Vertical structure and aboveground biomass of tropical forests from lidar remote sensing

Creator:

Gonçalves, Fabio Guimarães

Abstract:

Methods for obtaining accurate, spatially explicit estimates of biomass density in tropical forests are required to reduce uncertainties in the global carbon cycle, and to support international climate agreements and emerging carbon markets. Three-dimensional (3-D) remote sensing techniques sensitive to the vertical structure of vegetation provide a unique opportunity for...

Rapid endangered species assessment : a novel approach to improve extinction risk assessments in poorly known species

Creator:

Bianchi, Carlos A.

Abstract:

The number of endangered species is rapidly increasing while paucity of adequate information and resources delays establishment of conservation actions. The IUCN’s listing system is insufficient to determine conservation priorities and many species lack information even to be evaluated (i.e., “data deficient”). Here I proposed and tested the Rapid Endangered...

The higher classification of the Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea)

Creator:

Warren, Andrew D.

Abstract:

A comprehensive tribal-level classification for the world's subfamilies of Hesperiidae, the skipper butterflies, is proposed for the first time. Phylogenetic relationships between tribes and subfamilies are inferred using DNA sequence data from three gene regions: 943 bp of cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) (in the mitochondrial genome), 739 bp of...
