Divergent post-breeding spatial habitat use of Laysan and black-footed albatross
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Understanding the at-sea movements of wide-ranging seabird species throughout their annual cycle is essential for their conservation and management. Habitat use and resource partitioning of Laysan (Phoebastria immutabilis) and black-footed (Phoebastria ...

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2019 The short-tailed albatross Phoebastria albatrus was nearly driven to extinction in the early 20th century, but is one of the most common seabirds found in coastal archaeological sites in Japan, the Aleutian Islands, and the Channel Islands off southern ...

Design and Simulation of Gradient Wind Gliding Bionic Vehicle [PDF]
Hangkong bingqiOne of the important ways to break the endurance bottleneck of aircraft is to apply the flight strategy of albatrosses obtaining energy from gradient wind fields to glide thousands of miles on aircraft.

Flight speed and performance of the wandering albatross with respect to wind
Movement Ecology, 2018 BackgroundAlbatrosses and other large seabirds use dynamic soaring to gain sufficient energy from the wind to travel large distances rapidly and with little apparent effort.

Wind field and sex constrain the flight speeds of central-place foraging albatrosses [PDF]
, 2009 By extracting energy from the highly dynamic wind and wave fields that typify pelagic habitats, albatrosses are able to proceed almost exclusively by gliding flight.

Label Relation Graphs Enhanced Hierarchical Residual Network for Hierarchical Multi-Granularity Classification [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Hierarchical multi-granularity classification (HMC) assigns hierarchical multi-granularity labels to each object and focuses on encoding the label hierarchy, e.g., ["Albatross", "Laysan Albatross"] from coarse-to-fine levels. However, the definition of what is fine-grained is subjective, and the image quality may affect the identification.

Low Temperature Decomposition of Polystyrene
Applied Sciences, 2020 Styrene oligomers (SOs), of styrene (styrene monomer, SM), 1,3-diphenylpropane (styrene dimer, SD1), 2,4-diphenyl-1-butene (styrene dimer, SD2) and 2,4,6-triphenyl-1-hexene (styrene trimer, ST), had been detected in the natural environments far from ...
