Spatial distribution of white-handed gibbon calls in relation to forest vertical components, Malaysia, from a perspective of forest management by Okuda, Toshinori, Matsubara, Haruka, Yamada, Toshihiro, Chew, Wei Chuang, Meng, Alvin Shin Lau, Paska, Jacquoelyne, Nishizaki, Hiromitsu, Sidek Omar, Nur Shifatil Ulya, Zakaria, Mohamed

“…All forest vertical components at the calling locations were significantly higher than the average values over the whole study site, which suggests that white-handed gibbons choose taller canopy trees at locations with higher elevation. Topographically convex areas (ridgetops or upper hillslopes) tended to be chosen as calling locations over concave areas (e.g., valleys, lower slopes). …”

The Use of Landsat TM in Assessing Forest Area Change in Selangor, Malaysia by Hamzah, Zulhazman

“…Detection of forest area change was performed using multitemporal LANDSAT data taken in 1993 and 1996, with the support of existing land use, topographic, and forest resource maps. The data were initially analyzed using Normalized Differences Vegetation Index (NDVI) in order to get a preliminary scenario of the change in forest cover. …”

Subsurface morphology and scaling of lunar impact basins by Collins, G. S., Wieczorek, M. A., Neumann, G. A., Miljkovic, Katarina, Johnson, Benjamin C, Soderblom, Jason, Zuber, Maria

“…GRAIL-derived crustal thickness maps were used to define the regions of crustal thinning observed in centers of lunar impact basins, which represents a less unambiguous measure of a basin size than those based on topographic features. The formation of lunar impact basins was modeled numerically by using the iSALE-2D hydrocode, with a large range of impact and target conditions typical for the first billion years of lunar evolution. …”
