Calling time on the imperial lawn and the imperative for greenhouse gas mitigation
Non-technical summary As green spaces, lawns are often thought to capture carbon from the atmosphere. However, once mowing, fertlising and irrigation are taken into account, we show that they become carbon sources, at least in the long run.

Vision-Based Relative Pose Estimation of Non-Cooperative Spacecraft Using Time-of-Flight Camera
This paper deals with a vision-based pose estimation of a target using a time-of-flight (ToF) camera. In particular, a relative pose estimation algorithm for non-cooperative targets that lack markers or accessible sensor is proposed. The proposed method,

Using Deep Networks for Drone Detection
Drone detection is the problem of finding the smallest rectangle that encloses the drone(s) in a video sequence. In this study, we propose a solution using an end-to-end object detection model based on convolutional neural networks.
