Resistance, resilience or change: post-disturbance dynamics of boreal forests after insect outbreaks
(Springer, 2019)Understanding and measuring forest resistance and resilience have emerged as key priorities in ecology and management, particularly to maintain forest functioning. The analysis of the factors involved in a forest’s ability ... -
Assessment of spray drift potential reduction for hollow-cone nozzles: Part 2. LiDAR technique
(Elsevier B.V., 2019-06-11)Pesticide spray drift poses health hazards to humans and causes a significant impact on the environment. In this work the capacity of an ad hoc light detection and ranging (LiDAR) system to differentiate spray nozzles ... -
Multi-modal deep learning for Fuji apple detection using RGB-D cameras and their radiometric capabilities
(Elsevier, 2019-05-10)Fruit detection and localization will be essential for future agronomic management of fruit crops, with applications in yield prediction, yield mapping and automated harvesting. RGB-D cameras are promising sensors for fruit ... -
Tree light capture and spatial variability of understory light increase with species mixing and tree size heterogeneity
(NRC Research Press, 2016)Mixed and multi-layered forest ecosystems are sometimes more productive than monospecific and single-layered ones. It has been suggested that trees of different species and sizes occupy complementary positions in space, ... -
Unraveling the role of light and biotic interactions on seedling performance of four Pyrenean species along environmental gradients
(Elsevier, 2013)The predicted upward displacement of forest species due to climate warming is expected to be modulated by a medley of abiotic and biotic factors acting at microsite level. Species-specific differences in plant responses ... -
Understory light predictions in mixed conifer mountain forests: Role of aspect-induced variation in crown geometry and openness
(Elsevier, 2012)Predicting light availability in forest understory is a key step in the modeling of forest dynamics. Aspect is often the main source of environmental variation in mountain forests, and so aspect-induced differences in crown ... -
Lessons learned from arson wildfire incidence in reforestations and natural stands in Spain
(MDPI, 2019-03-05)Wildfires are currently considered the major threat to forests in Mediterranean countries. It has been implied that a large percentage of arson-caused fires in Spain are connected with the extensive reforestation programs ... -
Software para la mejora del aprendizaje del cálculo estructural en ingeniería y arquitectura.Programa Barras V-2.0, Universitat de Lleida
(CIDUI Congrés Internacional de Docència Universitària i Innovació, 2012)Actualmente, para abordar el cálculo estructural en la Universitat de Lleida existe software de uso profesional. Los dos grandes inconvenientes para aplicarlo como herramienta de docencia son, su alto coste económico y ... -
Stratified sampling in fruit orchards using cluster-based ancillary information maps: a comparative analysis to improve yield and quality estimates
(Springer, 2019-03-25)Estimation of yield or other fruit quality parameter is of great interest to farmers to decide on management actions just before harvesting and, in any case, to anticipate and plan harvesting operations. Making accurate ... -
Modelling temporal variation of fire-occurrence towards the dynamic prediction of human wildfire ignition danger in northeast Spain
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)Models of human-caused ignition probability are typically developed from static or structural points of view. This research analyzes the intra-annual dimension of fire occurrence and fire-triggering factors in NE Spain ... -
Combining innovative mulches and soil conditioners in mountain afforestation with ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.) in the Pyrenees (NE Spain)
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2018)Aim of study: To assess the effectiveness for improving early seedling performance of the individual and combined application of (i) various doses of an innovative soil conditioner including polyacrylamide-free super-absorbent ... -
Application of light detection and ranging and ultrasonic sensors to high-throughput phenotyping and precision horticulture: current status and challenges
(Springer Nature, 2018)Ultrasonic and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensors have been some of the most deeply investigated sensing technologies within the scope of digital horticulture. They can accurately estimate geometrical and structural ... -
