Deep learning-driven forest canopy height mapping in boreal regions through multi-source remote sensing fusion: Integrating Sentinel-1/2, PALSAR, and ICESat-2/LVIS data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Forest canopy height is a key indicator for estimating forest carbon sinks and managing vegetation growth. Existing methods for fusing optical and Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data still have limitations in canopy height estimation for boreal ...

Preliminary Canopy Removal Experiments in Algal Dominated Communities Low on the Shore and in the Shallow Subtidal on the Isle of Man [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
The algal dominated communities immediately above and below the low-water spring level on a moderately exposed Manx shore were investigated by canopy removal experiments. Fucus serratus, Laminaria digitata and L. hyperborea were removed.

Global distribution of avian plumage coloration and patterning: the relative influence of climate, ecology, and sexual selection

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Animal coloration exhibits substantial biogeographic variation, reflecting complex adaptations to both abiotic and biotic environments. Although the evolutionary mechanisms underlying avian plumage coloration have been widely studied, geographic variation in plumage patterning has received far less attention.

Accuracy of a DTM derived from full-waveform laser scanning data under unstructured eucalypt forest: a case study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A Digital Terrain Model (DTM) is fundamental for extracting several forest canopy structure metrics from data acquired with small-footprint airborne laser scanning (ALS).

Spatial Variability of Shortwave Irradiance for Snowmelt in Forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The spatial variation of melt energy can influence snow cover depletion rates and in turn be influenced by the spatial variability of shortwave irradiance to snow.

Taxon‐dependent multisite species turnover in fragmented habitats: comparing zeta diversity across birds, butterflies, and cursorial hunting spiders

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Habitat fragmentation alters species diversity and reshapes community composition. However, conventional pairwise approaches to compositional variation (i.e. beta diversity metrics) do not explicitly characterize how species sharing or turnover change with the number of habitat patches.
