The approach was operationally applied to the entire Congo River basin to accurately estimate deforestation at regional, national and landscape levels.
Currently the area-based approach is operationally applied in several countries when carrying out standwise forest inventories (e.g. Hyyppä et al. 2012; White et al. 2013).
Many techniques used to predict reference conditions are difficult to apply operationally because they are resource-intensive, subjective, or applicable for a limited suite of environmental variables or over a narrow range of environmental variation.
A campaign up to age 18 actually weakly dominates shorter catch-up campaigns; however, shorter campaigns have been included in the analysis because it would be politically and operationally difficult to apply a combination of two strategies to the same population.
A systematic approach to algorithm design, termed "integrated plasma control," enables new tokamak controllers to be applied operationally with minimal machine time required for tuning.
Hexazinone applied operationally to foliage and soil in spring soon after planting has resulted in limited conifer phytotoxicity in the Pacific Northwest (USA) (Ketchum and Rose 2003) but can cause phytotoxicity if trees are under stress due to disease, transplant shock or inclement weather (Young 2015) or if rates are too high (Preest 1986).
The scope of this paper is to demonstrate, evaluate and compare two burn scar mapping (BSM) approaches developed and applied operationally in the framework of the RISK-EOS service element project within the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) program funded by ESA (http://www.risk-eos.com).
The main quantitative limitations of nuclear weapons apply to warheads operationally deployed on launchers and prepared for instantaneous firing.
In the end, our most critical needs concern how to manage for resilience: how to identify potential actions, how to measure resilience in an operationally meaningful way, how to learn about the effects of management on natural and social systems and apply that learning to improve management over time.
The model was applied to an operationally sized Forest Management Agreement (FMA) area in central Alberta, Canada.
