Management and sustainability of ground-mounted solar parks requires consideration of vegetation succession as an omnipresent process by Markus Zaplata

“…Woody plants benefit from the thousands of safe sites amongst the modular panel constructions, and softwoods often avoid being cut due to their flexibility, or grow back from their stumps. Stronger and stronger over time. Instead of relying exclusively on labour-intensive and costly mowing, managers can make use of grazing animals. …”

Black Turpentine Beetle, Dendroctonus terebrans (Olivier) (Insecta: Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) by Albert E. Mayfield, Jiri Hulcr, John L. Foltz

“…Adults are strongly attracted to volatile pine odors and readily breed in fresh stumps. In typical forests, infestations do not exhibit the rapid and devastating expansion characteristic of the closely related southern pine beetle, but in stands where stress conditions are frequent or persistent, black turpentine beetle can become a chronic pest and cause significant mortality over an extended period of time. …”

Semi-supervised tri-Adaboost algorithm for network intrusion detection by Yali Yuan, Liuwei Huo, Yachao Yuan, Zhixiao Wang

“…In the algorithm, three different Adaboost algorithms are used as the weak classifiers (both for continuous and categorical data), constituting the decision stumps in the tri-training method. In addition, the chi-square method is used to reduce the dimension of feature and improve computational efficiency. …”

Considération des caractéristiques structurales comme indicateurs écologiques d’aménagement forestier au Togo (Afrique de l’Ouest) by Kossi Adjonou, Aboudou Raoufou Radji, Adzo Dzifa Kokutse, Kouami Kokou

“…The species distribution per regeneration strategy shows that most of the species preferentially regenerate by seedling (84.1 %), slightly by shoots of stumps (12.4 %) and scarcely by sucker (3.5 %). The decreasing exponential curve revealed by the distribution of species according to diameter groups indicates that these forests underwent one or much degradations and are currently being reconstituted but abounds still in with a great potential in ligneous forestry resources. …”
