Adapting the COASTGUARD shoreline detection workflow to macrotidal estuaries: a case study in the Musquash Estuary Marine Protected Area

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Tidal range, diverse land-cover conditions, and complex intertidal topography make accurately monitoring estuarine shoreline change difficult. This study extends the COASTGUARD workflow from traditional open coastline applications to complex, macrotidal ...

Mapping of Cold-Water Coral Carbonate Mounds Based on Geomorphometric Features: An Object-Based Approach

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
Cold-water coral reefs are rich, yet fragile ecosystems found in colder oceanic waters. Knowledge of their spatial distribution on continental shelves, slopes, seamounts and ridge systems is vital for marine spatial planning and conservation.

Unlocking ground-based imagery for habitat mapping

open access: yesTrends in Ecology & Evolution
Fine-grained environmental data across large extents are needed to resolve the processes that impact species communities from local to global scales. Ground-based images (GBIs) have the potential to capture habitat complexity at biologically relevant spatial and temporal resolutions.

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

Chalk grassland mapping in Surrey County using remote sensing and citizen science data: a random forest approach

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Remote Sensing
Chalk grassland is a highly biodiverse but fragmented priority habitat in Europe, and its conservation is constrained by the lack of fine-scale, up-to-date habitat maps.

Interactions between maternal provisioning and natural selection on seed mass fluctuate across heat waves

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Changing climates are leading to more frequent and severe heat waves, potentially threatening plant populations. Both acclimation to stress and selection for heat‐escape or heat‐resistance phenotypes occur during heat waves. However, plastic responses and selection do not necessarily interact cohesively—even producing trait responses ...

Not all drivers hit alike: A new heuristic method integrating habitat requirements into drivers impact mapping

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Identifying where and how anthropogenic drivers affect biodiversity is essential for effective conservation and restoration planning. Drivers impact mapping is an important tool to achieve this goal.
