Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...

Journal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.LamelODF is a MATLAB‐based toolbox aimed at simplifying the automated extraction of orientation distribution functions from 2D X‐ray diffraction data of lamellar minerals in transmission mode. It accommodates both laboratory and synchrotron data formats, providing an integrated pipeline from raw data to spatially resolved textural maps, enabling robust

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.

Real‐Time Conformal Maps and Parameterizations
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract We present a simple algorithm to conformally map between two simple and bounded planar domains based on the concept of harmonic measure, which is a conformal invariant. With suitable preprocessing, the algorithm is fast enough to compute all possible conformal maps (having three real degrees of freedom) between the two domains in real time in

A Survey of Methods for Constructing 3D Urban Models From Point Clouds
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.The survey outlines a general process for constructing 3D models from point clouds and categorizes the methods based on their use of templates, basic surface primitives, hybrid approaches, or linear primitives. Additionally, the survey reviews the datasets and benchmarks that are essential for testing and training the developed methods.

Piles of Cubes, Monotone Path Polytopes and Hyperplane Arrangements
, 1997 Monotone path polytopes arise as a special case of the construction of fiber polytopes, introduced by Billera and Sturmfels. A simple example is provided by the permutahedron, which is a monotone path polytope of the standard unit cube. The permutahedron

The Complexity of Guarding Monotone Polygons
, 2012 A polygon P is x-monotone if any line orthogonal to the x-axis has a simply connected intersection with P. A set G of points inside P or on the boundary of P is said to guard the polygon if every point inside P or on the boundary of P is seen by a point in G. An interior guard can lie anywhere inside or on the boundary of the polygon. Using a reduction

Handling Out‐of‐Sample Areas to Estimate the Unemployment Rate at Local Labour Market Areas in Italy
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary Unemployment rate estimates for small areas are used to efficiently support the distribution of services and the allocation of resources, grants and funding. A Fay–Herriot type model is the most used tool to obtain these estimates. Under this approach out‐of‐sample areas require some synthetic estimates. As the geographical context is extremely
