Comparison of Various Annual Land Cover Datasets in the Yellow River Basin
Remote Sensing, 2023 Accurate land cover (LC) datasets are the basis for global environmental and climate change studies. Recently, numerous open-source annual LC datasets have been created due to advances in remote sensing technology.

Diversification across a heterogeneous landscape
Evolution, 2016 Adaptation to contrasting environments across a heterogeneous landscape favors the formation of ecotypes by promoting ecological divergence. Patterns of fitness variation in the field can show whether natural selection drives local adaptation and ecotype formation.

Land, 2022 The usual approaches to describing and understanding ecological processes in a landscape use patch-mosaic models based on traditional landscape metrics. However, they do not consider that many of these processes cannot be observed without considering the

Advancing Texture Metrics to Model Landscape Heterogeneity [PDF]
IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020 We advance methods to study landscape heterogeneity and assess the suitability of these methods to detect boundary regions between land cover types. We employ 2nd-order texture metrics on continuous and on discrete vegetation data in North Eurasia and on a smaller region therein.

Seasonality and Landscape Composition Drive the Diversity of Pollen Collected by Managed Honey Bees
Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022 The western honey bee, Apis mellifera, is the most important and widespread managed pollinator species. Honey bee diet is based on nectar and pollen, and pollen diversity and composition, in particular, affect colony health and fitness.
