Functional homogenization of terrestrial mammals outside protected areas in the Hengduan Mountains, China

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the crucial role of human impacts on biodiversity loss, many assessments of this loss focus on single metrics, such as species richness, and overlook the multidimensional effects of human activities. Because of its importance to ecosystem functioning, we investigated the functional diversity of medium‐ and large‐sized mammal ...

Visual Modelling to Predict Behavioural Responses of Catsharks, Skates, and Plaice to Artificial Light for Use in Bycatch Reduction

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Light can be used to deter bycatch from fishing nets, but few studies have aimed to quantify how species view and respond to light. Here, we used visual models to predict how target (plaice Pleuronectes platessa) and bycatch (small‐spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicular and undersized skates, Raja spp) species, captured in mixed demersal ...

Vegetation hot spot signatures from synergy of DSCOVR EPIC, Terra MISR, MODIS and geostationary sensors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
It has been widely recognized that the hotspot region in Bidirectional Reflectance Factors (BRF) of vegetated surfaces represents the most information-rich directions in the directional distribution of canopy reflected radiation.

Differentiating solar lentigines from post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation with hyperspectral imaging: A pilot study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
This preliminary study attempted to characterize solar lentigines and post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) observed on Japanese women. Colorimetric features and chromophore concentrations were measured using hyperspectral imaging for each hyperpigmentation type.

Translucency of 3D‐Printed 3Y‐ and 5Y‐Doped Zirconia

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate and compare the translucency of 3D‐printed zirconia materials: 3Y tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (3Y‐TZP) and 5Y partially stabilized zirconia (5Y‐PSZ). Material and Methods 3D‐printed 5Y‐PSZ and 3Y‐TZP materials fabricated using digital light processing (DLP) were investigated.

Emission and reflection from healthy and stressed natural targets with computer analysis of spectroradiometric and multispectral scanner data [PDF]

open access: yes
Special emphasis was on corn plants, and the healthy targets were differentiated from stressed ones by remote sensing. Infrared radiometry of plants is reviewed thoroughly with emphasis on agricultural crops.

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...

A Compact Laboratory Spectro-Goniometer (CLabSpeG) to Assess the BRDF of Materials. Presentation, Calibration and Implementation on Fagus sylvatica L. Leaves

open access: yesSensors, 2007
The design and calibration of a new hyperspectral Compact Laboratory Spectro-Goniometer (CLabSpeG) is presented. CLabSpeG effectively measures the bidirectionalreflectance Factor (BRF) of a sample, using a halogen light source and an AnalyticalSpectral ...

Seeing herbaria in a new light: leaf reflectance spectroscopy unlocks trait and classification modeling in plant biodiversity collections

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Reflectance spectroscopy is a rapid method for estimating traits and discriminating species. Spectral libraries from herbarium specimens represent an untapped resource for generating broad phenomic datasets across space, time, and taxa. We conducted a proof‐of‐concept study using trait data and spectra from herbarium specimens up to 179 yr old,
