A Macroinvertebrate‐Based Flow Index Elucidates Responses to Environmental Water in a Highly Regulated River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Macroinvertebrate‐based flow indices have potential application to guiding environmental flow allocations and monitoring their effectiveness, but their sensitivity to such flows has seldom been tested. We examined the response of the Australian Macroinvertebrate Flow Index (AMFI), calculated from family‐level data, to three stages of ...

Ground‐based robotic remote sensing for standardized biodiversity monitoring in coastal habitats

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Illustrated workflow of the proposed citizen‐to‐robot monitoring pipeline: (i) expert‐validated citizen observations are translated into AI models, (ii) deployed on a ground‐based robotic platform for proximal sensing of coastal dune habitats, (iii) enabling standardized detection of ecological targets (e.g., Pancratium maritimum & Brithys crini), and (

Delineating Sources and Estimating Cadmium Bioaccumulation and Susceptibility Differences among Aquatic Insects.

open access: yes, 2007
Human activities such as mining and smelting have altered the distribution of trace metals in the environment, resulting in trace metal pollution of aquatic ecosystems worldwide.

Improving Demographics and Conservation of Fishes Through Multi‐Frame Individual Distinctions by Size (MIDS)

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
MIDS (Multi‐frame Individual Distinctions by Size) is a new software package for improving how fish populations are assessed using stereo‐video data. By using the length, error and statistical inference of measurements, MIDS distinguishes individuals across multiple video frames and autonomously removes repeat observations, regardless of when the ...

Repurposing Bird‐Based Acoustic Models for Amphibian Surveys: Strengths and Limitations in Real‐World Deployments

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
In this study, we developed AnuraSearch, an open‐source classifier for 11 Ukrainian amphibian species, by repurposing the avian BirdNET algorithm via transfer learning to process over 18,000 h of autonomous acoustic recordings. Although the model demonstrated high precision and successfully reconstructed detailed seasonal and diel vocal activity ...

A Systematic Review of Participatory Science Approaches in K–12 Ecological Monitoring

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Participatory science has emerged as a vital educational approach for engaging K–12 learners in authentic scientific inquiry while generating data for ecological monitoring. This systematic review synthesizes 72 empirical studies published between 2006 and 2025 that involved K–12 students in ecological monitoring projects.

Probabilistic risk assessment of the environmental impacts of pesticides in the Crocodile (west) Marico catchment, North-West Province [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
External agricultural inputs, such as pesticides, may pose risks to aquatic ecosystems and affect aquatic populations, communities and ecosystems. To predict these risks, a tiered approach was followed, incorporating both the PRIMET and PERPEST models ...
