Understanding how climate change impacts the plant life cycle is critical for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services. Our findings suggest that Terminalia paniculata Roth, a common tropical deciduous tree species in the Western Ghats, is now flowering and fruiting at more scattered times than it used to in the past.

Direct georeferencing of multi-line images with a general sensor model
A general sensor model for the direct georeferencing of multi-line images acquired by CCD array sensors is under development at our Institute. The model is designed for sensors carried on both spacecraft and aircraft. If the sensor position and attitude are provided by additional observations (GPS/INS), the model computes the approximations of the ...

Life after herbarium digitisation: Physical and digital collections, curation and use
Societal Impact Statement Collections of dried plant specimens (herbaria) provide an invaluable resource for the study of many areas of scientific interest and conservation globally. Digitisation increases access to specimens and metadata, enabling efficient use across a broad spectrum of research.

Balancing tracks and trees: Assessing railroad impact on Brazilian biodiversity
The Brazilian West–East Integration Railway (FIOL) aims to boost the national economy by improving commodity transport; however, it crosses three of Brazil's most biodiverse and fragile regions: the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Using digitised plant records and land‐use analyses, our study reveals significant vegetation loss within the ...

Georeferencing multi-scale imagery in photogrammetry [PDF]
Georeferencing is crucial to make imagery useful for extracting geospatial information. This thesis presents an economic and feasible approach to georeference multi-scale imagery to the common coordinate system, which is called local coordinate system ...

Mass digitisation of natural science collections and archives has increasingly become a priority for scientific heritage institutions. Here, we explore the potential of mass digitisation to improve our understanding of the nature and history of scientific collaboration. Focusing on mycologist Greta B.
