From snapshots to continuous estimates: Augmenting citizen science with computer vision for fish monitoring

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents an end‐to‐end computer‐vision pipeline for monitoring fish migration using underwater video. We integrate field camera deployment, annotation, model training and automated in‐season counting to generate continuous, high‐resolution data on river herring spawning migration.

Semi‐automated seal detection on the Western Antarctic Peninsula: an unsupervised machine learning approach for detecting ice seals in aerial survey data

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents a semi‐automated, rule‐based image analysis pipeline to detect ice seals in aerial surveys of the Western Antarctic Peninsula during an unusually low sea ice year. By using simple hierarchical clustering instead of deep learning, the method substantially reduced human annotation effort while achieving 82% recall, identifying 758 ...

Retrospective image analysis for long‐term demography using Google Earth imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that high‐resolution Google Earth imagery, combined with minimal field validation, enables retrospective tracking of individual invasive plants. The image shows one of the monitored individuals of Opuntia sp. in Greece. Our approach reveals long‐term demographic patterns, recruitment dynamics, and spatial expansion without continuous ...

Prisoners' Perceptions and Their Agency on Sustainability Transformation in Finland

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability transformation is essential for our time, requiring the involvement of all citizens. Several prisons worldwide have developed various sustainable development (SD) programs for prisoners. However, it remains unclear how prisoners perceive SD, which can be a significant obstacle to their agency. This study explores the perceptions

Horizons and Challenges: An Overview of Strategies for Circular Economy Education in Schools

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Education is fundamental to preparing future professionals for the transition to a circular economy (CE), and it requires the development of competences from the earliest stages of schooling. Nevertheless, teachers continue to face challenges in integrating the circular economy into classroom practice. This article presents a literature review

Social, Technological, Economic, and Policy Factors in the Circular Economy Transition in Brazil

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A well‐functioning circular economy (CE) integrates resilience across economic, environmental, and social dimensions. This study identifies key drivers and barriers to Brazil's CE transition through 20 semi‐structured interviews with stakeholders. Major sociocultural barriers include inadequate education and limited CE awareness, while growing
