Simulating burn severity maps at 30 meters in two forested regions in California

چکیده
Abstract Climate change is altering wildfire and vegetation regimes in California’s forested ecosystems. Present day fires are seeing an increase high burn severity area patch size. The ability to predict future patterns could better support policy land management decisions. Here we demonstrate a methodology first, statistically estimate individual classes at 30 meters second, cluster smooth patches onto known landscape. Our goal here was not exactly replicate observed maps, but rather utilize maps as one realization of random process dependent on climate, topography, fire weather, fuels, inform creation additional realizations through our simulation technique. We developed two sets empirical models with different datasets test if coarse accurately model for severity. While visual acuity can be used assess the performance process, also employ Ripley’s K function compare spatial point processes scales capturing appropriate amount clustering. FRAGSTATS obtain metrics contiguity simulation. helped identify number clustering iterations showed how focal window sizes affected patches. Improving simulate may help advance understanding potential influence fuels ecosystem-level response variables that important decision-makers. Simulated managing habitat estimating risks loss, protecting infrastructure homes, improving emissions projections, mapping planning treatment scenarios.

چکیده پلاتین، فلزی نجیب، پایدار و گران قیمت با خاصیت کاتالیزوری زیاد است که کاربرد های صنعتی فراوانی دارد. کمپلکس های پلاتین(ii) به عنوان دارو های ضد سرطان شناخته شدند و در شیمی درمانی بیماران سرطانی کاربرد دارند. خاصیت کاتالیزوری و عملکرد گزینشی پلاتین مستقیماً به اندازه و- شکل ماده ی پلاتینی بستگی دارد. بعضی از نانو ذرات فلزی در سطح مشترک مایع- مایع سنتز شده اند، اما نانو ساختار های پلاتین ب...
Child Malnutrition at Different World Regions in 1990-2013
Adequate nutrition is essential in early childhood to ensure healthy growth, proper organ formation and function, a strong immune system, and neurological and cognitive development. Child malnutrition – as measured by poor child growth – is an important indicator for monitoring population nutritional status and health. In 2013, about 17%, or 98 million children under five years of age in develo...
متن کاملLocal discrepancies in continental scale biomass maps: a case study over forested and non-forested landscapes in Maryland, USA
BACKGROUND Continental-scale aboveground biomass maps are increasingly available, but their estimates vary widely, particularly at high resolution. A comprehensive understanding of map discrepancies is required to improve their effectiveness in carbon accounting and local decision-making. To this end, we compare four continental-scale maps with a recent high-resolution lidar-derived biomass map...
متن کاملSignals and Meters at Roundabouts
With the emergence of the modern roundabout as an effective form of traffic control in the United States, more and more information is needed when situations arise in which additional traffic control is required. The signalization and metering of roundabouts can relieve congestion during peak hours of the day as well as possibly provide safer access for pedestrians and cyclists. Although the si...
