Effects of solar activity on noise in CALIOP profiles above the South Atlantic Anomaly [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2014
We show that nighttime dark noise measurements from the spaceborne lidar CALIOP contain valuable information about the evolution of upwelling high-energy radiation levels.

From passion to illegality: Understanding succulent consumers' decision to participate in the illegal online wildlife trade

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The illegal wildlife trade represents a significant threat to biodiversity. Limited research has examined the illegal trade in succulents, plants characterized by their ability to store water in their leaves, stems or roots. The growing popularity of succulents has contributed to the emergence of illicit consumer practices.

A New Airborne Lidar for Remote Sensing of Canopy Fluorescence and Vertical Profile

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
We report the development of a new lidar system for airborne remote sensing of chlorophyll fluorescence (ChlF) and vertical profile of canopies. By combining laserinduced fluorescence (LIF), sun-induced fluorescence (SIF) and canopy height distribution ...

Water ice at low to midlatitudes on Mars

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper, we analyze water ice occurrences at the surface of Mars using near-infrared observations, and we study their distribution with a climate model. Latitudes between 45{\deg}S and 50{\deg}N are considered.

Stakeholder and rightsholder engagement in environmental research: Lessons from Canadian scholars engaging diverse groups

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract To promote inclusivity, relevance and actionability of environmental research, scholars are engaging with rightsholders and stakeholders (Indigenous groups, governments and individuals) to co‐produce research. These transdisciplinary approaches represent diverse forms of ‘engaged’ research (e.g.

Testing optimal defense theory: Root resistance selection in chicory (Cichorium intybus) reduces foliar defense and alters aphid performance and feeding behavior

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Root‐focused resistance in chicory reduces defenses in leaves, impairing root aphids but enhancing foliar aphid performance. Selecting root resistance can create unintended trade‐offs across plant organs. Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of herbivores at both aboveground (AG) and belowground (BG) levels, involving ...

COBASE: A new copula‐based shuffling method for ensemble weather forecast postprocessing

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We propose COBASE, a novel copula‐based postprocessing methododology that combines the strengths of multivariate parametric correction with non‐parametric rank‐based approaches. We consider two case studies for multi‐site temperature in Austria and multi‐site temperature and dew‐point temperature in the Netherlands.

The non‐hydrostatic option of the ECMWF global weather forecast model: Improvements for kilometre‐scale modelling

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study presents improvements to the non‐hydrostatic version of the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Integrated Forecasting System (IFS), enabling stable global simulations at 1.4‐km resolution. A systematic comparison with the hydrostatic version at resolutions from 9 to 1.4 km shows that non‐hydrostatic effects emerge in ...
