A remote sensing assessment index for urban ecological livability and its application
Geo-spatial Information Science, 2022 ABSTRACTRemote sensing provides us with an approach for the rapid identification and monitoring of spatiotemporal changes in the urban ecological environment at different scales. This study aimed to construct a remote sensing assessment index for urban ecological livability with continuous fine spatiotemporal resolution data from Landsat and MODIS to ...

Local forest structure variability increases resilience to wildfire in dry western U.S. coniferous forests. [PDF]
, 2020 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.
