Fig. 7. Spatial distribution of rangeland grasshopper outbreaks for the years when more than 1 million ha were infested (white = no recorded infestations; light shading = 1-2 yr infested; dark shading ...

Questions: Pollination is an ecosystem function that varies at local spatial scales. Remote sensing may help to quantify and map the resulting patterns for a better understanding of ecosystem ...

Existing sensor probes for microelectrical devices can measure only their average electric properties, providing no information on their spatial distribution. Liquid crystal droplets (LCDs) -- ...

A new study warns that day zero droughts—when reservoirs fail to supply taps—could become common within this decade.
