Innovative numerical modeling to investigate local scouring problems induced by fluvial structures

, 2012
The local scouring problems induced by fluvial structures have been traditionally investigated by means of scaled physical models that allow to compare on a quality level different design solutions and to search for the better configuration from the ...

Performance comparison of four polymeric ultrafiltration membranes for wool scouring effluent treatment

The water footprint of wool scouring could be reduced with membrane filtration of scouring effluent, allowing recycling of purified washing water. This study compares the performance of four commercially available polymeric ultrafiltration membranes for ...

Divergence Linked to Possible Ecological Speciation in Blind Mole Rats: Integration of Thermal Biology and Bite Force in the Upper Galilee Blind Mole Rat (Nannospalax galili)

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Basalt‐dwelling blind mole rats maintain lower body temperatures, show greater post‐digging thermal increases, and dig more efficiently than those from rendzina soils. Although metabolic rates and bite force did not differ between populations, these thermal and physiological shifts align with the greater mechanical resistance and seasonal hypoxia of ...

Spatial Patterns of Avian Stable Isotopes Reveal Ecological Impacts of Climate and Land‐Use Change

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Increased feather δ15N values with pasture coverage reveal an elevated baseline δ15N in grazing landscapes, while broader isotopic niches in farmland habitats reflect agricultural expansion's significant influence on resource use patterns of the avian community.

A Lightweight Deep Neural Network for Individual Leopard Identification: Supporting Movement Ecology in the Taihang Mountains of Henan

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We developed LeoNet, a lightweight deep learning model for leopard individual identification. It achieved 97.42% accuracy and was robust to age‐related pattern changes and unfamiliar individuals. Applied to camera‐trap data from the Taihang Mountains, LeoNet identified 41 wild North China leopards and generated individual‐level records to support ...
