Seismic Risk Classification of Building Clusters Using MST Clustering and UAV Remote Sensing by Xianteng Wang, Xue Li, Zhumei Liu, Zihao Wu, Yike Xie, Zijie Han

“…Conventionally, remote sensing assessment of the seismic capacity for houses has been based on the image features of individual houses, instead of the spatial similarity between them. To enhance the classification accuracy of house structure types, this work proposes a minimum spanning tree (MST) house clustering structure type classification method based on the spatial similarity of houses. …”

Asymmetry between ecosystem health and ecological quality from an Earth observation perspective by Jiapeng Xiong, Hangnan Yu, Lan Li, Meng Yuan, Jiangtao Yu

“…In this study, the EQ and EH of the Mekong River Basin (MRB), located in Southeast Asia, were determined by applying the Remote Sensing Ecological Index (RSEI) and Vigor, Organization, Resilience, and Services (VORS) models, and a spatial comparative analysis was conducted. The results showed that the EQ (RSEI_mean = 0.56) and EH (EHI_mean = 0.59) had high degrees of consistency. …”

Response of community distribution and biodiversity of grassland plants to environmental factors based on a “3-circles” paradigm by WANG Xing, SONG Naiping, YANG Xinguo

“…Vegetation characteristics, soil water content at different layers, litter biomass and faeces counts on the ground and elevation were surveyed in August 2012. We conducted a clustering analysis by the important value of dominate species and then analyzed the relationship among the spatial distribution of community and biodiversity and different environmental factors (soil water content, litter biomass, faeces counts and elevation) by redundancy analysis (RDA).Results showed that: 1) A total of 56 plant species were recorded, including 14 families and 38 genera. …”
