Needle in a haystack: Holocene history of European larch in Central Europe revisited

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Defining nativity of species is crucial for their management. However, this is a complex task, especially for species that have been used and spread by humans for a long time. We combined paleoecological records with extensive genetic data to investigate the Holocene history of European larch—a common and economically important tree species in Central ...

The functional role of ants in no‐till cropping systems

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Ants provide valuable ecosystem services in tropical agriculture, but their roles in temperate row crops remain poorly understood. Conservation practices such as no‐till farming and cover cropping support ant communities that contribute to pest suppression, weed seed removal, and soil quality, which can increase crop productivity.

Dynamic multi‐objective optimisation of complex networks based on evolutionary computation

open access: yesIET Networks, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract As the problems concerning the number of information to be optimised is increasing, the optimisation level is getting higher, the target information is more diversified, and the algorithms are becoming more complex; the traditional algorithms such as particle swarm and differential evolution are far from being able to deal with this situation ...

Forensic Hydraulic Analysis of Floodplain Connectivity Driven by Historical Beaver Dams in Colorado Headwater Streams

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As ecosystem engineers, beavers (Castor canadensis) modify river corridor form through dam building. When beavers are removed from a river corridor, their unmaintained dams wash out, altering the stream's hydrologic regime. The assumption that beaver dams increase floodplain connectivity is frequently presumed but has not been directly ...

Inferring Brown Bear Hair Snare Interactions by Automatically Detecting Bipedalism on Camera Trap Images Using Pose Estimation and a Multilayer Perceptron

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study proposes an automated method to infer brown bear hair snare interactions by detecting bipedal behavior in camera‐trap images using a pose estimation model and a multilayer perceptron (MLP). A YOLO‐based model, fine‐tuned from humans and dogs to a custom dataset, achieved high performance (≈93% keypoint precision and ≈96% classification ...

Passive Acoustic Identification of Social Groups in the Hainan Gibbon

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Passive acoustic monitoring offers a non‐invasive means of assessing visually hard‐to‐survey wildlife species with distinctive vocalizations. We evaluated whether deep learning can identify Hainan gibbon (Nomascus hainanus) social groups from their calls.

A Comparison of Mobile Laser Scanning Data Acquisition Methods in Closed Forest, Open Woodland and Sub‐Alpine Woodland Ecosystems

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that the mobile laser scanning (MLS) sampling density required to reliably characterise vegetation structure increases with a site's structural complexity. Applying a five‐level acquisition framework across open woodland, closed forest and sub‐alpine woodland ecosystems, we found that longer scanning paths increased the ...

How Passive Acoustic and Traditional Monitoring Estimate Bird Diversity Across Habitats

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We compared traditional bird counts (PC) with passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) in a heterogeneous Alpine landscape. PAM recorded twice as many species, with a strong correlation between species richness and the bird counts (rs = 0.71); however, there were significant differences depending on habitat type.
