Analysis of Polarimetric GNSS-R Airborne Data as a Function of Land Use

IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Letters, 2023
In recent years, GNSS-R data have shown great potential in monitoring and characterizing the states of continental and ocean surfaces. Numerous studies have also demonstrated the potential of GNSS-R polarimetry, showing high precision for the estimation of surface properties such as vegetation, soil moisture, and flooded areas.

DigiChrom: A Domain Ontology for Semantic Representation of Trivalent Chromium Platings and Its Large Language Model‐Based Alignment With Multiple Mid‐Level Ontologies

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Digitalizing electroplating requires both domain knowledge and interoperability. This work introduces PlatOn, a domain ontology for trivalent chromium plating and coating characterization, and a hybrid pipeline that aligns it to a mid‐level reference ontology by combining eight similarity metrics with language model reasoning. Expert‐validated mappings

Land‐Use Impacts on Plant Functional Diversity Throughout Europe

Global Ecology and Biogeography
ABSTRACT Aim Global biodiversity loss resulting from anthropogenic land‐use activities is a pressing concern, requiring precise assessments of impacts at large spatial extents. Existing models mainly focus on species richness and abundance, lacking insights into ecological mechanisms and ...

Self‐Cleaning Sensor Surfaces for Long‐Term Environmental Monitoring

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Long‐term use of unattended outdoor sensors without soiling or biofouling is achieved through generation of a micro‐ and nanorough cuvette surface by combing hydrophobic nanoparticles with fluorinated polymers, crosslinked and surface‐attached through CHic chemistry. The coating demonstrates self‐cleaning behavior and prolonged outdoor stability, which

Utilisation of quantitative assessment of all-societal forest functions in landscape and land-use planning

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2008
Considering that forests are the important segment of the natural and human environment, their use in landscape should be highly controlled. Practical solving of this topic asked for the use of the geographic information system (GIS) for its wide ...
