Development and Evaluation of a Low‐Cost, Semi‐Automated Camera Trap for Surveying Bumble Bee Communities

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera traps are emerging as a useful tool for noninvasive insect monitoring; however, it remains unclear how to lure diurnal insects to traps, how to detect them upon arrival, and how camera‐based methods compare to conventional sampling. We developed a low‐cost, open‐source camera trap to monitor wild bumble bees in agricultural fields. We found that

Citizen Science for Individual Identification of Pine Martens Martes martes From Camera Trap Footage

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera traps generate large volumes of wildlife footage, but identifying animals to the individual level remains challenging and time‐consuming. Using European pine martens in the Forest of Dean as a case study, we assessed whether citizen scientists could identify individuals from camera trap photos and videos.

Efficient and Accurate Spatio‐Temporal Population Monitoring of Mobile Animals Using Drones and Computer Vision

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Drones and computer vision offer an efficient way to estimate animal populations over localized areas, but surveys often require stitching many overlapping images together. If animals move during the survey, traditional orthomosaic‐based counting methods become unreliable, with some animals appearing in multiple locations while others appear not at all,

Few Annotations, High Accuracy: Transfer Learning and Data Augmentation Improve Passive Acoustic Monitoring of the Vulnerable African Manatee

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Can deep learning reliably detect a threatened species in passive acoustic monitoring with few annotations? Across 52 sites and 600 recording days, we compared two deep learning recognizers with the traditional machine learning Kaleidoscope for detecting African manatee vocalizations.

Estimating IPv4 address space usage with capture-recapture

open access: yes, 2013
As of April 2013 almost 95% of the IPv4 address space has been allocated. Yet, the transition to IPv6 is still relatively slow. One reason could be existing 'IPv4 reserves'---allocated but unused IPv4 addresses.

Who Can Afford to Fail? Investigating Science Students' Perceptions of Failure Through the Lens of Their Identities

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Scientists agree that learning to cope with failures is an important skill for science students to develop, and students who participate in science research often have positive outcomes after coping with science failures. However, the experience of failure in undergraduate science education more broadly seems to have an overall negative impact
