TL;DR: In this article, the authors assess the significance of the presumed "umbrella effect" of Natura 2000 areas and assess the importance of the site conservation under the EU Birds and Habitats Directive.

TL;DR: Application of the model was restricted by the current lack of quantitative dose–response relationships between non-toxic stress and survival and reproduction, Nevertheless, the model provides a first step towards integrating and quantifying the impacts of multiple stressors on white-tailed eagle populations.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate changes in abundance of 93 breeding bird species over a period of 10 years in response to rehabilitation, by comparing population changes in 75 rehabilitated sites with 124 non-rehabilitated reference sites.

TL;DR: In this paper, a post-hoc stratification and weighting procedure is presented to correct the bias of non-random sampling in the Dutch Breeding Bird Monitoring Program (BMP).

TL;DR: In this paper, a generic interactive eScience environment with multi-scale object-based image analysis (OBIA) and interpretation of LiDAR point clouds, including data storage, scalable computing, tools for machine learning and visualisation (feature selection, annotation/segmentation, object classification, and evaluation), and a PostGIS spatial database.
