Integrating indigenous crops in agroforestry systems: Lesser yam and teak mixed systems are more profitable than monocultures in Indonesia

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Major staple crops are often introduced and cultivated in monocultures. Yams are staple crops native to the majority of low‐ and middle‐income countries and can provide an alternative to introduced staple crops. We showed that lesser yams cultivated together with teak trees (planted at the border of the farm) are more profitable than lesser yam ...

Silviculture in African moist forests : do we have new answers to old questions? [PDF]

, 2011
The silviculture of African tropical moist forests has a long history punctuated with (few) successes and (many) failures. The European foresters in charge of managing forests in the African colonies realized early - e.g. 1900 in Nigeria - that they were

Strict Forest Reserve Research in the Margin of the Carpathians, the Vár-hegy Case-Study [PDF]

, 2013
Sixteen forest reserves are situated in the northern part of Hungary which belongs to the Carpathian region according to EURAC delimitation (Ruffini et al. 2006). These Hungarian forest reserves expand the natural forest remnant/forest reserve net of the

On the compatibility of single‐scan terrestrial LiDAR with digital photogrammetry and field inventory metrics of vegetation structure in forest and agroforestry landscapes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The single‐scan approach to terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and the self‐terrain‐normalized form of drone‐based digital aerial photogrammetry (DAP) offer practical options for rapid assessment of the vegetation structure in tropical landscapes.

Partial cutting in a dry temperate forest ecosystem alleviates growth loss under drought

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022
The increasing frequency of severe drought and heat events under climate change is a major cause for concern for forest productivity and survival.

X-ray based tree ring analyses [PDF]

, 2004
In this thesis, two x-ray based dendro-analyses (batch-wise microdensitometry and energy dispersive x-ray fluorescence (EDXRF)) and the conditions under which these methods could be used on the two typical boreal conifers Norway spruce (Picea abies (L ...

Historical remote sensing highlights long‐term persistence of Emperor Penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) colonies

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Remote sensing can reveal population dynamics of Antarctic penguin colonies. In this study, we analyze emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) guano stains in remote sensing imagery and discover colony presence predating known records for 18 colonies across Antarctica.

Informing hydrogeological models with remotely sensed evapotranspiration

Frontiers in Water, 2022
Remotely sensed evapotranspiration (ET) rates can provide an additional constraint on the calibration of groundwater models beyond typically-used water table (WT) level observations.
