Detecting animals in African Savanna with UAVs and the crowds [PDF]
arXiv.org, 2017 Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offer new opportunities for wildlife monitoring, with several advantages over traditional field-based methods. They have readily been used to count birds, marine mammals and large herbivores in different environments ...

Pattern Formation in Mesic Savannas
Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2023 AbstractWe analyze a spatially extended version of a well-known model of forest-savanna dynamics, which presents as a system of nonlinear partial integro-differential equations, and study necessary conditions for pattern-forming bifurcations. Homogeneous solutions dominate the dynamics of the standard forest-savanna model, regardless of the length ...
