Sexing From Seawater: Application of Environmental DNA Beyond Species Detection for Cetaceans

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) flukeprint sampling and ZFX/ZFY gene amplification to determine the sex of killer whales and humpback whales, finding higher PCR success in killer whales but higher sex‐matching success in humpbacks. While eDNA shows promise as a noninvasive alternative to biopsies, further refinement is needed to optimize ...

FInCH: Fast statistical inference for continuous‐time animal movement

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 1437-1459, July 2025.
Abstract It is common for movement ecologists to model individual‐level animal movement in discrete time using methods such as hidden Markov models (HMMs). Although often the fitting of HMMs is computationally efficient, the key assumptions required to model in discrete time become limiting when dealing with temporally irregular data or an animal that ...

Optimal Control Strategy for Stability Performance Improvement of Hybrid Power Systems With Electric Vehicle Integration

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 2772-2787, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The present article explores the frequency control of hybrid power systems integrated with electric vehicles (EVs). The hybrid power system is a complicated nonlinear entity that highlights the significant issue of dynamic control owing to inadequate damping under fluctuating load conditions.

Testing Assumptions for Stable Isotope Analysis of Marine Mammal Dentin Growth Layer Groups

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 39, Issue 9, 15 May 2025.
ABSTRACT Rationale Stable isotope analysis of growth layer groups (GLGs) in mammal dentin is an increasingly prevalent and noninvasive approach to study animal foraging ecology. However, empirical evidence to support assumed proper methodologies for sampling GLGs is lacking.
