Changes in organ size and nutrient reserves of arctic terns (Sterna paradisaea) breeding near a High Arctic polynya

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2020
The arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea) is a ubiquitous migratory seabird of the High Arctic, currently thought to be in decline in most of the circumpolar world, but surprisingly little is known of its biology at high latitudes.

Towards Space-like Photometric Precision from the Ground with Beam-Shaping Diffusers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We demonstrate a path to hitherto unachievable differential photometric precisions from the ground, both in the optical and near-infrared (NIR), using custom-fabricated beam-shaping diffusers produced using specialized nanofabrication techniques.

Eclipse Ice Core Accumulation and Stable Isotope Variability as an Indicator of North Pacific Climate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The high accumulation rate and negligible amount of melt at Eclipse Icefield (3017 m) in the Saint Elias Range of Yukon, Canada, allows for the preservation of a high-resolution isotopic and glaciochemical records valuable for reconstruction of climatic ...

Nest-site habitat partitioning by Arctic, Common, and Roseate terns

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology
When closely related species that share aspects of their habitat niches nest in sympatry, selection is expected to favor species-specific differences in nest-site selection that allow birds to partition habitat. We tested habitat-partitioning theory in a

Pre-breeding foraging ecology of three tern species nesting in the Gulf of Maine

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2022
A variety of seabird species migrate annually from wintering grounds in the Southern Hemisphere to the Gulf of Maine, USA to breed and raise their young.

Reactions of ground-nesting marine birds to human disturbance in the Canadian Arctic

open access: yesArctic Science, 2016
I studied the reactions of five ground-nesting marine bird species (Arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea), Sabine’s gull (Xema sabini), common eider (Somateria mollissima), long-tailed duck (Clangula hyemalis), and Ross’ gull (Rhodostethia rosea)) breeding in ...

Prediction of monthly Arctic sea ice concentrations using satellite and reanalysis data based on convolutional neural networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Changes in Arctic sea ice affect atmospheric circulation, ocean current, and polar ecosystems. There have been unprecedented decreases in the amount of Arctic sea ice due to global warming.

Semi-Supervised Fine-Grained Image Categorization Using Transfer Learning With Hierarchical Multi-Scale Adversarial Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Fine-grained image categorization is still a challenging computer vision problem in recent years. Most of existing methods highly rely on massive labeled data which are scarce in many real world applications.
