Is that radar imagery available for the general public?

Ahhh. Maybe that’s why mine don’t look as punchy. I have only used a macro with natural light. Thanks

Great macros. Do you put a black card behind your subjects?

Oh good. Are you hoping to publish that too? Probably plants traits would also differ

Wonder if plants would show similar response. Probably not with differing (fire vs harvest) soil conditions

Thank you. I will check out that paper. Appreciate your help. Many options to consider

I’m surprised that continuous analogs to patch metrics are not more popular. Gradients in nature are inherently continuous. Perhaps it’s less practical to quantify such patterns.

Thank you, Jakub. I had been reviewing the geodiv r package for calculating gradient metrics. It hasn’t been cited much. Actually, it doesn’t seem as though gradient surface metrics are commonly applied. I will read the two blog posts you shared. Segmenting cells seems like a good idea. Thanks

Hi - sorry for the long delay. I was pushing to meet a manuscript revision deadline. My raster is comprised of continuous values of ecosystem “uniqueness”, calculated from outputs of a GDM model. I want to identify and quantify spatial patterns to inform conservation prioritization. Thank you

I think Tom prefers specimens too. He (Tom) is largely retired too.

Tom Neily is the provincial expert. Sean Haughian is also very well informed

It appears most spatial pattern metrics are applied to categorical representations of landscapes. Are there many options for continuous landscapes patterns?

Not many people eat big feeds of Aronia. Must take a while to pick that much too
