Lianas (woody vines) are abundant and diverse, particularly in tropical ecosystems. Lianas
use trees for structural support to reach the forest canopy, often putting leaves above their …

The use of thermal infrared (TIR) remote sensing, between 8 and 14 μm, is an important
method to monitor vegetation water stress status. To comprehend the spectral characteristics …

Lianas (woody climbers) are crucial components of tropical forests and they have been
increasingly recognized to have profound effects on tropical forest carbon dynamics. Despite …

Despite their low contribution to forest carbon stocks, lianas (woody vines) play an important
role in the carbon dynamics of tropical forests. As structural parasites, they hinder tree …

It is crucial but challenging to detect intermediate or end products promptly. Traditional
chemical detection methods are time-consuming and cannot detect mineral phase content …

Gentiana, which is one of the largest genera of Gentianoideae, most of which had potential
pharmaceutical value, and applied to local traditional medical treatment. Because of the …

Monitoring of soybean genotypes is important because of intellectual property over seed
technology, better management over seed genetics, and more efficient strategies for its …

Visible-near-infrared (vis-NIR) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) are key technologies becoming
pervasive in proximal soil sensing (PSS), whose fusion holds promising potential to improve …

The impacts of invasive plant species on the environment and economy make effectively
detecting and mapping them crucial. Using leaf spectral reflectance and the advantages of …

Lianas are a key growth form in tropical forests. Their lack of self‐supporting tissues and
their vertical position on top of the canopy make them strong competitors of resources. A few …
