This study demonstrates that not just Airborne Laser Scanning, but also Sentinel‐2 can effectively estimate absolute canopy cover and canopy cover heterogeneity ‐ structural metrics that determine the subcanopy light regime, found to be linked to the vascular plant species richness in the understory of temperate mountain forests.

Citizen Science for Individual Identification of Pine Martens Martes martes From Camera Trap Footage
Camera traps generate large volumes of wildlife footage, but identifying animals to the individual level remains challenging and time‐consuming. Using European pine martens in the Forest of Dean as a case study, we assessed whether citizen scientists could identify individuals from camera trap photos and videos.

Energy Poverty and Climate Shocks: Are Changing Weather Patterns Leaving South Africa in the Dark?
ABSTRACT Energy and climate change are deeply interlinked, with the latter exerting significant influence on energy demand and supply. In regions such as South Africa, where socio‐economic vulnerability is high, understanding how climate change affects energy poverty is essential to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 7 ...

The harmful ultraviolet component of sunlight necessitates reliable and wavelength‐selective personal UV monitoring technologies. Here, thermally evaporated CuBr thin films enable dual‐mode UV dosimetry through persistent photoconductive and colorimetric responses arising from charge trapping and surface oxide formation.

ABSTRACT Modern engineering faces a ‘complexity crisis’ characterized by interlinked, multidisciplinary ‘wicked problems’, particularly within the defence and aerospace sectors. Although systems thinking is recognized as a critical competency for navigating this environment, empirical quantitative frameworks for its measurement remain limited.
