UAV data and deep learning: efficient tools to map ant mounds and their ecological impact

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation
High‐resolution unoccupied aerial vehicle (UAVs) data have alleviated the mismatch between the scale of ecological processes and the scale of remotely sensed data, while machine learning and deep learning methods allow new avenues for quantification in ...

Large herbivores on permafrost— a pilot study of grazing impacts on permafrost soil carbon storage in northeastern Siberia [PDF]

open access: yes
The risk of carbon emissions from permafrost is linked to an increase in ground temperature and thus in particular to thermal insulation by vegetation, soil layers and snow cover.
