In 2017, the New South Wales (NSW) Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH) initiated a state-wide mapping program, SeaBed NSW, which systematically acquires high-resolution (2–5 m cell size) multibeam echosounder (MBES) and marine LiDAR data along

ABSTRACT Empirical evidence of population demographic responses to environmental perturbations is a major knowledge gap for aquatic vertebrate populations. Extensive habitat alteration including channelization of headwater streams influences the habitat template on which small‐bodied fish are dependent to carry out distinct life stages and maintain or ...

Quality assessment of DEM derived from topographic maps for geomorphometric purposes
Digital elevation models (DEMs) play a significant role in geomorphological research. For geomorphologists reconstructing landform and drainage structure is frequently as important as elevation accuracy.

Extreme meteorological events and anthropogenic influences determine important variations in microbial community composition. To know the extent of these variations, it is necessary to delve deeper into the geogenic factors to be considered as a baseline.

The stream length-gradient (SL) index is widely used in geomorphological studies aimed at detecting knickzones, which are extensive along-stream deviations from the typical concave-up shape assumed for stream longitudinal profiles at steady-state ...

The proposed method better responds to the needs of detailed cartography improving the working scale (local and regional) representation; also roughness attributes facilitate the identification of geomorphological units, and the DEM generation method enhances terrain representation.

Seamounts are a prime example of an ecologically relevant marine landform. They are internationally recognized by the OSPAR commission as a threatened and/or declining habitat yet estimates of their distribution in Norwegian waters are not adequately ...

Uncertainties Related to Scale and Sampling Window Size in Defining Macro Landforms
This study focuses on the statistical significance of sampling window sizes, which are used to define macro landforms and the differences they cause in definitions.

Local variance for multi-scale analysis in geomorphometry. [PDF]
Increasing availability of high resolution Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) is leading to a paradigm shift regarding scale issues in geomorphometry, prompting new solutions to cope with multi-scale analysis and detection of characteristic scales.

Moose indifferent to canopy loss from forest disturbance by bark beetles
Moose showed strikingly similar patterns of habitat selection before and after widespread forest disturbance following an infestation of bark beetles. Our findings indicate that beetle‐kill does not appreciably alter habitat quality for moose and highlight the importance of riparian areas in sustaining moose as they contend with changing forests ...
