Forest Bird Abundance Is Linked to the Interactions Between Forest Characteristics and Species Ecological Traits: Implications for Forest Management

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Using extensive bird monitoring data from Czechia and detailed forest and species trait information, this study found strong interactions between bird traits—especially migration distance and habitat specialization—and forest characteristics. These findings highlight the need for targeted forest management strategies, such as coppicing or old‐growth ...

Process Modelling, Web Services and Geoprocessing [PDF]

, 2014
Process modelling has always been an important part of research in generalisation. In the early days this would take the form of a static sequence of generalisation actions, but currently the focus is on modelling much more complex processes, capable of generalising geographic data into various maps according to specific user requirements.
