Fluvial and aquatic applications of Structure from Motion photogrammetry and unmanned aerial vehicle/drone technology
Structure from motion (SfM) has seen rapid uptake recently in the fluvial and aquatic
sciences. This uptake is not least due to the widespread availability of cheap unmanned …

Recent Arctic tundra fire initiates widespread thermokarst development
Fire-induced permafrost degradation is well documented in boreal forests, but the role of
fires in initiating thermokarst development in Arctic tundra is less well understood. Here we …

End of the chain? Rugosity and fine-scale bathymetry from existing underwater digital imagery using structure-from-motion (SfM) technology
CD Storlazzi, P Dartnell, GA Hatcher, AE Gibbs - Coral Reefs, 2016 - Springer
The rugosity or complexity of the seafloor has been shown to be an important ecological
parameter for fish, algae, and corals. Historically, rugosity has been measured either using …
