Locating nests of endangered bumble bees: Lessons from field trials in northern Germany

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 268-279, March 2026.
Tracking bumble bees to find their nests using coloured strips of paper stuck to their thorax proved to be the most suitable method, while radio transponders were too heavy. Tracking times of up to 2 h and distances of up to 800 m were achieved with strips of pink craft tissue paper.

A blacktip's black tip: The reliability of using dorsal‐fin patterns for photo identification of blacktip reef sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus)

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 1224-1236, October 2025.
Abstract Photo identification (photo ID) has increasingly become a valuable technique serving not only to identify individual animals but also to monitor populations, track migration patterns and assess wildlife health, among others uses. Various species of sharks are amenable to photo ID, among which the blacktip reef shark (Carcharhinus melanopterus)

Enhancing entomophilous pollination for sustainable crop production

The Plant Journal, Volume 122, Issue 4, May 2025.
SUMMARY Successful fertilization of insect‐pollinated crops hinges on a delicate interplay of olfactory and visual signals of pollinator attraction, the chemical complexity of nectar and pollen rewards, and the physical interaction between insects and flower anatomy for efficient pollen transfer.

The phase-switched screen [PDF]

, 2004
Conventional (passive) radar-absorbent materials operate either by phase cancellation or by absorbing incident electromagnetic energy and converting it into heat. This paper examines a new type of active "absorber," called the phase-switched screen (PSS).

Gravity and Radio Science Investigation at the Moons of Uranus to Reveal Subsurface Oceans and Characterize Interior Structures

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The prospect that the five major moons of Uranus could host subsurface oceans makes them high‐priority targets for future exploration. Different techniques can be used to search for deep oceans in these objects. Here, we focus on ocean detection and characterization from measurements of the moons' response to the gravitational tides and ...
