Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Monitoring programs of vulnerable megafauna increasingly rely on aerial surveys from drones or planes fitted with cameras. However, automated methods are still lacking to accurately count individuals across entire surveys. Here, we leverage a tracking‐by‐detection framework to not only detect individuals but also link the resulting detections across ...

Updated Chorotypes of Terrestrial Vertebrates Shed New Light on Zoogeographical Regions in China
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Chorotype represents a fundamental concept for identifying groups of species that share similar distribution patterns. However, the last comprehensive revision of animal chorotypes in China was performed more than a decade ago. Here, we update the chorotype classifications for 1040 species and propose an updated zoogeographical regionalization scheme ...
