Behavioral response of moose Alces alces to summer heat stress

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Minnesota moose are heat‐stressed during summers, which is adversely impacting their survival. We used both movement and activity data to explore the behavioral responses of Minnesota moose experiencing heat stress, termed ‘hot moose events' or HMEs, to understand how both ambient temperature and available habitat contribute to the ability of these ...

The relative abundance of crop and natural food influences crop consumption by brown bears

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Many mammalian species now inhabit anthropogenic landscapes, and human–wildlife conflicts, particularly pertaining to crop damage, have become a significant issue. To develop more effective measures to limit crop damage caused by wildlife, it is crucial to identify how natural and anthropogenic food availability affect crop use by wildlife in the ...

Variance‐Guided Evolutionary Reinforcement Learning for Multi‐Objective Energy Scheduling in Dairy Farms

open access: yesArtificial Intelligence for Engineering, EarlyView.
This reflects the different optimisation objectives: The MPC formulation in Equation (22) minimises electricity cost together with a weighted thermal‐slack penalty. Its solution is therefore optimal with respect to this combined objective, rather than electricity cost alone.
