Modelling Distributions of Rove Beetles in Mountainous Areas Using Remote Sensing Data
Mountain ecosystems are biodiversity hotspots that are increasingly threatened by climate and land use/land cover changes. Long-term biodiversity monitoring programs provide unique insights into resulting adverse impacts on plant and animal species ...

Distribution of Snow and Maximum Snow Water Equivalent Obtained by LANDSAT Data and Degree Day Method [PDF]
Maximum snow water equivalence and snowcover distribution are estimated using several LANDSAT data taken in snowmelting season over a four year period. The test site is Okutadami-gawa Basin located in the central position of Tohoku-Kanto-Chubu District ...

High extinction risk of the endemic tree flora in a hyper‐diverse region of the Amazon
The rapid global loss of biodiversity, especially in the Neotropics, underscores the need to understand how deforestation impacts endemic plant species' extinction risk and conservation status. Due to limited ranges and habitat specialization, endemics are particularly Vulnerable.

Maize plays a key role in agricultural profitability and food security on six continents. Successful efforts to breed higher‐yielding maize varieties depend on replicated yield trials in many environments. Capturing in‐season data can help improve and accelerate the development of regionally adapted hybrids, but collecting these data can be impractical

Landsat 5 to be decommissioned [PDF]
After orbiting the planet more than 150,000 times since its launch in 1984, the Landsat 5 Earth observing satellite is being decommissioned due to the recent failure of a gyroscope, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) announced on 21 December. The 29‐year‐old satellite originally had an expected design life of 3 years.

Ground‐based Inventorying and Monitoring programs are crucial for documenting long‐term forest responses to global change pressures, though there is limited coordination among them. We call for building synergies between different Inventorying and Monitoring programs, as well as community science and stakeholder engagement, to expand the temporal and ...

Forestry digital twin with machine learning in Landsat 7 data [PDF]
Modeling forests using historical data allows for more accurately evolution analysis, thus providing an important basis for other studies. As a recognized and effective tool, remote sensing plays an important role in forestry analysis. We can use it to derive information about the forest, including tree type, coverage and canopy density. There are many

Cocoa‐driven deforestation threatens tropical forests, particularly in Côte d'Ivoire, the world's largest cocoa producer. This study examines the motivations behind cocoa cultivation in classified forests, the selection of retained tree species on farms, and the economic drivers of wooded lands conservation among farmers.

A probabilistic graphical model approach in 30 m land cover mapping with multiple data sources [PDF]
There is a trend to acquire high accuracy land-cover maps using multi-source classification methods, most of which are based on data fusion, especially pixel- or feature-level fusions. A probabilistic graphical model (PGM) approach is proposed in this research for 30 m resolution land-cover mapping with multi-temporal Landsat and MODerate Resolution ...
