A novel UAV-based approach for biomass prediction and grassland structure assessment in coastal meadows
(2021-03-01)Coastal meadows provide a wide range of ecosystem services worldwide. In order to better target conservation efforts in these ecosystems, it is necessary to develop highly accurate models that account for the spatial nature ... -
A tale of two protected areas: “value and nature conservation” in comparable national parks in Estonia and Russia
(2021-03-01)This study explores how local communities reflect on institutional frameworks and protected area governance in two national parks (NPs) with similar nature values in Estonia and Russia, and aims to understand the role of ... -
Plants and river morphodynamics: The emergence of fluvial biogeomorphology
(2024-01-01)In this article, we track the evolution of fluvial biogeomorphology from the middle of the 20th century to the present. We consider the emergence of fluvial biogeomorphology as an interdisciplinary research area that ... -

The Potential of Optical UAS Data for Predicting Surface Soil Moisture in a Peatland across Time and Sites
(2022-05-01)Advances in unmanned aerial systems (UASs) have increased the potential of remote sensing to overcome scale issues for soil moisture (SM) quantification. Regardless, optical imagery is acquired using various sensors and ... -
Machine learning classification and accuracy assessment from high-resolution images of coastal wetlands
(2021-09-01)High-resolution images obtained by multispectral cameras mounted on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are helping to capture the heterogeneity of the environment in images that can be discretized in categories during a ... -
Socio-economic effects of national park governance and management: Lessons from post-socialist era Estonia
(2021-11-01)Despite the significant increase in protected territory globally, there is a common understanding that the designation of protected areas alone does not guarantee their effectiveness nor halt the loss of biodiversity. In ... -
Biodegraders of Large Woody Debris Across a Tidal Gradient in an Indonesian Mangrove Ecosystem
(2022-05-25)There has been limited research on the breakdown, recycling, and flux of carbon from large woody detritus (LWD) in mangrove forests. The breakdown of LWD is caused by guilds of terrestrial and marine biodegrading organisms ... -
Mangrove Trace Metal Biogeochemistry Response to Global Climate Change
(2022-04-06)This review discusses observed impacts from different climate change-driven pressures on mangrove's role in modulating trace metal transfer at the land-ocean interface. It contributes to the literature in a global context ... -
Coastal dynamism in Southern Thailand: An application of the CoastSat toolkit.
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2022-08-24)In Thailand, 17% of the population lives by the coast, approximately 11 million people. A combination of coastal erosion, sea level rise and coastal land subsidence are critical issues threatening the livelihoods of coastal ... -
Experimental climate change impacts on Baltic coastal wetland plant communities.
(2022-11-27)Coastal wetlands provide a range of important ecosystem services, yet they are under threat from a range of stressors including climate change. This is predominantly as a result of alterations to the hydroregime and ... -
Live archives: freedom of information requests as political methodology
(Wiley, 2024-04-17)Freedom of information requests are an important research tool yet receive comparably little methodological scrutiny relative to other methods commonly used by geographers. This article considers two methodological aspects ...
