Environmental DNA Reveals Diverse and Depth‐Stratified Biodiversity in East Indian Ocean Submarine Canyons

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Environmental DNA metabarcoding reveals diverse animal communities across Cape Range and Cloates submarine canyons off Western Australia. Two assays detected 234 species spanning 125 families across 11 phyla, highlighting canyon‐specific assemblages and demonstrating the value of eDNA for establishing biodiversity baselines in remote and poorly ...

Quasi Opposition–Based Learning With Artificial Rabbit Optimization for Feature Selection of Breast Cancer

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2026.
Workflow of proposed QOBL‐ARO with GS‐SVM method for BC using mammogram images. ABSTRACT Mammogram images are the most appropriate modality for breast cancer (BC) diagnosis which supports early diagnosis in women. However, the handcrafted features are insufficient for effective BC classification, which negatively impacts the model's accuracy and leads ...

Friction Shock Absorbers and Reverse Thrust for Fast Multirotor Landing on High‐Speed Vehicles

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 1068-1090, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Typical landing gears of small uninhabited aerial vehicles (UAV) limit their capability to land on vehicles moving at more than 20–50 km/h due to high drag forces, high pitch angles and potentially high relative horizontal velocities. To enable landing at higher speeds, a combination of lightweight friction shock absorbers and reverse thrust ...

Path Planning of UAV Using Levy Pelican Optimization Algorithm In Mountain Environment

Applied Artificial Intelligence
To overcome the issues of simple strategy and easy fall into local optimum when solving UAV 3D path planning problem, we propose an improved Levy Pelican Optimization Algorithm (LPOA) that incorporates the hunter-prey algorithm and solves the UAV 3D path

Complex numerical modeling of dynamics and crashes of wing-in-ground vehicles [PDF]

, 1993
The Wing-In-Ground craft (WIG), a vehicle flying in the ground effect, is a promising transportation means of the near future. This paper describes mathematical modeling of WIG motion in all regimes, such as planing, take-off, transition to flight ...

X‐ray computed tomography study of terrestrial analog cores in preparation for Mars sample return

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 405-426, March 2026.
Abstract Mars Sample Return (MSR) is expected to transform planetary science by providing unprecedented access to pristine Martian material. Initial characterization in the sample receiving facility (SRF) will rely on nondestructive techniques such as X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to document the condition, distribution, and internal features of ...

Evolution and Climate Adaptation in Eurasian Gyrfalcon Populations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This reports the influence of past, current and future Arctic climate change to the evolution of Eurasian gyrfalcons (Falco rusticolus), and reveals that its current evolutionary potential is insufficient to cope with the ongoing Arctic warming. ABSTRACT Climate change is considered a key driver for shaping ecological and evolutionary processes of ...

A theoretical model of flock formation to understand trade‐offs between cooperation and competition

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Migratory birds often form flocks during spring migration and compete for territories once they arrive at breeding sites. Understanding the emergence and structure of these flocks has important implications for avian ecology and conservation, as flocking can influence migration success, resource distribution, and population resilience. In this

Emergence, spread, and impact of high‐pathogenicity avian influenza H5 in wild birds and mammals of South America and Antarctica

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract The currently circulating high‐pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) virus of the subtype H5 causes variable illness and death in wild and domestic birds and mammals, as well as in humans. This virus evolved from the Goose/Guangdong lineage of the HPAI H5 virus, which emerged in commercial poultry in China in 1996, spilled over into wild birds,
