Landscape Environmental Monitoring [PDF]

, 2011
Landscape pattern is of primary interest to landscape ecologists and landscape metrics are used to quantify landscape pattern. Calculation of landscape metrics is commonly conducted on completely mapped areas based on remotely sensed data.

ORDNA: Deep‐learning‐based ordination for raw environmental DNA samples

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding has revolutionized biodiversity monitoring, offering non‐invasive tools to assess ecosystem health. The complexity of eDNA metabarcoding data poses major challenges for conventional ordination methods in ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Assessing Biodiversity in Agricultural Landscapes Through Drone‐Based Environmental DNA Sampling

Ecology and Evolution
As agricultural intensification expands globally, there is an increasing concern about the impact of food production on global biodiversity. Biodiversity decline is problematic as species provide a wealth of benefits, including pollination, soil ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Many Perceptions, One Landscape [PDF]

, 2014
This paper relates an attempt to develop an integrated understanding of landscape values in the Akaroa Basin, in the South Island of New Zealand, as part of the author's PhD research. This case study sought to understand the landscape through the eyes of

Robot‐Aided Measurement of Insect Diversity on Vegetation Using Environmental DNA

Ecology and Evolution
Traditional methods of biodiversity monitoring are often logistically challenging, time‐consuming, require experienced experts on species identification, and sometimes include destruction of the targeted specimens.

Tephra data from varved lakes of the Last Glacial–Interglacial Transition: towards a global inventory and better chronologies on the Varved Sediments Database (VARDA) [PDF]

Earth System Science Data
The Varved Sediments Database (VARDA) was launched in 2020 and aimed to establish a community database for annually resolved chronological archives with their associated high-resolution proxy records.

The Multidisciplinary Approach in the Study of Landscape Evolution: The Fluvial Capture of the San Donato Creek (Gubbio, Central Italy), an Example of Hydrological Regime and Hydrogeological Risk Changes

Land, 2023
Historical maps, especially those at a small scale and rich in detail (e.g., the old “Cadastres”), represent an exceptionally important tool for understanding the recent historical evolution of landscapes.

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...
