Forest Stand Structure and Primary Production in relation to Ecosystem Development, Disturbance, and Canopy Composition [PDF]
, 2016 Temperate forests are complex ecosystems that sequester carbon (C) in biomass. C storage is related to ecosystem-scale forest structure, changing over succession, disturbance, and with community composition.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Monitoring forest recovery from disturbances at scale requires tracking tree dynamics, yet traditional ground‐based approaches are resource‐intensive. We present a pipeline to parameterize integral projection models (IPMs) using LiDAR data and hyperspectral‐based species maps to assess post‐fire recovery across large, forested areas at the Caribou ...

Getting it Right: Lessons Learned in Applying a Critical Artefact Approach [PDF]
, 2009 “Critical artefacts”, the products of critical design (Dunne 1999), prompt reflection rather than satisfy obvious user needs. The author is developing an instrumental use of critical artefacts as part of a human-centred design process.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Temperate fens with only incipient, subtle signs of deterioration can be reliably identified using Sentinel‐2 and aerial imagery, which sensitively detect early productivity‐related structural changes. Abstract Small temperate fens rank among the most endangered habitats in temperate Europe.

The Lost Art Project exhibition documentation [PDF]
Shaghayegh Cyrous, a visual artist from Tehran, Iran initiated the Lost Art Project upon moving to the San Francisco Bay Area in 2012. Feeling lost after moving halfway across the globe, she began the project as a way to build connections and allow ...

Accomplishing Ethics‐Work as a Generic Social Process
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.Existing systems of university research ethics are often criticized by those in the qualitative research tradition. A common thread is that ethics cannot be fully anticipated before the research begins, as is expected by most institutional review boards.

Rug pull detection on decentralized exchange using transaction data
Blockchain: Research and ApplicationsCryptocurrency has transformed finance and investment, with platforms like Uniswap facilitating billions of dollars in trades. However, malicious smart contracts and scam tokens have led to significant financial losses for decentralized finance (DeFi ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Infectious diseases are commonly cited as significant contributors to wildlife population declines. It is, therefore, important to investigate the extent to which tools designed to mitigate the effects of infectious diseases explain wildlife responses to habitat management.

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

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 ...
