The untapped potential of camera traps for farmland biodiversity monitoring: current practice and outstanding agroecological questions Through a systematic literature review, we show that camera traps (CTs) have been underutilised for farmland biodiversity monitoring. The few existing farmland-based CT studies focused on local-level...

Camera traps are infrequently used in farmlands, but why, and what could we gain from their wider adoption in agroecosystems? Read our new paper about it: doi.org/10.1002/rse2...

Mapping indicator species of segetal flora for result-based payments in arable land using UAV imagery and deep learning The decline of segetal flora species across Europe, driven by intensified agricultural practices, is impacting other taxa and ecosystem functions. Res…

I'm kicking off my journey here with this amazing collaborative project on mapping indicator species in arable land with #UAV and #deep-learning to get more biodiversity-friendly agriculture 🌼🌾🐝🪱 by promoting wider adoption of result-based payments. Paper here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
