Feedbacks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conceptual illustration of a Global Ecosystem Methane Observing System (GEM‐OS) integrating satellites, aircraft, atmospheric networks, and ecosystem measurements to quantify methane emissions from anthropogenic and natural sources. The multi‐scale observing framework improves source attribution, reduces uncertainty in regional methane budgets, and ...

Remote Sensing of Canopy Cover in Horticultural Crops [PDF]

HortScience, 2008
Canopy cover (CC) is an important indicator of stage of growth and crop water use in horticultural crops. Remote sensing of CC has been studied in several major crops, but not in most horticultural crops. We measured CC of 11 different annual and perennial horticultural crops in various growth stages on 30 fields on the west side ...

Revolutionising Agricultural Sustainability: New ‘Furrow Tillage’ can Mitigate Short‐Term Soil‐to‐Atmosphere CO2 Flux and Promote Soil‐Plant‐Microbe Health

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Furrow tillage resolves the conventional‐vs.‐no‐tillage trade‐off by simultaneously cutting CO2 efflux to 2.0–3.0 g C m−2 d−1 and unlocking high nutrient availability for the rice rhizosphere. This scalable agronomic solution strengthens soil health, enhances plant physiology, reshapes microbial metabolism, and shifts paddy systems toward a net ...

Assessing Fractional Cover in the Alpine Treeline Ecotone Using the WSL Monoplotting Tool and Airborne Lidar

Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing, 2017
As forest cover in mountain areas impacts headwater properties like habitat extent and downstream water resources, it is important to assess and understand the changes that occur across forest transition zones like the alpine treeline ecotone (ATE). Such

ASSESSING THE CANOPY INTEGRITY USING CANOPY DIGITAL IMAGES IN SEMIDECIDUOUS FOREST FRAGMENT IN SÃO CARLOS - SP- BRAZIL1

Revista Árvore, 2017
It is well-known that conducting experimental research aiming the characterization of canopy structure of forests can be a difficult and costly task and, generally, requires an expert to extract, in loco, relevant information.

Beyond City-Level Canopy Cover

Proceedings of The World Conference on Climate Change and Global Warming
Urban trees provide critical ecosystem services that enhance thermal comfort, public health, and urban livability. However, tree cover equity—the fair distribution of tree-based benefits across socio-economic groups—remains weakly addressed in Indian urban policy.
