Can edge AI mitigate environmental effects on camera trap performance?
A camera trap enabled with edge artificial intelligence (AI) mitigated the effects of increased air temperature on the probability of false positive detections, but at the cost of an increased probability of missed detections. Other environmental variables affected camera trap performance differently, suggesting the need to account for camera trap ...

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras
We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

ABSTRACT We employ state‐space models to analyse the trend, seasonal component and cycle of farmgate milk prices in Balkan countries, namely Greece, Bulgaria and Slovenia, and in Hungary. We split the time span in 2016 to assess whether the dairy policies undertaken until the abolition of the milk quota system have affected the price cycles.
