Evaluating Thermal and Color Sensors for Automating Detection of Penguins and Pinnipeds in Images Collected with an Unoccupied Aerial System

Drones, 2022
Estimating seabird and pinniped abundance is central to wildlife management and ecosystem monitoring in Antarctica. Unoccupied aerial systems (UAS) can collect images to support monitoring, but manual image analysis is often impractical.

Ecosystem Services: Response [PDF]

Science, 2013
C. Obst et al. provide a welcome opportunity to clarify the difference between environmental-economic cost-benefit analyses (such as ours) and environmental accounting exercises [such as the UN-SEEA ([ 1 ][1], [ 2 ][2]) initiative]. Accounting studies attempt to assess the total value of goods related to ecosystem services in a manner comparable to ...

Advancing research on ecosystem service bundles for comparative assessments and synthesis

Ecosystems and People, 2022
Social-ecological interactions have been shown to generate interrelated and reoccurring sets of ecosystem services, also known as ecosystem service bundles. Given the potential utility of the bundles concept, along with the recent surge in interest it is
