Human impacts on the world’s raptors [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Raptors are emblematic of the global biodiversity crisis because one out of five species are threatened with extinction and over half have declining populations due to human threats. Yet our understanding of where these “threats” impact raptor species is

Relative Conservation Status of Bird Orders With Special Attention to Raptors
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Birds, especially raptors, play important roles in ecosystems. We examine the International Union for the Conservation of Nature’s (IUCN) Red List to determine which orders of birds have proportionally more or fewer species listed as threatened or ...

2011 IEEE Information Theory Workshop, 2011 In this paper, an extension of raptor codes is introduced which keeps all the desirable properties of raptor codes, including the linear complexity of encoding and decoding per information bit, unchanged. The new design, however, improves the performance in terms of the reception rate.
