Mapping recent timber harvest activity in a temperate forest using single date airborne LiDAR surveys and machine learning: lessons for conservation planning

GIScience & Remote Sensing
Effective planning for natural resource management and wildlife conservation requires detailed information on vegetation structure at landscape scales and how structure is influenced by land-use practices. In many forested landscapes, the largest impacts

Environmental Perspectives in the Overstory by Richard Powers

BODHI International Journal of Research in Humanities, Arts and Science
Out of nowhere, trees begin speaking through human lives in Richard Powers’s The Overstory. Not merely a tale, it unsettles your usual view of where we fit among living things. Following this thread, attention turns to core green philosophies hidden beneath the surface - deep ecology takes root here, alongside ecofeminism's quiet strength.

Comparing the abilities of traditional airborne and UAS lidar for mapping low-lying vegetation density across temperate forest types

GIScience & Remote Sensing
Accurate mapping of understory vegetation is critical for applications ranging from wildlife habitat and biodiversity monitoring to fire behavior modeling and ecosystem carbon accounting. Lidar offers unique potential for quantifying subcanopy vegetation

Klimata pārmaiņas Ričarda Pouersa romānā "The Overstory"

, 2022
The paper studies the climate change phenomenon in Richard Powers’ novel The Overstory to analyse it from the ecocritical perspective. The methods of this study include theoretical research of literature on climate change, its portrayal in fiction and ecocriticism, as well as empirical study (close reading and ecocritical analysis).

The Overstory (2018) : S'enforester avec Richard Powers

S'enforester. Recherches buissonnières
Proposer aux femmes et aux hommes de « s’enforester », pour tenter de remédier aux « extinctions d’expérience de la nature » (Robert Michael Pyle) est l’un des objectifs que l’Atelier d’écologie politique de Toulouse s’est fixé, pour contribuer de façon originale au partage des savoirs.

Eco-Ekphrasis in Richard Powers’s The Overstory and Bewilderment

Ekphrasis. Images, Cinema, Theory, Media
If in antiquity the term ekphrasis was used to denote a speech that stimulates mental visualization, then in contemporary discourse, ekphrasis refers to a wide array of intermedial phenomena, fromdescriptions of paintings and sculpture to the integration of film, photography, and digital media in literaryworks.
