Big Bird: A global dataset of birds in drone imagery annotated to species level

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Drones are a valuable tool for surveying birds, but manually detecting and identifying birds in drone images is costly. We assembled a diverse dataset of 23 865 images of birds captured with 21 different drones across 11 countries. We labelled 4824 of these images, detailing the location, species, posture category, age category, and sex of 49 990 birds

A half century of monitoring reveals contrasting survival responses of Icelandic seabirds to climate and fisheries pressures

Ibis, EarlyView.
Seabirds serve as key indicators of marine environmental changes, with adult survival being a critical parameter for assessing population health. Iceland hosts some of the largest seabird populations in the North Atlantic, making it a valuable location for studying long‐term trends in seabird demographics.

The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment

Ibis, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.
