Insights into the Middle Pleistocene fauna of South Africa: Zooarchaeology, stable isotopes and dating of Pniel 6

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1120-1139, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The Florisian Land Mammal Age (FLMA; 773‐12 ka) is characterised by specialist, often extinct, grazing as well as wetland species, many of which are no longer present in the southern African interior. Middle Pleistocene FLMA faunal assemblages are rare, particularly those associated with artefacts, limiting reconstruction of environmental ...

Automated extraction of right whale morphometric data from drone aerial photographs

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 438-453, August 2025.
Aerial photogrammetry is a popular non‐invasive method for measuring marine mammal body size, body morphometrics, and body condition, but processing large datasets efficiently remains challenging. We developed a machine learning algorithm using Mask R‐CNN models to automatically measure body morphometrics of southern right whales from aerial ...
