UAV‐Based Precision Seed Dropping for Automated Reforestation
ABSTRACT Wildfires and deforestation pose significant threats to forest ecosystems, motivating scalable methods for reforestation beyond labor‐intensive cultivation of native forest seedlings in nurseries. To enable large‐scale direct seeding of native species, this paper presents the design, analysis, and field evaluation of a UAV‐based seed‐dropping ...

ABSTRACT Flow regime alteration is among the most pervasive threats to freshwater ecosystems globally, and migratory species are particularly vulnerable to these impacts. Despite this, specific aspects of flow regimes that shape spawning migrations remain poorly understood for most threatened species.

Monitoring programs of vulnerable megafauna increasingly rely on aerial surveys from drones or planes fitted with cameras. However, automated methods are still lacking to accurately count individuals across entire surveys. Here, we leverage a tracking‐by‐detection framework to not only detect individuals but also link the resulting detections across ...

Camera trap occupancy studies often rely on simple rules of thumb that assume constant occupancy and detection across sites. Using simulations, we show that accurate occupancy estimates require 10–40 sites with no spatial variation, 20–120 with simple variation and 40–600 with complex spatial structures.

Abstract Water is essential for life, and effective hydrological management is crucial for economic stability and quality of life. Poor water resource governance can lead to scarcity, displacement, or even fatal consequences. Hydrological conditions in East Africa are influenced by drivers such as demographic expansion, industrialization, droughts, and
