Impact of the Addition of a Shading Algorithm in a Physically Based Conceptual River Hydrological–Temperature Model

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic impacts on the thermal regime of rivers include climate change and deforestation. For the latter, developing modelling tools that can account for the impact of varying vegetation cover on river temperatures is essential. This study describes a new addition to the CEQUEAU hydrological and water temperature model: a shading ...

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 ...

Use of UAVs and multispectral images in the examination of phytocenoses in logged areas

open access: yesТрансформация экосистем
The study analyzes high-resolution multispectral images obtained via unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to assess the state of phytocenoses in logged areas that were cleared seven years ago.

Classification of tree species and standing dead trees in Boreal forests using UAV‐based RGB, multispectral, and LiDAR point clouds

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...

Positive feedbacks and alternative stable states in forest leaf types

open access: yesNature Communications
The emergence of alternative stable states in forest systems has significant implications for the functioning and structure of the terrestrial biosphere, yet empirical evidence remains scarce.

Land use dynamics, tree diversity and local perception of dry forest decline in southern Burkina Faso, West Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Conversion of tropical forests into cropland and pasture has risen incessantly during the last few decades. With the aim of providing evidence for informed-decision on sustainable forest management, this thesis examined the dynamics of land use change in
