Classification of Forest Stratification and Evaluation of Forest Stratification Changes over Two Periods Using UAV-LiDAR by Hideyuki Niwa

“…However, only a few studies have used uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV)-LiDAR to extract the characteristics of the 3D structure of the forest understory. Therefore, this study proposes a method for classifying and mapping forest stratification and evaluating forest stratification changes using multitemporal UAV-LiDAR data. …”

The Divine Comedy (Hell) through Aristotelian ethics and Thomistic ontology by Boštjan Marko Turk

“…Against all expectations, Dante did not base his work on virtue as defined by Catholic morality, which makes his work seem less guided by established principles, even if the ontological essence of the text reflects the Thomistic structure. This is not without consequence. The characters of the Inferno are not approached from the angle of absolute morality, but rather through the accounts of their concrete lives, which Dante narrates and analyses in depth. …”
