Thermal drone observations capture fine‐scale population decline of short‐tailed shearwaters

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Researchers used thermal drone technology to monitor short‐tailed shearwater colonies in Tasmania from 2019 to 2024, discovering a concerning 27% decline in chick numbers during this period. The study estimates that the global population of these seabirds has dropped dramatically by 41% since 1985, falling from 23 million to approximately 13.5 million ...

Applying computer vision to accelerate monitoring and analysis of bird incubation behaviors: a case study using common eider nest camera footage

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Visualization of the pipeline is divided into two primary segments: automated (i.e., the user adapts the code directly to build a custom computer vision model) and human‐in‐the‐loop (i.e., the user manually evaluates the output of the model). In step 1, raw imagery data are selected for training and testing datasets; ideally, these datasets are ...

Critical Imagination for Transformative Agency: Pedagogies for Science Teacher Education

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper theorizes transformative agency and its potential to promote justice‐oriented science teacher education. We argue that science education often acts as a disimagination machine, constraining possibilities for envisioning and enacting transformative change. To contest this reality, we draw on critical perspectives in science education,

“It Looks as if They Threw the Entire Periodic Table Into the River”: A Decolonial Perspective for Chemistry Education in the Context of Environmental Injustices

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article I explore the case of the Mariana dam disaster in 2015 in Brazil seeking to contribute to reflections about the role of chemistry and chemistry education in environmental injustices. Drawing on stories about this disaster shared in the Dead River Podcast (2024), on wider literature and on other cases of environmental injustices

From Sustainability to Regeneration: Mapping the Conceptual Foundations and Future Directions of Regenerative Development

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the theoretical and conceptual foundations of regenerative development and its relationship to sustainable development. Amid deepening global polycrises and growing disenchantment with the term “sustainability,” there is increasing interest in regeneration as a paradigm that moves beyond harm reduction and efficiency ...

Self‐regulation, corruption, and competitiveness in extractive industries: Making transparency pay

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Self‐regulation is often proposed as a substitute for government regulation. We examine a setting in which a subset of firms voluntarily committed to transparency standards despite immediate competitive disadvantages, not merely to preempt regulation but to succeed under future mandatory rules they helped enact through ...

STEM Faculty Professional Development: Measuring the Impact on College Student Grades and Identifying Critical Program Components

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Higher education institutions commonly provide faculty professional development (PD) in teaching and learning, with the goal of enhancing student outcomes by improving instructional quality. Yet few existing studies link PD participation with student outcome measures.

Drone‐based radiotelemetry and imagery systems provide an advantage over traditional techniques for estimating survival of dependent juveniles

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We used drone‐based radiotelemetry and multispectral imagery to estimate detection and survival probabilities of blue‐winged teal broods in Saskatchewan, Canada. Weekly brood survival probabilities, estimated via Cormack‐Jolly‐Seber models, increased with age and were comparable between drone methods.
