A Multi‐Method Approach to Assessing Barrier Effectiveness in Preventing the Spread of Invasive Signal Crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus)

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Relieving barriers and increasing free flowing rivers is a global imperative to restore habitat connectivity for migratory fish stocks. While reducing river fragmentation will certainly improve biodiversity, the spread of non‐native species throughout a river system may be facilitated as an inadvertent outcome.

Automated object detection based on YOLOv11 for monitoring benthic population dynamics: A new approach combining photogrammetry and open‐source GIS tools applied to sea cucumbers

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This research established a new object detection model based on YOLOv11 to recognise benthic organisms, specifically sea cucumbers, by utilising high‐resolution photogrammetric‐based orthomosaics acquired along infralittoral Mediterranean Sea beds. The model demonstrated impressive performance metrics and, when combined with the Deepness plugin for the

Extracellular vesicles drive stress-induced antibiotic resistance spread in soil

open access: yesEnvironmental Science and Ecotechnology
Antimicrobial resistance threatens millions of lives annually, yet its acceleration by non-antibiotic pollutants remains poorly understood. Artificial sweeteners, now ubiquitous in soils and waters, are known individually to promote conjugative transfer ...

Inferring Brown Bear Hair Snare Interactions by Automatically Detecting Bipedalism on Camera Trap Images Using Pose Estimation and a Multilayer Perceptron

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study proposes an automated method to infer brown bear hair snare interactions by detecting bipedal behavior in camera‐trap images using a pose estimation model and a multilayer perceptron (MLP). A YOLO‐based model, fine‐tuned from humans and dogs to a custom dataset, achieved high performance (≈93% keypoint precision and ≈96% classification ...

Artificial Intelligence for Blue Transformation: A Review of Predictive Modeling and Decision Support Systems in Sustainable Aquaculture

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The FAO's “blue transformation” roadmap necessitates a fundamental shift towards precision aquaculture to meet global food security targets while minimizing environmental footprints. This review provides a comprehensive overview of how artificial intelligence (AI) and decision support systems (DSS) serve as pivotal enablers for the “better ...

Home range and core area characteristics of urban and rural coyotes and red foxes in southern Wisconsin

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Second‐order habitat selection is influenced by a variety of factors, including individual‐ and species‐specific traits and resource requirements, as well as landscape characteristics. By comparing home range characteristics across individuals, species, and landscapes, we can draw conclusions regarding whether and how different factors influence home ...
