How Passive Acoustic and Traditional Monitoring Estimate Bird Diversity Across Habitats
We compared traditional bird counts (PC) with passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) in a heterogeneous Alpine landscape. PAM recorded twice as many species, with a strong correlation between species richness and the bird counts (rs = 0.71); however, there were significant differences depending on habitat type.

Energy Poverty and Climate Shocks: Are Changing Weather Patterns Leaving South Africa in the Dark?
ABSTRACT Energy and climate change are deeply interlinked, with the latter exerting significant influence on energy demand and supply. In regions such as South Africa, where socio‐economic vulnerability is high, understanding how climate change affects energy poverty is essential to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 7 ...

ABSTRACT Risk management has evolved to analyze risks in a systemic way, integrating local knowledge with the abstract concept of resilience, which is now an imperative for vulnerable and exposed communities. However, existing decision‐support tools are mainly focused on technical‐functional aspects and, although based on rigorous and scientific ...

ABSTRACT Modern engineering faces a ‘complexity crisis’ characterized by interlinked, multidisciplinary ‘wicked problems’, particularly within the defence and aerospace sectors. Although systems thinking is recognized as a critical competency for navigating this environment, empirical quantitative frameworks for its measurement remain limited.

Abstract The acoustic emission (AE) technique has proven to be an effective method for detecting individual wire breaks in prestressed concrete structures affected by stress corrosion cracking (SCC). However, despite its widespread application, the quantitative assessment of AE monitoring reliability and optimal sensor placement remains unresolved ...
