Deep Learning for Satellite‐Based Forest Disturbance Monitoring: Recent Advances and Challenges
Overview of key research challenges in forest disturbance monitoring, including the detection of disturbances of varying severity, the attribution of disturbance agents, and the development of models capable of generalizing across regions. ABSTRACT Climate change and land use pressures are intensifying forest disturbances in many world regions, as ...

The Decline of a Caldera‐Filling Glacier at Volcán Sollipulli, Chile
Abstract Southern Andean glaciers have undergone fast retreat in recent decades. This results in reduced freshwater storage, contribution to sea‐level rise, and locally to the formation of glacial lakes, that may pose the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs).

ABSTRACT Objective Delirium is common and serious among older adults in emergency departments (EDs) yet screening often falls short of national expectations. This study evaluated current delirium screening practices in a metropolitan ED and identified barriers and enablers to implementing screening in line with the Australian Delirium Clinical Care ...

Genome-Enhanced Detection and Identification (GEDI) of plant pathogens
Plant diseases caused by fungi and Oomycetes represent worldwide threats to crops and forest ecosystems. Effective prevention and appropriate management of emerging diseases rely on rapid detection and identification of the causal pathogens. The increase in genomic resources makes it possible to generate novel genome-enhanced DNA detection assays that ...
