Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) derived from satellites has been ubiquitously
utilized in the field of remote sensing. Nevertheless, there are multitudinous contaminations …

Habitat loss and degradation, overexploitation, climate change and the spread of invasive
species are drastically depleting the Earth's biological diversity, leading to detrimental …

Animal movement is fundamental for ecosystem functioning and species survival, yet the
effects of the anthropogenic footprint on animal movements have not been estimated across …

There has been a recent surge of interest in remote sensing and its use in ecology and
conservation but this is the first book to focus explicitly on the NDVI (Normalised Difference …

The green wave hypothesis (GWH) states that migrating animals should track or 'surf'high-
quality forage at the leading edge of spring green-up. To index such high-quality forage …

With a shrinking supply of wilderness and growing recognition that top predators can have a
profound influence on ecosystems, the persistence of large carnivores in human-dominated …

Two prominent limitations of species distribution models (SDM s) are spatial biases in
existing occurrence data and a lack of spatially explicit predictor variables to fully capture …

As one of the earliest remote sensing indices, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index
(NDVI) has been employed extensively for vegetation research. However, despite an …

Aim Habitat heterogeneity has long been recognized as a key landscape characteristic
determining biodiversity patterns. However, a lack of standardized, large‐scale, high …

Migratory birds track seasonal resources across and between continents. We propose a
general strategy of tracking the broad seasonal abundance of resources throughout the …
