Precision planter monitoring system based on mobile communication network

open access: yesIET Networks, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Sowing is an important link in agricultural production and the basis for ensuring high yields and bumper harvests. Agriculture requires precision plows with good performance and stable work. However, the seeding process is in a completely closed state, and the operator relies mainly on experience to judge the operating state and performance of

Preliminary evidence for one-trial social learning of vervet monkey alarm calling

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2022
How do non-human primates learn to use their alarm calls? Social learning is a promising candidate, but its role in the acquisition of meaning and call usage has not been studied systematically, neither during ontogeny nor in adulthood.

Considerations for designing underwater acoustical playback experiments [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1994
The continued high interest in the effects of man-made sounds on marine wildlife has resulted in increased use of playback experiments. In such experiments, the intent is often to simulate a larger more powerful source of sound, e.g., a drill ship, with a playback of a recording, but using a small portable source system such as a J-11 to play the sound

Design and implementation of geographic information system with mobile terminal and 5G network

open access: yesIET Networks, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Remote insurance mainly completes quotation, insurance application and payment through the PC terminal and mobile terminal, and the premium directly enters the insurance account. This article takes remote insurance as an example. First, it analyses the requirements of the remote insurance and insurance system, and then collects data from the ...

Alarm Calling in Plateau Pika (Ochotona curzoniae): Evidence from Field Observations and Simulated Predator and Playback Experiments

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Acoustic communication plays a vital role in passing or sharing information between individuals. Identifying the biological meaning of vocal signals is crucial in understanding the survival strategies of animals.

Two novel vocalizations are used by veeries (Catharus fuscescens) during agonistic interactions.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Avian vocalizations are common examples of the complex signals used by animals to negotiate during agonistic interactions. In this study, we used two playback experiments to identify agonistic signals in a songbird species with several acoustically ...

Food Calls in Common Marmosets, Callithrix jacchus, and Evidence That One Is Functionally Referential

open access: yesAnimals, 2018
We studied three calls of common marmosets, Callithrix jacchus, elicited in the context of food. Call A, but not B or C, had been described previously as a food call. We presented insects (live mealworms or crickets) and fruit (banana or blueberries) and

Structural-functional characteristics of two song types in Phylloscopus humei (Phylloscopidae)

open access: yesNature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2023
Several songbird species use two singing modes, which are functionally different. The first mode is preferentially used at the beginning of the breeding cycle, and serves to attract females, while the second mode is used later in the season as well as ...

Social Disruption Impairs Predatory Threat Assessment in African Elephants

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
The transmission of reliable information between individuals is crucial for group-living animals. This is particularly the case for cognitively advanced mammals with overlapping generations that acquire detailed social and ecological knowledge over long ...

Directional speakers as a tool for animal vocal communication studies

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Audio playbacks are a common experimental tool in vocal communication research. However, low directionality of sound makes it hard to control the audience exposed to the stimuli.
