The great potential of remote sensing technologies for operational use in sustainable forest management is addressed in this book, which is the reprint of papers published in the Remote Sensing Special Issue “Operationalization of Remote Sensing Solutions for Sustainable Forest Management”. The studies come from three continents and cover multiple remote sensing systems (including terrestrial mobile laser scanning, unmanned aerial vehicles, airborne laser scanning, and satellite data acquisition) and a diversity of data processing algorithms, with a focus on machine learning approaches. The focus of the studies ranges from identification and characterization of individual trees to deriving national- or even continental-level forest attributes and maps. There are studies carefully describing exercises on the case study level, and there are also studies introducing new methodologies for transdisciplinary remote sensing applications. Even though most of the authors look forward to continuing their research, nearly all studies introduced are ready for operational use or have already been implemented in practical forestry.

Uncovering the vital role of interpreters, dubbers and subtitlers in global film, Nornes examines the relationships between moving-image media and translation and contends that film was a globalized medium from its beginning and that its transnational traffic has been greatly influenced by interpreters.
In the movies, government often finds itself in a variety of roles from villain to supporting cast, and rarely, if ever, the hero. A frequent component of that role is the bureaucracy and as documented in Civil Servants on the Silver Screen: Hollywood’s Depiction of Government and Bureaucrats, bureaucrats are routinely found on screen. This book investigates how government bureaucrats are portrayed in the top ten box office grossing films from 2000 through 2015. Perhaps unsurprisingly, government is generally portrayed poorly, while individual government bureaucrats are typically depicted positively. These images of government on screen are particularly important given the ability of movies to influence the attitudes and perceptions of its audiences. The nature of these depictions and potential implications are considered as bureaucrats in film are categorized.
Stefan Nertinger entwickelt geeignete Methoden und Ansätze zur Integration von Material Flow Cost Accounting (MFCA) und Carbon Footprint (CF), um Unternehmen dabei zu unterstützen, nachhaltigen Erfolg zu erreichen. Seine drei Integrationsmodelle zeigen innovative methodische Verknüpfungen zwischen den Ansätzen der Ökobilanzierung und der Kostenrechnung. Die dargestellte Konzeption des integrierten Instruments als PDCA-im-PDCA im Nachhaltigkeitscontrolling und -management bietet das Potenzial einer kontinuierlichen Verbesserung und Weiterentwicklung der Nachhaltigkeitsleistung des Unternehmens und der Generierung nachhaltigen Erfolgs.
