Breaking Concentration Quenching for Excellent Highly Efficient and Stable Narrowband Luminescence by Structural Ordering and Defect Regulation

Rare Metals, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Enhancing the performance of phosphor materials for wide‐color‐gamut and high‐brightness phosphor‐converted light‐emitting diodes (pc‐LEDs) represents a critical materials challenge. Improving quantum efficiency (QE) under concentration quenching constraints and maintaining thermal stability remain primary objectives.

Ground beetle dispersal: how to bridge the scales? [PDF]

, 2010
Beneficial arthropods that provide biological control of aphids or weed seeds use a variety of habitats in agricultural landscapes. Information on the movement behaviour of these arthropods between these habitats is needed to develop conservation ...

Tourist sightings improve the precision of camera trap‐derived density estimates using spatial capture‐recapture models

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
In this study, we combine tourist‐contributed images with camera trap‐based monitoring data to estimate leopard (Panthera pardus) population densities using multi‐session spatial capture–recapture models. We show that incorporating tourist observations improves precision and yields an overall density estimate of 7.02 leopards per 100 km2, while ...

Application of network theory to mark recapture data allows insights into population structure of two Heliconius species [PDF]

Network Biology, 2015
By noting the spatial location of captured individuals mark-recapture studies create a collection of discrete events spread in space and time. This setup is appropriate for network modeling where the vertices (or nodes) are the points of capture and ...

Assessing group size and the demographic composition of a canopy‐dwelling primate, the northern muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus), using arboreal camera trapping and genetic tagging

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We combined arboreal camera trapping and non‐invasive genetic tagging to estimate group size in the critically endangered northern muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus) in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Both methods provided complementary insights into group size and demographic structure, while differing in their cost‐effectiveness and sampling constraints ...

Exploring patterns of female house mouse spatial organisation among outbreaking and stable populations

Ecology and Evolution
The size and distribution of home ranges reflect how individuals within a population use, defend, and share space and resources, and may thus be an important predictor of population‐level dynamics.

Programmed unmanned aerial vehicles show great potential for monitoring marine megafauna in specific areas of interest

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...

Contrasting abundance and residency patterns of two sympatric populations of transient killer whales (Orcinus orca) in the northern Gulf of Alaska [PDF]

, 2012
Two sympatric populations of “transient” (mammal-eating) killer whales were photo-identified over 27 years (1984–2010) in Prince William Sound and Kenai Fjords, coastal waters of the northern Gulf of Alaska (GOA).

Embedding Population Dynamics Models in Inference

, 2007
Increasing pressures on the environment are generating an ever-increasing need to manage animal and plant populations sustainably, and to protect and rebuild endangered populations.
