Spectral characterization of plant diversity in a biodiversity‐enriched oil palm plantation

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
How well can airborne imaging spectroscopy detect plant diversity in vertically complex agroforestry systems? We tested this in a biodiversity‐enriched oil palm plantation in Sumatra, Indonesia, using high‐resolution hyperspectral data. We calculated spectral alpha and beta diversity and compared them to field‐based plant diversity.

Big Bird: A global dataset of birds in drone imagery annotated to species level

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Drones are a valuable tool for surveying birds, but manually detecting and identifying birds in drone images is costly. We assembled a diverse dataset of 23 865 images of birds captured with 21 different drones across 11 countries. We labelled 4824 of these images, detailing the location, species, posture category, age category, and sex of 49 990 birds

“There Are Places Full of Beauty”: Desettling High School Students' Scientific Writing

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study contributes to desettling and expanding expectations about the forms of scientific language that belong in students' scientific writing. The primary empirical focus is the analysis of 52 high school student abstracts articulating community‐based investigations, submitted as part of their participation in a student conference in a ...

From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

Small, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

Opportunities for 2D‐Material‐Based Multifunctional Devices and Systems in Bioinspired Neural Networks

Small, EarlyView.
Bio‐inspired computing offers a route to highly energy‐efficient artificial intelligence. The unique physical properties of two‐dimensional (2D) materials can further enhance such computing approaches. This perspective highlights recent developments in 2D materials‐based neuromorphic devices and discusses future opportunities for integrating such novel
