The spatio‐temporal distribution of pollen traits related to dispersal and desiccation tolerance in Canarian laurel forest (2022)
Journal Article
Nogue, S., Nascimento, L. D., Graham, L., Brown, L., Gonzalez, L., Castilla-Beltran, A., …Willis, K. (2022). The spatio‐temporal distribution of pollen traits related to dispersal and desiccation tolerance in Canarian laurel forest. Journal of Vegetation Science, 33(5), https://doi.org/10.1111/jvs.13147

Questions Pollen traits (e.g., size, wall thickness, number of apertures) have been suggested to be relevant in terms of pollination mechanisms and the ability of the male gametophyte to withstand desiccation. We examined the spatiotemporal distribu... Read More about The spatio‐temporal distribution of pollen traits related to dispersal and desiccation tolerance in Canarian laurel forest.

Calibration and characterisation of four chlorophyll meters and transmittance spectroscopy for non-destructive estimation of forest leaf chlorophyll concentration (2022)
Journal Article
Brown, L., Williams, O., & Dash, J. (2022). Calibration and characterisation of four chlorophyll meters and transmittance spectroscopy for non-destructive estimation of forest leaf chlorophyll concentration. Agricultural and forest meteorology, 323, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.agrformet.2022.109059

Chlorophyll meters enable efficient and non-destructive estimation of leaf chlorophyll concentration (LCC), but require calibration against destructively-determined values to provide an absolute quantity that is comparable between different studies a...

Maize yield estimation in intercropped smallholder fields using satellite data in southern Malawi (2022)
Journal Article
Li, C., Chimimba, E., Kambombe, O., Brown, L., Chibarabada, T., Lu, Y., …Dash, J. (2022). Maize yield estimation in intercropped smallholder fields using satellite data in southern Malawi. Remote Sensing, 14(10), https://doi.org/10.3390/rs14102458

Satellite data provide high potential for estimating crop yield, which is crucial to understanding determinants of yield gaps and therefore improving food production, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) regions. However, accurate assessment of c... Read More about Maize yield estimation in intercropped smallholder fields using satellite data in southern Malawi.

Land surface phenology retrievals for arid and semi-arid ecosystems (2022)
Journal Article
Xie, Q., Cleverly, J., Moore, C., Ding, Y., Hall, C., Ma, X., …Huete, A. (2022). Land surface phenology retrievals for arid and semi-arid ecosystems. ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, 185, 129-145. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.isprsjprs.2022.01.017

Land surface phenology (LSP) plays a critical role in the regulation of photosynthesis, evapotranspiration, and energy fluxes. Significant progress has been made in extracting LSP information over large areas using satellite data, yet LSP retrievals...
