A Cascaded Strategy With Embodied Artificial Intelligence: Forward Kinematics Solutions for CCRobot‐S

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel cable‐climbing mechanism: the Collaborative Climbing Robot Squad (CCRobot‐S), a variant of Reconfigurable Cable‐Driven Parallel Robots (R‐CDPR), specifically designed for the inspection and maintenance of stay cables.

Improving forest age estimation to understand subtropical forest regrowth dynamics using deep learning image segmentation of time‐series historical aerial photographs

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Accurately estimating forest age is key to understanding how forests recover and evaluating restoration success. We developed a two‐step deep learning approach using historical greyscale aerial photographs to map forest age at fine spatial scales. By combining a pre‐trained model with localized fine‐tuning, our U‐Net + ResNet50 architecture achieved ...

On the compatibility of single‐scan terrestrial LiDAR with digital photogrammetry and field inventory metrics of vegetation structure in forest and agroforestry landscapes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The single‐scan approach to terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and the self‐terrain‐normalized form of drone‐based digital aerial photogrammetry (DAP) offer practical options for rapid assessment of the vegetation structure in tropical landscapes.

Urban Forests and Environmental Challenges in the Last Decades in Brazil: Insights for the National Urban Forestry Plan

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT National afforestation policies are crucial for outlining guidelines and goals to be implemented at the local level. Therefore, it is crucial to conduct research that systematizes indicators from across the country into a single proposal. This study examines the spatiotemporal distribution of urban forest research in Brazil from 1980 to 2020 ...

Can Happiness Be Sustainable? Monitoring Global Consumption Footprints From 2015 to 2024

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how happiness relates to resource consumption requires considering not only domestic environmental impacts but also the broader transnational effects embedded in global trade. To address this gap, this study introduces the Consumption Footprint–Happiness Ratio (CHR), a visual analytic metric that captures the intensity of ...

Understanding Interactions Between Sustainable Development Goals Within and Between Policy Programmes: The Case of Kenya's Dairy Sector

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Achieving Agenda 2030 depends on addressing interactions between the sustainable development goals (SDGs). In this paper, we conceptualize SDG interactions as synergies or trade‐offs, incoming or outgoing, and internal or external, and analyze how SDG 2 (Zero Hunger) interacts with other SDGs within and across policy programmes that support ...
