Fuel Models and Fire Potential From Satellite and Surface Observations
TL;DR: A 1-km resolution fire danger fuel model map was derived through use of previously mapped land cover classes and ecoregions, and extensive ground sample data, then refined through review by fire managers familiar with various portions of the U.S., but it also made possible immediate development of a satellite and ground based fire potential index map.
Journal ArticleDOI
Animal migration amid shifting patterns of phenology and predation: lessons from a Yellowstone elk herd

TL;DR: A long-term decline in the productivity of elk that migrate through intact wilderness areas to protected summer ranges inside Yellowstone National Park, USA is described, suggesting that large-carnivore recovery and drought, operating simultaneously along an elevation gradient, have disproportionately influenced the demography of migratory elk.
Journal ArticleDOI
A vectorial capacity product to monitor changing malaria transmission potential in epidemic regions of Africa.
TL;DR: The analysis of VCAP in relation to rainfall, temperature and malaria incidence data in these regions shows that the expanded VCAP correctly tracks the risk of malaria both in regions where rainfall is the limiting factor and in areas where temperature is the limited factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global Rates of Habitat Loss and Implications for Amphibian Conservation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a global assessment of land use dynamics in the context of amphibian distributions, using a combination of published literature and digital databases, using an ecoregion framework to help interpret species distributions across environmental, rather than political, boundaries.
