Trans‐oceanic migration and wind utilization by Amur Falcons (Falco amurensis)
The Amur Falcon Falco amurensis performs one of the world's longest raptor migrations, involving a non‐stop crossing of the Indian Ocean of approximately 2800 km. While the existence of this route is known, the mechanistic details of wind exploitation and seasonal navigation remain to be fully elucidated.

Random‐key optimization for 2D irregular packing with reusable area evaluation
Abstract The diverse constraints of industrial applications lead to variants of two‐dimensional (2D) irregular packing problems that require tailored solution methods. This paper addresses a real‐world industrial challenge by proposing a new problem definition, the maximum reusable contiguous area problem (MRCAP), and a novel metric, the maximum ...

Here, we investigated the effects of different levels of habitat heterogeneity and of ecological improvement of habitat to increase foraging resources on wild bee communities in Austria and Luxembourg. We found that ecological improvement was important in Luxembourg for species richness and abundance but less so in Austria; here, habitat heterogeneity ...

Each year, billions of animals undertake migratory journeys, resulting in large transfers of energy across the globe. Population declines in many migratory species have affected these, reducing ecosystem resilience. We quantify the value lost and show how conserving migratory species can contribute to climate change adaptation and mitigation, and ...
