When aerial surveys won’t do:Grey seal pup production in cryptic habitats of Wales [PDF]

, 2014
Grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) are a species of conservation importance that require Marine Protected Area management and population status assessment under the EU Habitats and Species Directive. Aerial surveys are commonly used to monitor grey seal pup

SEALS AND SEALINGS

The glyptic assemblage from the Neo-Assyrian well in area C includes eight finds, three from the second to last layer, four from the one above it and one from a middle layer. These pieces from various filling layers of the shaft were retrieved at different elevations, having been thrown away at the time when the Babylonians in 605 BCE put an end to the

PORTING ARDUPILOT TO ESP32: TOWARDS A UNIVERSAL OPEN-SOURCE ARCHITECTURE FOR AGILE AND EASILY REPLICABLE MULTI-DOMAINS MAPPING ROBOTS [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
In this article, we are interested in the implementation of an open-source low-level architecture (critical system) adapted to agile and easily replicable close-range remote sensing robots operating in multiple evolution domains.

SEAL: Sealed-Bid Auction Without Auctioneers [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, 2020
We propose the first auctioneer-free sealed-bid auction protocol with a linear computation and communication complexity O(c), c being the bit length of the bid price. Our protocol, called Self-Enforcing Auction Lot (SEAL), operates in a decentralized setting, where bidders jointly compute the maximum bid while preserving the privacy of losing bids.

Mitigating the Effects of Maternal Loss on Harbour Seal Pups in Captive Care

Animals
Stranded newborn “orphan” harbour seal pups entering captive care are often maintained for some weeks in isolation, mainly as a precaution against the spread of infection. However, this practice raises concerns for the welfare and normal socialisation of

Cracking and Toughening Mechanisms in Nanoscale Metallic Multilayer Films: A Brief Review

Applied Sciences, 2018
Nanoscale metallic multilayer films (NMMFs) have captured scientific interests on their mechanical responses. Compared with the properties of monolithic films, multilayers possess unique high strength as the individual layer thickness reduces to the ...

Identifying the high entropy effect on plastic dynamics in bulk metallic glasses: A nanoindentation study at room and elevated temperatures

Materials & Design, 2020
In this study, the spatiotemporal dynamic analyses of intermittent plastic flow in the nanoindentation of different Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs), at various temperatures, were carefully performed to provide insight into the amorphous structural-property ...
