Gradients in urban material composition: A new concept to map cities with spaceborne imaging spectroscopy data [PDF]
To understand processes in urban environments, such as urban energy fluxes or surface temperature patterns, it is important to map urban surface materials. Airborne imaging spectroscopy data have been successfully used to identify urban surface materials

ABSTRACT The re‐emergence of water in dry stream reaches affects streamwater chemistry due to the flushing of sediment and nutrients from previously dry channels and the increased connectivity between hillslopes and streams. Although these processes have been studied at the reach scale, field data on stream network dynamics and hydrochemistry at the ...

The significance of late anthropological collections [PDF]
Late medieval anthropological materials are rarely subjected to scientific research. The authors of this work attempt to demonsrate the importance of such investigations. Despite a rather large number of writen sources, late anthropological materials can

Population viability of the long‐lived orchid Gymnadenia conopsea increased with population size, but not with genetic diversity. Larger populations had higher and more stable adult survival, suggesting favourable habitats that buffer effects of climatic variation.

Parsimonious Mahalanobis Kernel for the Classification of High Dimensional Data [PDF]
The classification of high dimensional data with kernel methods is considered in this article. Exploit- ing the emptiness property of high dimensional spaces, a kernel based on the Mahalanobis distance is proposed.

Abstract Effectively forecasting and communicating flood hazards at national or continental scales is critical to reducing impacts of flooding. Yet, it remains a challenge due to the predominance of ungauged catchments in often complex and steep terrain. We present the development, communication, and evaluation of a national flood awareness system, the

Removal of Sea Lettuce, Ulva spp., in Estuaries to Improve the Environments for Invertebrates, Fish, Wading Birds, and Eelgrass, Zostera marina [PDF]
Mats (biomasses) of macroalgae, i.e. Ulva spp., Enteromorpha spp., Graciolaria spp., and Cladophora spp., have increased markedly over the past 50 years, and they cover much larger areas than they once did in many estuaries of the world.

Thermoregulation and diurnal roost selection of boreal bats during pre‐hibernation period
Living in a seasonal environment poses challenges for small mammals, such as bats, reliant on insects as their primary food source. Bats may adeptly navigate these energetic challenges by reducing their metabolism and body temperature, entering a state of torpor.

ABSTRACT Aim Seed dispersal plays a key role in shaping the distribution and genetic complexity of seagrass populations and affects their resilience capacity under disturbance. The endemic seagrass Posidonia oceanica is a key component of Mediterranean coastal ecosystems, but knowledge about movement ecology in this species is limited, especially ...
