Automated calibration of smartphone cameras for 3D reconstruction of mechanical pipes
A framework for the laboratory calibration of smartphone cameras is proposed, introducing new methods for: (i) matching calibration targets; (ii) adjusting target eccentricity error without object‐space target information; and (iii) improving the calibration using a free‐network self‐calibrating bundle adjustment.

Trends and knowledge gaps in field research investigating effects of anthropogenic noise
Abstract Anthropogenic noise is a globally widespread sensory pollutant, recognized as having potentially adverse effects on function, demography, and physiology in wild animals. Human population growth and associated changes in urbanization, transportation, and resource extraction all contribute to anthropogenic noise and are predicted to increase in ...

The effect of group size on sleep in a neotropical bat, Artibeus jamaicensis
Research Highlights We combine behavioral and physiological data to show that Jamaican fruit bats (Artibeus jamaicensis) sleeping in groups may sleep longer than individuals sleeping alone, and that behavior can be used to measure some sleep metrics in wild bats.
