Spatial Pattern Analysis of Tree Species Distribution in a Central Appalachian Upland Heath Barren
The spatial pattern of plants reflects biotic and abiotic factors, including interactions with surrounding environmental conditions and other plants. Appalachian heath systems are presently understudied regarding spatial point pattern research, despite representing a unique and biologically …

A New Approach For Geocoding Postal Code-Based Data in Health Related Studies
… researchers often use geocoding for studying the spatial distribution of populations based on a certain health outcome. To conduct any form of geocoding, health researchers generally require the use of address based data (e.g. street addresses) that are commonly obtained through survey …

Individual And Population Responses Of The Caribbean Sponge, Aplysina Cauliformis, To Natural And Anthropogenic Stressors
… reef. Dynamics of ARBS were investigated using spatial pattern analysis of A. cauliformis populations and revealed that direct physical contact was the transmission mechanism for ARBS within a population. In the three year period of this study, hurricane effects on sponge population an disease …

Sustainable energy performances of urban morphologies
… the city produce more sustainable energy urban patterns. To employ this framework I utilize a Spatial Pattern Oriented Modelling approach. The energy performance of an urban morphology metric comes from its basis in the international debate on urban energy sustainability, its ability to account …

Detection of Mortality in Tropical Forests Using Remote Sensing: From Treefall Gaps to Large Disturbances
… high resolution remote sensing; (2) mapping and spatial analysis of large disturbances (blow-downs) caused by convective cloud drafts; and (3) a quantitative characterization of the large spectrum of natural disturbances in tropical ecosystems. For small scale disturbances, two large plots of 114 …

Conservación de quirópteros en el Sur de Europa
… the second chapter, we investigated the temporal patterns of bat mortality in wind farms in the province of Cádiz, using a dataset spanning 11 years (2009 - 2019) across 904 wind turbines in the province of Cádiz. A total of 2,858 deaths corresponding to 10 different genera were reported, although …
