Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective

Oikos, EarlyView.
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

Mechanisms and impacts of future plant invasions: research agendas and management needs under disruptive social‐ecological change scenarios

Oikos, EarlyView.
No‐analogue futures are characteristic of the Anthropocene, but how global change, and societies' responses, will affect plant invasions remains unclear. Conducting research now to address future needs is crucial for guiding invasion management and policy.

A Framework for Use of Wireless Sensor Networks in Forest Fire Detection and Monitoring [PDF]

Computers, Environment and Urban Systems, 2012
Forest fires are one of the main causes of environmental degradation nowadays. Current surveillance systems for forest fires lack in supporting real-time monitoring of every point of a region at all times and early detection of fire threats.

Observer network and forest fire detection

Information Fusion, 2011
Future Generation Communication Environment (FGCA) is defined as advanced communication and networking environment where all applications and services are focused on users. In this paper an example of such an application is described where the "user" is the natural environment and the goal is the environment protection.

Smart Forests: fire detection service

2018 IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC), 2018
Smart Forest is a concept derived from the Internet of Things (IoT) and defines sections of a forest where remote sensing is applied to collect data about environmental conditions. One of the main objectives of Smart Forests is to detect wild fire at early stages.

Modeling and simulation of forest fire detection and fire spread

2017 2nd International Conference on Advanced Robotics and Mechatronics (ICARM), 2017
Fire spread model is beneficial to give suggestion for preventing from and fighting against forest fire. Factors affecting the quality of the model include accuracy, timeliness, and costing. In this paper, triangular fuzzy number is defined first, then build an AHP model based on triangular fuzzy number (F-AHP), and recognize the weight of the three ...

A Forest Fire Detection System

2013
Forest fires cause immeasurable damages to indispensable resources for human survival, destroy the balance of earth ecology, and worst of all they frequently cost human lives. In recent years, early fire detection systems have emerged to provide monitoring and prevention of the disasterous forest fires.

Satellite-based forest fire detection for fire control in boreal forests

International Journal of Remote Sensing, 1997
Forest fires in large sparsely populated areas in the boreal forest zone are difficult to detect by ground based means. Satellites can be a viable source of information to augment air-borne reconnaissance. The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) sensor aboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) satellites has been ...

Deep Learning Applied to Forest Fire Detection

2020 IEEE International Symposium on Signal Processing and Information Technology (ISSPIT), 2020
Nowadays, fires in forest areas are very frequent, mainly caused by climate change and bad practices by the people who live in these areas. In the world the climatic "El Nino" phenomenon has intensified in recent years, increasing the frequency of forest fires, due to high temperatures and prolonged periods of drought that occur.
