Genetic diversity and relatedness amongst captive saker falcons (Falco cherrug) in the Green Balkans’ Wildlife Rehabilitation and Breeding Centre in Bulgaria [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Data Journal, 2023
The globally endangered saker falcon (Falco cherrug) is currently being re-introduced in Bulgaria, where the falcons are bred in captivity and released through the hacking method. We relied on the birds’ pedigree when forming the breeding pairs from 2011.

Translocation of threatened New Zealand falcons to vineyards increases nest attendance, brooding and feeding rates. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Anthropogenic landscapes can be rich in resources, and may in some cases provide potential habitat for species whose natural habitat has declined. We used remote videography to assess whether reintroducing individuals of the threatened New Zealand falcon

Falcon [PDF]

open access: yesACM Transactions on Architecture and Code Optimization, 2015
Graph algorithms have been shown to possess enough parallelism to keep several computing resources busy—even hundreds of cores on a GPU. Unfortunately, tuning their implementation for efficient execution on a particular hardware configuration of heterogeneous systems consisting of multicore CPUs and GPUs is challenging, time consuming, and error prone.

Activity patterns of Eleonora’s Falcons during the pre-breeding period: the role of habitat composition on the island of Antikythira

open access: yesAvocetta, 2019
Eleonora’s Falcon is well known for its delayed breeding season among European breeding raptors, however, its relatively prolonged pre-breeding period remains to date largely understudied. In this study, we compiled information on the species’ behaviour
