📡 Detection models are only as reliable as the field data used to validate them.

🌱 Nice work by our sister project @stella-horizon-eu.bsky.social, inspecting plane trees at high risk of Ceratocystis platani, which is also one of FORSAID's target species.
🌿 Field validation in Evia, Greece.
On 16-17 September, AUA & BOKU joined forces at the STELLA forest pilot to collect ground-truth data for model validation and inspect plane trees in areas at high risk for Ceratocystis platani. 🛰️

Το μεταχρωματικό έλκος του πλατάνου είναι η πιο καταστροφική ασθένεια του είδους παγκοσμίως, που οφείλεται στον μύκητα Ceratocystis platani. Στην Ελλάδα εντοπίστηκε για πρώτη φορά το 2003 και έχει αφανίσει χιλιάδες δένδρα, συμπεριλαμβανομένων αιωνόβιων μνημείων της φύσης. Στην περιοχή του Δήμου Θέρμου έχει εμφανιστεί με ένταση η ασθένεια που πλήττει τα πλατάνια, με αποτέλεσμα το […]

In this paper, the authors specifically look at how stylophoran respiratory structures evolved and determined that the most basal structures did not originate from the same structures that gave rise to gills and oral orifices in other deuterostomes.

Rapora Göre Çınar Kanseri Hastalığının Tedavisi Bulunmuyor
Marmara Üniversitesi Fen Fakültesi ve İstanbul Üniversitesi Cerrahpaşa Orman Fakültesi tarafından yapılan raporlara göre Ceratocystis fimbriata hastalığının çözümü bulunamadı. Hasta ağaçların hızla uzaklaştırılması gerektiği vurgulanıyor. İBB'ye sunulan 'Kapsamlı Eylem Planı' çerçevesinde çınar yerine çitlembik, ıhlamur, dişbudak ve atkestanesi türlerinin dikilmesi planlanıyor. #haberler

I suspect barges dump black water into our thin canal when no one’s looking. The old plane trees lining it are being cut down thanks to the Ceratocystis bug. They’re planting saplings, but I don’t have a century to wait. So I’m leaning heavily on Tilly dog’s gorgeously scarred beaches for my fix 😂
