A Dolphin is a Dolphin is a Dolphin? Multimedia Enriched Learning Objects in NEMO [PDF]

2009 Ninth IEEE International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies, 2009
In this paper we present a concept for integrating Multimedia-Enriched Learning Objects (MELOs) within a unifying technological framework for schools. First, we discuss the general role of objects for child development and learning. We then outline the framework architecture of the proposed Networked Environment for Multimedia Objects (NEMO ...

Food provisioning increases the risk of injury in a long-lived marine top predator [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2016
Food provisioning of wildlife is a major concern for management and conservation agencies worldwide because it encourages unnatural behaviours in wild animals and increases each individual's risk for injury and death. Here we investigate the contributing

Sustainable Fisheries Management and the Welfare of Bycaught and Entangled Cetaceans

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2018
The incidental capture of cetaceans and other protected marine wildlife in fishing gear has significant welfare implications. Many thousands of cetaceans are bycaught in fishing gear in European waters and hundreds of thousands die globally.

Systematic Determination of Herpesvirus in Free-Ranging Cetaceans Stranded in the Western Mediterranean: Tissue Tropism and Associated Lesions

Viruses, 2021
The monitoring of herpesvirus infection provides useful information when assessing marine mammals’ health. This paper shows the prevalence of herpesvirus infection (80.85%) in 47 cetaceans stranded on the coast of the Valencian Community, Spain.

A deep learning approach to photo–identification demonstrates high performance on two dozen cetacean species

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Researchers can investigate many aspects of animal ecology through noninvasive photo–identification. Photo–identification is becoming more efficient as matching individuals between photos is increasingly automated.

Resting Metabolic Rate and Lung Function in Wild Offshore Common Bottlenose Dolphins, Tursiops truncatus, Near Bermuda

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Diving mammals have evolved a suite of physiological adaptations to manage respiratory gases during extended breath-hold dives. To test the hypothesis that offshore bottlenose dolphins have evolved physiological adaptations to improve their ability for ...

A 32-mV Supply Ring Oscillator Composed of Modified Schmitt Trigger Delay Cells for Integrated Start-Up Circuits in DC Energy Harvesting Systems

IEEE Access
Implementing fully integrated start-up energy harvesting (EH) systems is very challenging. The most popular start-up circuit implementations use a low-voltage ring oscillator (RO).
