Agent-Based Modeling of a Thermal Energy Transition in the Built Environment

Energies, 2019
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 80% below 1990 levels by 2050, an energy transition is taking place in the European Union. Achieving these targets requires changes in the heating and cooling sector (H&C).

Assessing Tree Water Balance after Forest Thinning Treatments Using Thermal and Multispectral Imaging

Remote Sensing
The health of coniferous forests in the western U.S. is under threat from mega-drought events, increasing vulnerability to insects, disease, and mortality. Forest densification resulting from fire exclusion increases these susceptibilities. Silvicultural
