Multiscale Fourier Landscape Pattern Indices For Landscape Ecology
A factor analysis of 67 landscape pattern metrics was performed to quantify the ability of landscape pattern metrics to explain land cover pattern, and to report individual landscape pattern metric values that are statistically independent.

FracL: A Tool for Characterizing the Fractality of Landscape Gradients from a New Perspective
The past several years have witnessed much progress in landscape ecology and fractal analysis. In landscape ecology, the gradient model of landscape patterns (i.e., landscape gradient) has emerged as a new operating paradigm, where most landscape metrics

Scaling effects on landscape metrics in alpine meadow on the central Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau
Small-scale patchiness is common in alpine meadow on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) and significantly affects ecological processes. The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) provides an effective way to monitor the small-scale patchiness at different spatial ...

Visibility graphs and landscape visibility analysis [PDF]
Visibility analysis based on viewsheds is one of the most frequently used GIS analysis tools. In this paper we present an approach to visibility analysis based on the visibility graph. A visibility graph records the pattern of mutual visibility relations

Landscape metrics as indicators of avian community structures – A state of the art review
In this state-of-the-art review, we investigate the use of landscape metrics in landscape ecology studies to predict structure of avian communities. We reviewed papers published in international peer-reviewed journals indexed by Web of Science Core, from
