Data Structures for 2D Representation of Terrain Models
EncyclopediaThis entry gives an overview of the main data structures and approaches used for a two-dimensional representation of the terrain surface using a digital elevation model (DEM). A DEM represents the elevation of the earth surface from a set of points.

Ecography, EarlyView.Escalating wildfire frequency and severity are altering wildland habitats worldwide. Yet investigations into fire impacts on wildlife habitat rarely extend to the macroecological scales relevant to species conservation and global change processes. We evaluate the effects of wildfire on habitat quality and selection by large mammals spanning three ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Climate change is significantly affecting biodiversity, and organisms that depend on external temperature – such as ectotherms – are particularly vulnerable to these effects. Microhabitats provide refuge for species, thereby reducing exposure to thermal and hydric stress under climate change.

Flexible Chromatic VIS‐IR Meta‐Textile for Multi‐Scenario Stealth
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.A flexible chromatic meta‐textile was developed for multi‐spectral stealth across VIS‐IR bands, combining low color difference, ultralow infrared emissivity, and passive radiative cooling. The textile exhibits excellent VIS wide‐angle compatibility, optical durability, and mechanical flexibility, offering a promising solution for advanced stealth ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not
