Modelling fire occurrence at regional scale. Does vegetation phenology matter? [PDF]
Through its influence on biomass production, climate controls fuel availability affecting at the same time fuel moisture and flammability, which are the main determinants for fire ignition and propagation.

Local forest structure variability increases resilience to wildfire in dry western U.S. coniferous forests. [PDF]
A 'resilient' forest endures disturbance and is likely to persist. Resilience to wildfire may arise from feedback between fire behaviour and forest structure in dry forest systems.

Assessing water availability in Mediterranean regions affected by water conflicts through MODIS data time series analysis [PDF]
Water scarcity is a widespread problem in arid and semi-arid regions such as the western Mediterranean coastal areas. The irregularity of the precipitation generates frequent droughts that exacerbate the conflicts among agriculture, water supply and ...

Winter Conditions Influence Biological Responses of Migrating Hummingbirds
Conserving biological diversity given ongoing environmental changes requires the knowledge of how organisms respond biologically to these changes; however, we rarely have this information. This data deficiency can be addressed with coordinated monitoring

Bayesian Method for Building Frequent Landsat-Like NDVI Datasets by Integrating MODIS and Landsat NDVI [PDF]
Studies related to vegetation dynamics in heterogeneous landscapes often require Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) datasets with both high spatial resolution and frequent coverage, which cannot be satisfied by a single sensor due to technical limitations.

Cutting Through the Green: A Case for Grassland Archaeology Using UAV Multispectral Data
ABSTRACT Advances in low‐altitude remote sensing are needed to improve the effectiveness of archaeological prospection in the Netherlands. The geomorphological situation and land use history make applying various remote sensing and geophysical technologies particularly challenging.

Efficiency of Variable Rate Application of Nitrogen Fertilizers Using Artificial Intelligence Model
Introduction. Winter wheat is a key grain crop, the productivity of which is largely determined by optimal nitrogen nutrition. Optimization of nitrogen nutrition for winter wheat in modern conditions of a large agroholding requires variable rate ...
