An increasing number of sensors are available for forest ecologists and managers seeking to map attributes of forest canopy cover, forest structure and composition, and their dynamics. This Chapter seeks to put these advances within the context of the needs of forest managers and scientists. To do so, we review the basic physics behind a variety of imagery types, discuss fundamental limitations...

Remotely and selectively turning on and off the magnetization of many micro-scale magnetic actuators could be a great enabling feature in fields such as microrobotics and microfluidics. We present an array of addressable 800 6 800 6 75 mm micropumps made from a composite material whose net magnetic moment can be selectively turned on or off by application of a large magnetic field pulse. The ma...

Remotely keyed encryption schemes (RKESs), introduced by Blaze 6], support high-bandwidth cryptographic applications (such as encrypted video conferences) in which long-lived secrets (such as users' private keys) never leave lower-bandwidth environments such as secure smart-cards. We provide a formal framework in which to study the security of RKESs and give an RKES that satisses our formal sec...
