Modernizing environmental data management for ecological research, management, and conservation at regional scales

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We developed a web GIS system that delivers geospatial data for Wyoming and the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) using cloud‐optimized formats and open‐source tools to support regional ecological research and management. Using pronghorn as an example, we combined observed locations with environmental covariates from our geospatial library to map ...

Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) prefer inoculated peanuts over whole‐kernel corn in cafeteria‐style study

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
In this study, we explored bait preference of wild pigs (Sus scrofa), a highly invasive species where primary removal efforts include the use of bait and corral‐style trapping. In addition, we investigated preferences of a common nontarget to identify a bait that is preferred by wild pigs and not by white‐tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus).

Exploration and Exploitation: A Study on Sample Efficiency in Reinforcement Learning With Multifaceted Curiosity Rewards and Adaptive Experience Replay Utilisation in Sparse Reward Environments

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, the widespread application of deep reinforcement learning (DRL) in autonomous systems has highlighted the importance of achieving high sample efficiency under sparse reward conditions. To improve sample efficiency in sparse reward environments, this paper proposes a reinforcement learning framework built upon the Soft Actor ...

Arc Resistance Enhancement of Converter Transformer Tank Through Structural Improvements: Simulation and Experimental Validation

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Currently, limited research exists on the structural response and protection methods of the converter transformer tank for ± 800 kV ultra‐high voltage direct current transmission project to high energy arc faults. This research investigates the dynamic response and the vulnerable areas of the ultra‐high voltage converter transformer under the ...

Varying hydraulic strategies within leaves, stems and roots of coexisting desert shrubs

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Effective and continuous root‐to‐leaf hydraulic transport is crucial for plant survival and growth during drought. However, the capacity to resist hydraulic dysfunction remains understudied in leaves and roots, especially for desert shrubs.
