Physically Based Predictive Modelling of Archaeological Proxies Using Cropmarks

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cropmarks, as archaeological proxies, offer a valuable means of detecting buried sites through remote sensing. Yet, the scalability of such methods across varied archaeological contexts remains underexplored, and AI‐based modelling approaches are still in early stages.

Reliability of canopy photography for forest ecology and biodiversity studies

open access: yesEcological Indicators
Understory is a key component of forest biodiversity. The structure of the forest stand and the horizontal composition of the canopy play a major role on the light regime of the understory, which in turn affects the abundance and the diversity of the ...

Canopy soil bacterial communities altered by severing host tree limbs [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Trees of temperate rainforests host a large biomass of epiphytic plants, which are associated with soils formed in the forest canopy. Falling of epiphytic material results in the transfer of carbon and nutrients from the canopy to the forest floor.

Vegetation hot spot signatures from synergy of DSCOVR EPIC, Terra MISR, MODIS and geostationary sensors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
It has been widely recognized that the hotspot region in Bidirectional Reflectance Factors (BRF) of vegetated surfaces represents the most information-rich directions in the directional distribution of canopy reflected radiation.

Interception of the Fukushima reactor accident-derived137Cs, 134Cs and 131I by coniferous forest canopies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident resulted in extensive radioactive contamination of the surrounding forests. In this study, we analyzed fallout 137Cs, 134Cs, and 131I in rainwater, throughfall, and stemflow in coniferous forest ...

Key canopy traits drive forest productivity [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2012
Quantifying the mechanistic links between carbon fluxes and forest canopy attributes will advance understanding of leaf-to-ecosystem scaling and its potential application to assessing terrestrial ecosystem metabolism. Important advances have been made, but prior studies that related carbon fluxes to multiple canopy traits are scarce. Herein, presenting

The spread of non‐native species

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

The As and Bs of titi monkey linguistics: why emotional communication is not the enemy

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The alarm call sequences of titi monkeys (genera Plecturocebus, Callicebus and Cheracebus) have sparked important debates over whether they exhibit parallels with human language. Some researchers consider these sequences to involve both semantics and syntax, while others argue that the sequences convey semantic information without syntax.

Detecting Long-Term Urban Forest Cover Change and Impacts of Natural Disasters Using High-Resolution Aerial Images and LiDAR Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Urban forests provide ecosystem services; tree canopy cover is the basic quantification of ecosystem services. Ground assessment of the urban forest is limited; with continued refinement, remote sensing can become an essential tool for analyzing the ...
