Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal infrared imaging of geothermal environments and by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV): A case study of the Wairakei – Tauhara geothermal field, Taupo, New Zealand
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the use of a small UAV for aerial monitoring of geothermal environments at spatial and temporal scales that would be difficult to achieve using conventional methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
A conservation strategy for dugongs : implications of Australian research
TL;DR: The optimum management strategy is to identify areas that consistently support large numbers of dugongs and to set these aside as dugong sanctuaries in which dugong mortality is minimized and their habitat protected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Citizen science and the power of public participation in marine spatial planning
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate how consistent citizen observations can be used to identify hotspots of good and poor environmental health across a MSP region, and where environmental health has improved or degraded in the past five years; information that is difficult to obtain by other means.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conservation, mismatch and the research–implementation gap
TL;DR: A workshop at the Society for Conservation Biology Oceania Conference 2014 on bridging the research-implementation gap highlighted the importance of bringing together researchers and practitioners to discuss their work.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature Effects on Biomass and Regeneration of Vegetation in a Geothermal Area
Abdul Nishar,Martin K.-F. Bader,Eoin J. O'Gorman,Jieyu Deng,Barbara Breen,Sebastian Leuzinger +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that soil temperature had a major impact on root biomass and vegetation regeneration, which could be particularly useful in low heat flow geothermal systems that more realistically mimic soil warming.
