Aquatic Diversity and Fishing Practices at Tell Tayinat (Türkiye) in the Iron Age

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While agrarian societies of the Iron Age Eastern Mediterranean relied predominantly on crops and herding of domestic stock for subsistence, local wild aquatic fauna offered a welcomed enrichment, and when opportunities occurred, it could have been a staple in the human diet.

Coverage‐based rarefaction fails to quantify relative species richness

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Coverage‐based rarefaction (CBR) is a high‐profile tool for assessing biodiversity that provides relative species richness estimates by leveraging the Good‐Turing index u to interpolate. In contrast to alternatives such as the Shannon and Simpson indices, CBR's main appeal is providing values in units of species. CBR is tested against a series of other

Image Detection of Mosquitos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
This thesis presents a solution of CNN oriented object detection to an input of a video of mosquitos surrounding a mesh. It is to improve upon the results of a previous approach, which was to detect the mosquitos with a SoftMax classifier in which a ...

Characterising fine‐scale habitat associations for range expanding species with limited data: a case study on the West Nile Virus vector, Culex modestus

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The ecological and epidemiological consequences of species expanding into new areas are growing concomitantly with climate change. Those aiming to monitor species expanding in range must make optimal use of finite resources to deliver effective surveillance capable of detecting new incursions and range expansions.

Buildings as accidental habitat: Where animals nest, sleep and forage

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Animals have long inhabited human buildings alongside us, but our understanding comes from isolated studies, such as reports of a possum in the roof or a bat in our walls. What we lack is the building's perspective: which building features actually serve as habitat and for whom?

Aportaciones al conocimiento de los mosquitos (Diptera, Culicidae) de alta montaña presentes en la Península Ibérica

open access: yesPirineos: Revista de Ecología de Montaña, 2009
Se realizaron diversos muestreos larvarios de mosquitos (Diptera, Culicidae) en varias regiones montañosas de la España peninsular. Pese a que se recolectaron un total de 2796 ejemplares pertenecientes a 18 especies, el 72.5 % de estos hallazgos engloba ...

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.
