Threatened cockatoo adapts foraging strategy to survive habitat loss from fire

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Fire regimes are changing across the globe as a result of human‐induced climate change. For granivorous bird species, changes in fire regimes can affect seed availability and the persistence of populations. We investigated the foraging behaviour of Glossy Black Cockatoos Calyptorhynchus lathami halmaturinus, a resource specialist, following large‐scale

Optimal Kiln Dry Allocation for Dry Timber Preparation to Minimize Cost

open access: yesJurnal Teknik Industri: Jurnal Keilmuan dan Aplikasi Teknik Industri, 2019
Optimization models are increasingly developed for planning and scheduling in manufacturing of natural resources. However, the uncertainty of material from natural resources makes it more difficult to develop a model.  In this paper, we concern about the cost of dry timber preparation for finishing process in a wood-board manufacturer.
