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

open access: yesRemote 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 ...

Climate Crisis, Human Mobility and Security Challenges in the MENA Region: Implications for Sustainable Development and Regional Stability

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the interplay between climate change, violent conflict and forced migration in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), focusing on asylum flows to the European Union (EU). By integrating high‐resolution climate, conflict and socioeconomic data spanning 2000 to 2023, we develop a comprehensive empirical framework to ...

Two hearts that beat as one: Signals, narratives, and financing (less) novel ventures via equity crowdfunding

open access: yesStrategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Financial resource acquisition is crucial for ventures but hindered by uncertainty. While signaling mitigates this uncertainty, its effectiveness hinges on venture novelty and the narratives used to clarify embedded information. Adopting a configurational lens, we examine the interplay among novelty, signals, and narratives in

Vibrational Exfoliation of 2D Materials

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Vibrational energy folds, fractures and exfoliates atomically and molecularly thin materials. Combining experimentation and computational methods, this unique vibrational synthesis pathway is revealed. This process overcomes barriers of existing approaches by processing 1000 g/L dispersions without loss in yield.

Breaking Inversion Symmetry via Vanadium Coordination Engineering in Bismuth Vanadium Selenites

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Vanadium coordination engineering induces symmetry breaking in bismuth selenites by transforming symmetry‐compensated VO6/VO5F units into directionally aligned VO5 polyhedra. The resulting non‐antiparallel vanadyl arrangement eliminates dipole cancellation and stabilizes a polar noncentrosymmetric framework with nonlinear optical activity.
