Species composition on reclaimed ski runs compared with unseeded areas [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 2001 The cover of native and non-native introduced plants was compared between seeded (reclaimed) ski runs and adjacent or nearby unseeded (control) areas at a managed ski area in northern Arizona to determine the potential effects of revegetation efforts on plant species composition of the area. Although vegetative cover was similar, plant species richness

Parameter investigation for urban surface‐energy balance: A large‐eddy simulation study
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Large eddy simulation modelling is used to investigate the variation in surface‐energy balance (SEB) across an ensemble of morphometrically identical urban geometries. The geometries have the same plan‐area fraction, vegetated fraction, and frontal‐area index, but are unique in terms of building and green‐space layout.

Sliding Doors: Frame Uptake and Rejection by Learners in a Museum‐Based Climate Learning Experience
Science Education, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Science education efforts that support public understanding of modern climate change are critically needed. However, implementing climate‐related learning experiences can be challenging, as public audiences tend to experience a wide range of understandings of and emotions around the issue. In light of these challenges, many scholars have posed

Assessing habitat suitability for black grouse broods at the bioregional scale
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.The black grouse Lyrurus tetrix, a galliform species emblematic of the European Alps, is currently threatened by habitat change, particularly given the closure of heathland linked to the rising tree line at higher altitudes. The presence of heathlands in good ecological condition is, however, imperative for the species' reproduction.

Monitoring wildlife using long‐endurance solar‐electric UAVs
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.This report discusses the effectiveness of using small solar‐electric UAV (uncrewed aerial vehicles) for aerial wildlife monitoring. We review four years of aerial wildlife monitoring missions using a 5.5‐m wingspan, solar‐electric UAV that was equipped with a gimballed IR/RGB camera.

Dynamics of carving runs in alpine skiing. I.The basic centrifugal pendulum. [PDF]
Sports Biomechanics, 2019 We studied perfect carving turns of alpine skiing using the simple model of an inverted pendulum which is subject to the gravity force and the force mimicking the centrifugal force emerging in the turns. Depending on the turn speed the model describes two different regimes.
