Geoarchaeological site documentation and analysis of 3D data derived by terrestrial laser scanning [PDF]
Terrestrial laser scanning was conducted to document and analyse sites of geoarchaeological interest in Jordan, Egypt and Spain. In those cases, the terrestrial laser scanner LMS-Z420i from Riegl was used in combination with an accurate RTK-GPS for ...

When wolves aren't enough: revisiting trophic cascades in northern Wisconsin
Elimination of top predators has allowed large herbivores to flourish in many terrestrial ecosystems, transforming food webs and ecosystem functions. Restoration of large predator communities is hoped to reverse negative effects of this trophic downgrading, but evidence for such effects is elusive.

Understanding how climate change impacts the plant life cycle is critical for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services. Our findings suggest that Terminalia paniculata Roth, a common tropical deciduous tree species in the Western Ghats, is now flowering and fruiting at more scattered times than it used to in the past.

Balancing tracks and trees: Assessing railroad impact on Brazilian biodiversity
The Brazilian West–East Integration Railway (FIOL) aims to boost the national economy by improving commodity transport; however, it crosses three of Brazil's most biodiverse and fragile regions: the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Using digitised plant records and land‐use analyses, our study reveals significant vegetation loss within the ...

We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

An In-Depth UAS-PPK Georeferencing Analysis at Different Flight Heights for an Urban Area
Acquiring UAS images in urban environments presents a significant importance for various applications but presents challenges, particularly with flight missions and the reliability of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal.

ABSTRACT Soil profiles are the primary field evidence from which pedogenesis, soil classification and land‐use effects are interpreted, yet their availability remains uneven across climates and land‐cover contexts. Here, we analyse the World Soil Information Service (WoSIS) 2023 snapshot together with Copernicus Global Land Cover 2015 and the global ...

ABSTRACT The ‘Ten‐Year Fishing Ban’ policy in the Yangtze River Basin has compelled over 230,000 fishermen to cease fishing and transition to alternative livelihoods, making their post‐ban livelihood development critical to the policy's long‐term effectiveness. Drawing on household survey data from Hubei and Hunan provinces—which account for nearly 40%
