Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Collaborative operation of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) can effectively achieve scientific goals that are hard to achieve by independently operated vehicles. Some science payloads are large, expensive, and need to be installed in the vehicle's nose cone. A vehicle can only carry one such payload.

Biodiversity research requires more motors in air, water and on land
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract Human activities have accelerated species extinctions, driving rapid biodiversity decline. Simultaneously, advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and autonomous systems offer transformative potential for biodiversity research. Uncrewed vehicles—drones (aerial systems) and other robots (ground and underwater platforms)—equipped with high ...

Phantasmic Encounters in the Arctic: Haunting Materialities Beyond the Ghosts of War
Anthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the vast north, ghostly experiences are common for locals and outsiders alike. Here, we explore how cultural‐natural attributes, like remoteness and extreme seasonal variation, compound experiences of the haunting in visceral ways. This provides the Arctic region with an unusually pronounced baseline of other‐than‐human agency, which in the
