Peck or pass? Individual-level testing of a bird-repellent seed coating. [PDF]
Using sequential unique‐choice tests on an urban population of ringed carrion crows, we show that black pepper oleoresin‐treated maize seeds were avoided, while color alone had no deterrent effect. Abstract Background Carrion crows (Corvus corone) are a major depredating species of spring crops across European agroecosystems, especially during sowing ...

Mapping snow depth in open alpine terrain from stereo satellite imagery [PDF]
To date, there is no definitive approach to map snow depth in mountainous areas from spaceborne sensors. Here, we examine the potential of very-high-resolution (VHR) optical stereo satellites to this purpose. Two triplets of 0.70 m resolution images were

Evolution of Ossoue Glacier (French Pyrenees) since the end of the Little Ice Age [PDF]
Little is known about the fluctuations of the Pyrenean glaciers. In this study, we reconstructed the evolution of Ossoue Glacier (42°46' N, 0.45 km2), which is located in the central Pyrenees, from the Little Ice Age (LIA) onwards. To do so, length,

Mapping tree diversity in the tropical forest region of Chocó-Colombia
Understanding spatial patterns of diversity in tropical forests is indispensable for their sustainable use and conservation. Recent studies have reported relationships between forest structure and α -diversity. While tree α -diversity is difficult to map
