Mapping Scytonemin Pigment Content and Biocrust Functional Indicators Using High‐Resolution Multispectral Imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that high‐resolution multispectral imagery combined with machine learning can accurately predict key biocrust functional indicators, particularly the UV‐protective pigment scytonemin, across dryland ecosystems. Using fine‐scale imagery acquired in the Chihuahuan Desert and Colorado Plateau, we identified spectral bands strongly ...

Integrating Image Segmentation and Deep Learning to Improve Radio Frequency Propagation Models

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a multi‐sensor approach to improve radio frequency (RF) propagation models, which play a key role in the rapidly expanding field of connected vehicle technology. Focusing on the 1‐ to 20‐GHz frequency range, which is critical for both satellite‐to‐vehicle and base station‐to‐vehicle communications, our study introduces a ...

AI‐Driven Circular Construction Waste Management for Advancing Sustainable Development

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Construction and demolition waste (C&DW) represents up to 40% of global solid waste, posing a significant barrier to achieving circular economy (CE) objectives and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 11 and SDG 12. However, construction waste management (CWM) systems remain constrained by fragmented data environments ...

Climate‐Resilient Agri‐Food Systems (CRAFS): A Review of Approaches and Outcomes of Agri‐Food Systems

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is increasingly destabilizing agri‐food systems globally, with complex disruptions extending across production, distribution, and consumption. In response, climate‐resilient agri‐food system (CRAFS) approaches have gained prominence as a means to sustain food security under escalating climatic stressors.

Vision language models for bridge inspections: A review of applications in image‐based damage documentation

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Automating bridge inspections requires more than detecting individual damage instances. It demands systems capable of describing, contextualizing, and interpreting damage in an inspection‐relevant manner. Conventional computer vision approaches, such as object detection and segmentation, primarily address visual recognition tasks and are ...

What Is the Return on Investment of Digital Engineering for Complex Systems Development Schedules? Findings From a Mixed‐Methods Case Study on the Post‐Production Design Change Processes of Navy Assets

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Complex engineered systems routinely face schedule and cost overruns, along with poor post‐deployment performance. Both INCOSE and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) have championed Digital Engineering (DE) as a potential remedy, yet most of DE's purported benefits remain anecdotal, and its return on investment (ROI) remains poorly ...
