TreeON: Reconstructing 3D Tree Point Clouds from Orthophotos and Heightmaps

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present TreeON, a novel neural‐based framework for reconstructing detailed 3D tree point clouds from sparse top‐down geodata, using only a single orthophoto and its corresponding Digital Surface Model (DSM). Our method introduces a new training supervision strategy that combines both geometric supervision and a differentiable shadow and ...

Authoring Terrestrial Planets with Diffusion Models

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract To support the design and subsequent generation of terrestrial planets for use in the creative media, we propose a solution that employs a generative model trained on satellite data from planetary bodies with a defined solid surface, such as the Earth and Mars.

Primal SPH Solver for Strongly Coupled Multiphase Simulations with High Density Ratios

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) approach has been increasingly used for multiphase simulations involving interactions between diverse materials. A critical component of an SPH simulator is the pressure solver, which not only facilitates the simulation of compressible or incompressible fluids but also handles contact ...

Impact of global change on the distribution of mountain mammals and birds

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change and land‐use changes are key drivers of global biodiversity loss. Many species are shifting to higher elevations or latitudes in response to global warming, often encountering unfavorable land‐use conditions during the shift. These changes can lead to reduced range size and increased extinction risks, particularly for mountain ...

Extreme weather and economic crisis in the 1430s in England, and the implications for tenurial change

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract The 1430s were characterized by extreme weather conditions, food and fodder shortages, and high mortalities among animals and humans, although the severity of events and their consequences in England have received limited attention. The economic downturn and the depressed customary land market in this decade marked the beginning of the Great ...

Dynamic snow density for snow water equivalent retrieval

open access: yes, 2020
Snow water equivalent is the amount of water that would form if a pack of snow would melt in place. Snow water equivalent is an important variable in describing global seasonal snow cover.

Ascetics, slaves, and necessity in Late Antiquity: renouncing all wealth, but for a single slave

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, EarlyView.
Slave owners in Late Antiquity viewed the possession of at least one slave to be a necessity and a defining mark that distinguished the dignified social classes from the poor. Ascetics who shared this perspective faced a choice when renouncing all worldly possessions in pursuit of spiritual perfection, one not merely about luxury, but also about status

Triple Oxygen Isotope Compositions of Isotopic Reference Waters: Implications for VSMOW‐Scale and VSMOW–SLAP‐Scale Δ′17O Calibration

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Triple oxygen isotope ratios of two primary (VSMOW, SLAP) and twelve secondary water isotopic reference materials were precisely measured using BrF5 fluorination‐IRMS. The measured Δ'17OVSMOW value for SLAP (34 ± 6 per meg) demonstrates that VSMOW‐SLAP normalisation ensures interlaboratory comparability, but introduces systematic offsets for
