Formal Approach to Safety‐Driven Dynamic Procedure Modeling

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ensuring the safety of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) is a growing concern as the number of UAS grows increasingly fast. Regulatory bodies are in the process of tackling this problem by issuing standards and recommendations to be met by UAS designers.

Extending SysML v2 for Safety ‐ Open‐Source Library for the System‐Theoretic Process Analysis

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Safety challenges in automated transport systems create the need for a strong design and safety coupling. In this regard, the second version of the Systems Modeling Language (SysML v2) offers new integration opportunities with extensibility features such as libraries.

Monitoring active osprey nests with drones is more time efficient and less disturbing than conventional methods

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Drones are used to monitor bird nesting sites at less accessible locations, such as on cliffs, human infrastructure, or within the tree canopy. While there are a growing number of studies documenting avian behavioral responses to various drones, there is a continued need to monitor taxa‐specific responses to different drone models. We explored both the

A high‐altitude thermal infrared method for estimating moose abundance and demography in Rocky Mountain National Park, USA

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To

Monitoring wildlife using long‐endurance solar‐electric UAVs

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
This report discusses the effectiveness of using small solar‐electric UAV (uncrewed aerial vehicles) for aerial wildlife monitoring. We review four years of aerial wildlife monitoring missions using a 5.5‐m wingspan, solar‐electric UAV that was equipped with a gimballed IR/RGB camera.

Micro‐habitat selection by boreal woodland caribou improves access to food

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Bio‐logging sensors attached to radiotelemetry receivers have great potential to transform our understanding of the ecological, physiological, and energetic constraints that shape patterns of wildlife movement under field conditions. We used video camera collars to assess microhabitat selectivity by woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus in boreal forests ...
