A high‐altitude thermal infrared method for estimating moose abundance and demography in Rocky Mountain National Park, USA

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species.

Urban bats show dietary flexibility in aquatic arthropod consumption at urban and rural waterbodies

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban waterbodies are critical for biodiversity and provide feeding grounds for insectivorous bats. Yet, how urbanisation affects bats' food choices at urban waterbodies and the role of emergent aquatic arthropods remain poorly understood. We compared the diet of three urban bat species – Vespadelus vulturnus, Chalinolobus gouldii,and Myotis macropus –

Experimental assessment of large mammal population estimates from airborne thermal videography

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Wildlife resource management requires reliable, fast, and affordable methods of surveying wildlife populations to develop and adaptively adjust policies. Thermal video from drones can yield high rates of detection over large areas with relative speed and safety.

Temporal, species‐specific variation in activity patterns of bats (Chiroptera) along a boreal river basin in Västerbotten, Sweden

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Seasonal variation in photoperiods, energetic demands, and reproductive constraints are expected to strongly influence bat activity at high latitudes, yet empirical evidence from boreal systems is limited. We used passive acoustic monitoring to examine spatial, temporal, and feeding activity patterns of bats along a boreal river basin in Sweden (64°N ...

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

High 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 ...
