On the spatial clustering of behavioural phenotypes: matching movement tactics with landscape structure in a large herbivore

Oikos, EarlyView.
In the wild, individuals consistently differ in movement and space use behaviours, depending on their personality. This variation can lead to personality–habitat associations and spatial structuring, potentially generating individual niche segregation.

Superimposed Sacrificial Texturing to Enhance the Optical Performance in Thin‐Film Solar Cells

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, EarlyView.
Sacrificial texturing method using controlled etching of undoped zinc oxide and indium‐doped tin oxide generates microscale and nanoscale textures on glass. Roughness on two different scales is superimposed to create a new texture capable of broad‐spectrum scattering, which is utilised in thin‐film silicon solar cells to enhance optical performance ...

Capacity building needed to reap the benefits of access to biodiversity collections

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Global conservation efforts increasingly depend on digitised natural history collections, yet the benefits of this digital data are not equally shared. We analysed biodiversity specimens and citation data from Montserrat and the Cayman Islands to assess who collected these specimens, how they are used, and by whom.

Exploring New Chemical Paths in Quantum AI: Preliminary Accomplishments and Future Perspectives

Advanced Quantum Technologies, EarlyView.
Two new strategies derived from Chemical AI to promote the advancement of sustainable quantum technologies are presented and discussed. The first strategy relies on the chemical implementation of molecular fuzzy sets, which are quantum mixed states associated with chemical microheterogeneous systems. The second strategy relies on photochromic compounds

DuckNet: an open‐source deep learning tool for waterfowl species identification in UAV imagery

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Using drones with thermal‐RGB sensors and a deep learning model (RetinaNet with ResNet‐50), we surveyed non‐breeding waterfowl across restored wetlands in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley. Our model, DuckNet, achieved high accuracy and offers an open‐source, customizable tool for automated waterfowl detection to support conservation monitoring ...

Investigating boreal forest successional stages in Alaska and Northwest Canada using UAV‐LiDAR and RGB and a community detection network

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study develops a novel application of UAV‐LiDAR and Red Green Blue (RGB) data and network analysis to enhance our understanding of boreal forest succession. The results indicate that tree height and spectral variables are the most influential predictors of plant functional type in random forest algorithms, and high overall accuracies were attained.

On the compatibility of single‐scan terrestrial LiDAR with digital photogrammetry and field inventory metrics of vegetation structure in forest and agroforestry landscapes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
The single‐scan approach to terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and the self‐terrain‐normalized form of drone‐based digital aerial photogrammetry (DAP) offer practical options for rapid assessment of the vegetation structure in tropical landscapes.

History of visual systems in the Systems Engineering Simulator [PDF]

The Systems Engineering Simulator (SES) houses a variety of real-time computer generated visual systems. The earliest machine dates from the mid-1960's and is one of the first real-time graphics systems in the world.

Extensile Active Hydrogels Driven by Living FtsZ Polymers

Small, EarlyView.
Upon post‐gelation activation with Mg2⁺/GTP, living FtsZ polymers treadmill inside a polyacrylamide network, generating extensile internal stresses that drive isotropic swelling and softening. Interpreting mechanics against a Flory–Rehner swelling baseline separates passive dilution from genuine activity, revealing an FR‐normalized permittivity that ...
