Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Drones are used to monitor bird nesting sites at less accessible locations, such as on cliffs, human infrastructure, or within the tree canopy. While there are a growing number of studies documenting avian behavioral responses to various drones, there is a continued need to monitor taxa‐specific responses to different drone models. We explored both the

Study of optimisation strategies for aircraft structural design [PDF]
, 2012 Optimisation plays an important role in structural design. Structural design optimisation is not only a matter of weight reduction of the structure; it can be used to optimise any type of objectives.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To

Multidisciplinary Aircraft and Trajectory Optimization for Novel Regional Aircraft Architectures
[EN] Novel aircraft configurations, such as hybrid-electric and hydrogen-powered designs, offer strong potential to reduce dependence on conventional fuels and contribute to the decarbonization of aviation. However, their efficient design remains challenging, as conventional methods often fail to capture the complex trade-offs between performance ...

Spatiotemporal mapping the usable space of free‐roaming equids across the western United States
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.Identification of the inter‐decadal (2010‐2011) enhancement‐degradation gradients in the usable space for wild equid Herd Management Areas in the Great Basin, USA. Abstract Management of feral equids in the American West is hindered by the lack of a formal habitat map and monitoring system.
