How do we feed grazing livestock in the future? A case for knowledge‐driven grazing systems
Grass and Forage Science, Volume 77, Issue 3, Page 153-166, September 2022., 2022 Abstract Grassland degradation has been observed worldwide and is often a result of overexploitation or abandonment. Knowledge‐driven and precise grazing management is required to use grasslands' potential in a sustainable way. Information gaps lead to inefficiencies in grazing land management and ecosystem service provision.

A perspective on machine learning methods in turbulence modeling
GAMM-Mitteilungen, Volume 44, Issue 1, March 2021., 2021 Abstract This work presents a review of the current state of research in data‐driven turbulence closure modeling. It offers a perspective on the challenges and open issues but also on the advantages and promises of machine learning (ML) methods applied to parameter estimation, model identification, closure term reconstruction, and beyond, mostly from ...

Perspectives on conservation grazing: The need for monitoring and communication
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 3, July–September 2025.We compiled detailed data on the pattern of conservation grazing at Ainsdale Sand Dunes National Nature Reserve over 23 years. This recovered data shows how patterns of conservation grazing (timing, duration, frequency and intensity) have changed over time, demonstrate the value of hidden data sources and the importance of collaboration between ...

More Than a Fencing System? Testing the Validity of Virtual Fencing Collars for Animal Monitoring on Pasture [PDF]
High labour requirements for fencing and animal monitoring appear to be general obstacles for the wider use of pastureland for grazing livestock. Virtual fencing (VF) enables a less laborious pasture management.
