Estimating water content from hyperspectral measurements for fire risk mapping

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2014
This paper shows the interest of laboratory hyperspectral measurements to estimate fuel moisture content for fire risk assessment. Measurements were obtained for two Mediterranean forest species over a controlled water stress experiment.

Spectral characterization of plant diversity in a biodiversity‐enriched oil palm plantation

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
How well can airborne imaging spectroscopy detect plant diversity in vertically complex agroforestry systems? We tested this in a biodiversity‐enriched oil palm plantation in Sumatra, Indonesia, using high‐resolution hyperspectral data. We calculated spectral alpha and beta diversity and compared them to field‐based plant diversity.

Successful management of euglycaemic diabetic ketoacidosis in a bexagliflozin‐treated cat (Feline)

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract A 9‐year‐old, spayed, female, domestic shorthair cat was presented with an acute onset of lethargy, vomiting and anorexia. The cat had a prior diagnosis of diabetes mellitus and was being managed with bexagliflozin, a sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitor.

Differential effects of environmental predictability on ungulate movement behavior in disparate ecosystems

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Increasing ecological perturbations resulting from global change processes are altering the environmental predictability (EP) of critical forage and water resources for wildlife. While research has furthered our understanding of how EP both underlies and directs animal movement, studies have mainly focused on relationships between EP and large‐scale ...

Internal physiological drivers of leaf development in trees: Understanding the relationship between non‐structural carbohydrates and leaf phenology

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant phenology is crucial for understanding plant growth and climate feedback. It affects canopy structure, surface albedo, and carbon and water fluxes. While the influence of environmental factors on phenology is well‐documented, the role of plant intrinsic factors ...

Microclimate refugia shape microclimatic niches and predict individual variability in post‐breeding migration in a partially migratory species

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The niche is characterized along a gradient of temperature and microclimate refugia. Individuals in breeding areas with low microclimate refugia availability are more likely to cover larger distances to post‐breeding areas, increasing exposure to risks.
