Ecological research heavily relies on coarse‐gridded climate data based on standardized
temperature measurements recorded at 2 m height in open landscapes. However, many …

Ecosystem structure, especially vertical vegetation structure, is one of the six essential
biodiversity variable classes and is an important aspect of habitat heterogeneity, affecting …

Ecosystem complexity is among the important drivers of biodiversity and ecosystem
functioning, and unmanned aerial systems (UASs) are becoming an important tool for …

Mapping the microclimate effect of forest canopies on understory temperature requires
spatially explicit predictors at very fine spatial resolutions. Light Detection And Ranging …

Temperature is a fundamental driver of species distribution and ecosystem functioning. Yet,
our knowledge of the microclimatic conditions experienced by organisms inside tropical …

Urban greenery plays an important role in reducing air pollution, being one of the often-
used, nature-based measures in sustainable and climate-resilient urban development …

Forests create unique microclimates that have the potential to serve as microrefugia for
species under climate change. Yet, our understanding of the heterogenous thermal patterns …

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is the second largest sugar source crop in the world. Sugar
content in its beetroot is an important quality index of sugar beet. Rapid and accurate …

Forest canopies can buffer the understory against temperature extremes, often creating
cooler microclimates during warm summer days compared to temperatures outside the …

Increasingly available high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) facilitate the use of
fine-scale topographic variables as proxies for microclimatic effects not captured by the …
