In order to accurately predict the risk level of ancient timber structures under earthquake,22 evaluation indexes were selected, including hazard of disaster-causing factors, susceptibility assessment of disaster environment, and vulnerability of disaster-bearing Special Tags body, combined with seismic damage characteristics and structural charact
Abundance and species richness of overwintering ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) are higher in the edge than in the centre of a woodlot
Semi-natural habitats are key components of rural landscapes because they shelter a significant number of overwintering arthropods that are beneficial to agriculture.However, woodlots are semi-natural habitats with high patch-level heterogeneity and this aspect has been poorly studied.The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of wood
An historical analysis of united states experiences using stamp-based revenues for wildlife conservation and habitat protection
Abstract In the United States, the transition from unchecked hunting, habitat loss, and species endangerment to an ongoing environmental awakening has been examined through various lenses.Despite this gradual perspective shift, recent reports continue to warn of global declines in species and habitat diversity.As the need for biodiversity conservat
Continual Barlow Twins: Continual Self-Supervised Learning for Remote Sensing Semantic Segmentation
In the field of earth observation (EO), continual learning (CL) algorithms have been proposed to deal with large datasets by decomposing them into several subsets and processing them incrementally.The majority of these algorithms assume that data are, first, coming from a single source, and second, fully labeled.Real-world EO datasets are instead c
