Ground‐based robotic remote sensing for standardized biodiversity monitoring in coastal habitats

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Illustrated workflow of the proposed citizen‐to‐robot monitoring pipeline: (i) expert‐validated citizen observations are translated into AI models, (ii) deployed on a ground‐based robotic platform for proximal sensing of coastal dune habitats, (iii) enabling standardized detection of ecological targets (e.g., Pancratium maritimum & Brithys crini), and (

Reversed impacts by specialist parasitoids and generalist predators may explain a phase lag in moth cycles : a novel hypothesis and preliminary field tests

open access: yes, 2013
Among cyclic populations of herbivores, inter-specific temporal synchrony has been attributed to both climatic factors and trophic interactions. In northern Europe, winter and autumnal moths undergo regular 9–11 year population cycles.

The Path to Sustainability: Apricot Growers' Willingness to Adopt Agroecological Practises in Malatya, Türkiye

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global food system faces sustainability, safety, and equity challenges. Agroecological practises offer solutions through sustainable production and resource conservation. This study examines apricot producers' willingness to adopt agricultural practises in Malatya, Türkiye, focusing on their attitudes, behaviours and the factors ...

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

Global ‘sweet enemies’ : the EU-Russia security dilemma

open access: yes, 2015
This dissertation tells the story of conflict in the EU-Russia relationship. What makes this conflict definitive of a ‘security dilemma’, it is argued, is the unintended event of political violence in-between these neighbouring global powers.

Tree cover and geographic origin of tree species drive bird functional groups in urban environments

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban trees provide habitat and resources for wild species in cities and support biodiversity provision of ecosystem services, among which insect control is particularly relevant. Predators of insects are promoted by the presence of trees and, in turn, may enhance biosecurity of the trees.
