The retrieval of land surface albedo in rugged terrain
, 2012 Land surface albedo may be derived from the satellite data through the estimation of a bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) model and angular integration. However many BRDF models do not consider explicitly the topography.

Gravity Terrain Effect of the Seafloor Topography in Taiwan [PDF]
, 2007 Gravity terrain correction is used to compensate for the gravitational effects of the topography residual to the Bouguer plate. The seafloor topography off the eastern offshore of Taiwan is extremely rugged, and the depth of the sea bottom could be ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Eco‐Industrial Parks (EIPs) are critical infrastructure for transitioning to sustainable production and consumption patterns, enabling resource efficiency through industrial symbiosis. However, the success of these circular ecosystems depends heavily on strategic location planning that balances conflicting economic, environmental, and social ...

Improving LAI retrieval in complex mountains with implicit mutual terrain irradiance
Trees, Forests and PeopleLeaf area index (LAI), a key indicator of vegetation canopy structure, is vital to regional ecological assessment and environmental monitoring. However, rugged terrain can induce the radiation distortion recorded by senses, thus resulting in substantial ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Colorado's geologic, pedologic, topographic, hydrological, and climatic contrasts create strong but under‐synthesized opportunities for sustainable agritourism. This review investigates how geodiversity, and the broader environmental heterogeneity within which it operates, can be used to diversify farm income, strengthen place‐based visitor ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Risk management has evolved to analyze risks in a systemic way, integrating local knowledge with the abstract concept of resilience, which is now an imperative for vulnerable and exposed communities. However, existing decision‐support tools are mainly focused on technical‐functional aspects and, although based on rigorous and scientific ...

Suitable habitat of Himalayan wolf in Upper Mustang, Annapurna Conservation Area, Nepal
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Decades ago, the Himalayan wolf Canis lupus chanco, a genetically distinct sub‐species of the gray wolf Canis lupus, faced persecution by local communities in the Nepalese Himalayas. Recently, wolf populations have returned and recolonized, sparking concerns about conflicts over livestock depredation, and emphasizing the urgent need for comprehensive ...

How to stay wild in a highly domesticated landscape? Spatiotemporal behaviour of wolves in Germany
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Wild animals can adapt to the increasing presence of humans by either becoming accustomed to it or by avoiding humans by spatiotemporal separation. The return of the wolf to the German lowlands raised the opportunity to study wolf behaviour in one of the most densely populated and fragmented countries in Europe, in an area where topography offers no ...
