Research on Reactive Power Optimization Based on Hybrid Osprey Optimization Algorithm
This paper presents an improved osprey optimization algorithm (IOOA) to solve the problems of slow convergence and local optimality. First, the osprey population is initialized based on the Sobol sequence to increase the initial population’s diversity ...

Evidence of Avian Predation on a Critically Endangered Elasmobranch, the Halavi Guitarfish (Glaucostegus halavi), in the Red Sea [PDF]
The Halavi guitarfish (Glaucostegus halavi) is a Critically Endangered but poorly studied batoid found in the northwestern Indian Ocean. Its trophic ecology, both as predator and prey, remains largely undescribed.

This paper introduces a new metaheuristic algorithm named the Osprey Optimization Algorithm (OOA), which imitates the behavior of osprey in nature. The fundamental inspiration of OOA is the strategy of ospreys when hunting fish from the seas.

Tire wear is a leading cause of accidents. Tire wear is measured either manually, or by embedding sensors in tires, or using off-tire sensors. Manual sensing is extremely tedious. Sensors embedded in tire treads are challenging to design and expensive to embed. Off-tire sensors like laser range finders are prone to debris that may settle in grooves. To

Current Status of Breeding Population of Western Osprey in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirate
Western Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) is a resident breeding species in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Osprey breed from December to March on offshore and near-shore islands and coastal sites across the country. Approximately 90% of the breeding population

On the Status of Osprey in Georgia
At present Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) is widespread and regular, but rare in small numbers passage visitor. Before the 1940’s it was a local breeder in small numbers at wetlands of the Black Sea coastlands, western part of Kolkheti Lowland and on ...

Food supplementation increases reproductive performance of ospreys in the lower Chesapeake Bay
The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC), the governing body responsible for managing fisheries on the U.S. East Coast, formally adopted the use of Ecological Reference Points (ERPs) for Atlantic menhaden, Brevoortia tyrannus.
