Interferometric SAR Coherence Models for Characterization of Hemiboreal Forests Using TanDEM-X Data
Remote Sensing, 2016 In this study, four models describing the interferometric coherence of the forest vegetation layer are proposed and compared with the TanDEM-X data. Our focus is on developing tools for hemiboreal forest height estimation from single-pol interferometric ...

Coupling Avicennia tree architecture to radar backscatter models for estimating mangrove forest biomass [PDF]
, 2004 The understanding of mangrove ecosystems functioning requires techniques allowing their forest structure and forest biomass to be assessed. Among them, radar measurements have demonstrated powerful capabilities that, however, must be validated ...

Biomass estimation as a function of vertical forest structure and forest height. Potential and limiations for remote sensing (radar and LiDAR) [PDF]
, 2011 Forest biomass stock, spatial distribution and dynamics are unknown parameters for many regions of the world. Today’s information is largely based on ground measurements on a plot basis without coverage in many remote regions that are fundamental for the

Geometric accuracy analysis of worlddem in relation to AW3D30, srtm and aster GDEM2 [PDF]
, 2017 In a project area close to Istanbul the quality of WorldDEM, AW3D30, SRTM DSM and ASTER GDEM2 have been analyzed in relation to a reference aerial LiDAR DEM and to each other. The random and the systematic height errors have been separated.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Fast‐acting hydrogel seals bleeding wounds as the illustrated injectable, pH‐responsive network rapidly gels in situ to stop hemorrhage, adhere strongly to wet tissue, and release antibiotics in a controlled, pH‐dependent manner. The material withstands high pressures, shows excellent biocompatibility, and degrades safely, offering a versatile platform

Intelligent Acousto‐Electrical Metamaterials (IAM) for Sound Source Detection
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Our proposed metamaterial concept enables sound source detection using a single material, in contrast to conventional arrays that require dozens or even hundreds of transducers. We show that the coupled acoustic–vibrational–electrical responses in piezoelectric metamaterials give rise to topology‐governed charge transport, producing distinct voltage ...

ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABLES ASSOCIATED WITH INVASIVE GLOSSY BUCKTHORN (FRANGULA ALNUS MILL.) AND INDIRECT CONTROL STRATEGIES FOR FOREST MANAGERS [PDF]
, 2016 Glossy buckthorn (Frangula alnus Mill.) is one of the most prominent non-native invasive plant species affecting New England forests. It quickly invades a forest and can create a dense understory effectively altering the species composition and dynamics
