Techniques for Classifying Seabed Morphology and Composition on a Subtropical-Temperate Continental Shelf

Geosciences, 2019
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

Population Dynamics of Northern Pearl Dace Margariscus nachtriebi in Anthropogenically Altered Headwater Streams of the Nebraska Sandhills Ecoregion

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1396-1410, July 2026.
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 ...

Geodiversity as a Driver of Soil Microbial Community Diversity and Adaptation in a Mediterranean Landscape

Land
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.

Mapped polygon pattern geomorphometry from HRSC-AX, 2009, Adventdalen, Svalbard

, 2020
Polygonal systems formed by thermal contraction cracking are complex landscape features widespread in terrestrial periglacial regions. The manner in which cracking occurs is controlled by various environmental factors and determines dimension, shape, and

Seamounts and related topographic highs – automated mapping in support of sustainable ocean management, Norway

Frontiers in Earth Science
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 ...

Semiautomated classification of units in volcanic terrain based on three morphometric attributes derived from a digital elevation model (DEM)

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
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.

Moose indifferent to canopy loss from forest disturbance by bark beetles

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 4, May 2026.
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 ...

Assessing multifunctional mountain landscape in an Eastern European framework

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
The research introduces the Biocultural Resilience Index (BRI), a novel tool for assessing multifunctional landscape sustainability. By integrating biological, cultural, and socio‐economic indicators, the BRI identifies vulnerable areas and informs strategies for sustainable management.

Automated Feature Extraction and Classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets in the Puck Lagoon via Multisensor Remote Sensing

Archaeological Prospection, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 397-421, April/June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents a strong framework for the detection and classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets (SCHA) in shallow marine environments using the integration of multibeam echosounder and airborne LiDAR bathymetry with object‐based image analysis and fuzzy logic–based classification.
