Examining the Impact of Topography and Vegetation on Existing Forest Canopy Height Products from ICESat-2 ATLAS/GEDI Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Forest canopy height (FCH) is an important variable for estimating forest biomass and ecosystem carbon sequestration. Spaceborne LiDAR data have been used to create wall-to-wall FCH maps, such as the forest tree height map of China (FCHChina), Global ...

Detecting Plateau Zokor (Eospalax baileyi) Mounds in UAV Imagery of Alpine Meadows Using Deep Learning Algorithms

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We developed PZM‐YOLO to automatically detect plateau zokor mounds in UAV imagery of alpine meadows. The model achieved reliable detection of small and densely distributed mounds under complex backgrounds, outperforming the baseline YOLOv5s. This framework supports mound counting, mound position, rodent impact assessment, and grassland restoration ...

CLEAR Interference Cancellation in a Wideband Dual‐Channel Receiver for Independent Satellite Multi‐Connectivity Links

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, the correlation learning estimation and adaptive reduction (CLEAR) of interference, an adaptive, blind and transparent interference compensation method applied in a wideband dual‐channel receiver, is studied for a pair of independent satellite multi‐connectivity links, using the same carrier frequency and signal bandwidth in use

Monitoring of historical structural materials with computed tomography

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is an excellent tool to solve certain engineering problems connected to material science (such as sulfate swelling, internal degradation due to freezing, and alkali silicate swelling) and to understand specific processes (frost peeling, acid action).

Presence of Nationally Banned Carbamates and Organophosphate Pesticides in Wild Carnivores, Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As top predators, terrestrial carnivores face great risk of pesticide exposure and serve as sentinels of environmental contamination. Additionally, terrestrial carnivores are frequently threatened by intentional or secondary poisoning with highly toxic compounds, such as carbamates and organophosphates.

Do the public take action when a severe snow warning is issued?

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
Extreme weather events pose significant risks to the population, making timely warnings essential for preparedness. The UK Met Office’s National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS) has issued impact‐based alerts for over a decade, yet evaluations of their effectiveness remain limited.

From Ambiguous Queries to Verifiable Insights: A Task‐Driven Framework for LLM‐Powered SOC Analysis⋆

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Security operations centre (SOC) analysts must investigate alerts, correlate threat intelligence and interpret heterogeneous telemetry under tight timing constraints. Although large language models (LLMs) offer strong understanding capabilities, directly applying them to SOC environments remains challenging due to semantic ambiguity in analyst

Modelling the Four‐Dimensional Power Line Sag Dynamics by Point Signature in Time‐Series Synthetic‐Aperture Radar Images

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Power lines in synthetic‐aperture radar (SAR) images are reflected as point signatures, which fluctuate annually in both the azimuth and range directions. A novel framework is proposed in this paper to evaluate the four‐dimensional dynamic status of power line sag using those point signatures in time‐series SAR images.

Who Runs for Office? Understanding Candidate Diversity, Safety and Localism in the UK General Election 2024

open access: yesThe Political Quarterly, Volume 96, Issue 1, Page 120-126, January/March 2025.
Abstract A record number of candidates contested parliamentary seats in the 2024 general election in the United Kingdom. This article discusses three key aspects that have garnered attention from both academics and practitioners studying the characteristics, motivations and experiences of candidates: gender representation, security concerns and local ...
