Hunting motivations, behaviour and forest access: Characterising wildlife hunting practices in a multi‐ethnic, forested landscape of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Unsustainable hunting practices can alter population dynamics, driving biodiversity declines, which leads to ‘empty forests’. Understanding hunting behaviour, including motivations for hunting and relationships with market drivers, and access to hunting grounds are important to develop affirmative policies to stem biodiversity loss.

Epistemic and aleatoric uncertainty quantification in weather and climate models

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties over time on weather and climate time‐scales, estimated through ensembles that sample aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty using Bayesian neural networks for parameterisations in the Lorenz 1996 model. The spread shows the 16th and 84th percentiles.

How Does Our Degrading System Perform?

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We discuss the quality of performance of degrading systems when degradation is modeled by a stochastic process with independent increments and increasing sample paths. As an example, the gamma process is considered. First, for the continuously observed degradation, by comparing with the black‐box scenario (without observing degradation), the ...

Control Systems Design With Enlarged Stability Domains for Nonlinear Constrained Systems via Sum‐of‐Squares Optimization

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Designing safe control laws for nonlinear systems is challenging, especially when ensuring stability under actuator saturation and state constraints. A key aspect is embedding controllers with a Region of Attraction (ROA), which defines initial conditions guaranteeing convergence to a stable equilibrium point (EP).

Nonlinear Receding‐Horizon Differential Game for Drone Racing Along a Three‐Dimensional Path

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drone racing requires high‐speed navigation through three‐dimensional paths, posing significant challenges in control engineering. Existing control methods lack a feedback control framework that simultaneously addresses nonlinear drone dynamics and multi‐agent competitive interactions, such as overtaking or obstructing opponents.

Reducing Trade‐Offs of Net Zero Carbon Transitions Through Entrepreneurship and Coordinated Innovation: A Spatially Disaggregated Analysis Across Countries and World Regions

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transition processes towards a sustainable future benefit from historic perspectives, since feasible changes of socio‐technological conditions and processes depend on a holistic assessment of how actors are embedded in existing institutions, routines, and structures. Building on the Income–Population–Affluence–Technology equation and utilizing
