Core Project 3 - Exploratories for large-scale and long-term functional biodiversity research: instrumentation and remote sensing

CORE 3提供了关于所有EP和三个探索区整个区域的一套全面的环境信息。核心3将继续提供与以下方面有关的服务：(1)维持300+148个气候站和扩大的一系列实验；(2)提供遥感数据(地面、无人机、机载、卫星)；(3)将这些数据集进行预先和更高级别的处理，形成生物多样性相关环境指数的矢量。此外，(4)将生成并提供基于遥感的土地利用空间数据集，(5)站网络扩展到新的森林地块，并辅之以声学和照片记录。(6)届时将建立一个新的数据库，掌握植物学和动物学项目的相应专门知识并与之协调。(7)联网的传感器以及从遥感数据得出的有意义的指数将用于模拟林冠下非生物样地的林地异质性和森林试验林隙的详细演替结构。在草原，我们将提供地理空间产品，使用最先进的机器学习方法描述周围地块的景观。Core 3继续以服务为导向，并为探索实验室提供研究基础设施的基本组件。

Core 3 provides a comprehensive set of environmental information on all EPs and for the entire area of the three Exploratories. Core 3 will continue its services related to (i) the maintenance of the 300+148 climate stations and the extended set of experiments, (ii) the provision of remote sensing data (terrestrial, UAV, airborne, satellite), and (iii) the pre- and higher-level processing of those data sets into a vector of biodiversity relevant environmental indices. In addition, (iv) spatially explicit remote sensing-based datasets on land use will be generated and provided, and (v) the station network extended to the new forest plots, complemented by acoustical and photo recordings. (vi) A new data base will be implemented then, seizing the corresponding expertise in and coordinating with the botanical and zoological projects. (vii) The networked sensors together with meaningful indices derived from remote sensing data will be used to model below canopy abiotic plot heterogeneity on the forest plots and detailed succession structure in the gaps of the forest experiments. In grasslands we will provide geospatial products which characterize the landscape in the plot surrounding using state-of-the machine learning methods Core 3 continues to be strongly service oriented and provides essential components of the research infrastructure for the Exploratories.
