A Sensitive Thermoelectric Respiratory Sensor Using a Hollow‐Square Structure of Cubic Silicon Carbide‐Based Heterojunction

Small, EarlyView.
A sensitive self‐powered respiratory sensor is developed using a hollow‐window structure implemented on a 3C‐SiC/Si heterojunction‐based platform. This design enables the manipulation of thermal transport with the heterojunction regulating the flow of thermally generated charge carriers, yielding a significantly higher output thermal voltage than that ...

Estimating red deer Cervus elaphus population density using drones in a steep and rugged terrain

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Precise and accurate information about population density, crucial for wildlife management, is difficult to obtain for elusive species living in dense forests or steep and inaccessible terrain. Using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), we developed a method for obtaining absolute population estimates of ungulates living in steep, rugged, and partly ...
