Numerous case studies have, however, demonstrated a high potential for retrieving activity data on forest degradation, as well as uncovering history of land use and other causes of disturbance using EO data.
Therefore, we indirectly take into consideration the non-malicious causes of disturbance such as the saturation of a processor or the lateness or loss of data and signalling packets due to unfavorable transmission conditions.
Here, we analysed a field experiment carried out over 12 years ago, to compare three planted and three reference mangrove stands (natural and previously undisturbed), with no attempt to remove the various causes of disturbance.
Managing for resilience includes addressing causes of disturbance and decline at a local scale such as overfishing and pollution, identifying and protecting potentially resilient areas, and designing networks of MPAs to address threats at broader scales.
The cause of disturbances encountered in a new methanol plant is investigated and the design of a stabilising control scheme and a simple experimental optimisation method are described.
If SD is moderate and PSE is low then harmonics will be the cause of disturbance, transient disturbance occurs when SD is moderate and PSE is also moderate.
When a control chart signals an out-of-control condition, a search begins to identify and eliminate the cause of disturbance.
Storms flowing from the west are a common cause of disturbance in this region, and we hypothesised that west-facing forests exposed to these winds would be shorter than those in sheltered east-facing sites.
Where we were unable to identify a cause of disturbance, we classified the patch as unknown disturbance.
Most of these effects were attributed to its estrogenic potential [ 6, 7]; however, also oxidative stress due to ZEN exposure has been identified as a cause of disturbance of fish cell functions [ 8].
