A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Fine-Grained Urban Village Extraction by Mask Transformer From High-Resolution Satellite Images in Pearl River Delta

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Urban renewal has led to the proliferation of informal urban habitats, such as slums, shanty towns, and urban villages (UVs). As an important component of urban renewal, UVs influence urban spatial structure and land use patterns.
