Classification of tree species and standing dead trees in Boreal forests using UAV‐based RGB, multispectral, and LiDAR point clouds

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...

Using Airborne Laser Scanning and Sentinel‐2 to Understand Subcanopy Light Regimes and Understory Diversity of Vascular Plants in Temperate Mountain Forests

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
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.

Synthetic Imagery Improves Ecological Classification When Real Data Are Scarce, Not Direct Substitutes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Image generation models can create synthetic ecological datasets and potentially alleviate limitations from sparse real data. Using 20 tree genera across community‐science and street‐view imagery, we tested whether synthetic images could replace or supplement real data for image classification.

Outcomes after delivery room positive pressure ventilation in late preterm and term infants

Resuscitation Plus
Objectives: Characterize short-term outcomes of late preterm and term infants who received positive pressure ventilation in the delivery room and compare these with infants who did not receive resuscitation at birth.

Recent Advances in Oriented Hydrogels: From Fundamental Mechanisms to Future Challenges

SusMat, EarlyView.
Traditional hydrogels suffer from weak mechanical properties and limited functionality due to their random polymer networks. This review comprehensively summarizes the reinforcement mechanisms of oriented structure for hydrogels, the design/fabrication strategies, and the latest application progress of high‐strength oriented hydrogels.

Pharmacological Advancements of PRC2 in Cancer Therapy: A Narrative Review

Life
Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) is known to regulate gene expression and chromatin structure as it methylates H3K27, resulting in gene silencing.

Changes in trends of the height growth of spruce and pine derived from continuous measurements in forest management plans of Kostelec nad Černými lesy and on pilot research plots in the Czech Republic

Journal of Forest Science, 2004
In changing growth conditions, methodical procedures should concentrate on the investigation of processes currently under way in forests. Many studies have shown that present models of forest growth parameters differ from previous surveys as far as for ...

Parturition timing and the pre‐ and post‐partum behaviour of female moose assessed using animal‐borne video and movement‐based approaches

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Limited information on moose calving behaviour, including parturition timing, cow‐calf interactions, and pre‐ and post‐partum movement patterns hinder our ability to define calving phenology and habitat use. GPS‐collars were deployed on 89 female moose over five years, including eight collars equipped with animal‐borne video and environmental data ...

Isotope ratios and concentration of N in needles, roots and soils of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) stands as influenced by atmospheric deposition of N

Journal of Forest Science, 2005
This study aims to investigate the changes in isotope ratios in foliage and soils of two Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) forests greatly differing in their atmospheric N deposition and climatic conditions.

Why wolves walk – drivers of daily movement in a social large carnivore

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Animal movement patterns are influenced by a range of extrinsic and intrinsic factors, including the distribution of resources, human disturbance, landscape connectivity, species interactions, and individual traits. We examined factors associated with daily movement distance (DMD) and linearity in 20 territorial Scandinavian wolves Canis lupus during ...
