Stay close, but not too close: aerial image analysis reveals patterns of social distancing in seal colonies
Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger
Many species aggregate in dense colonies. Species-specific spatial patterns provide clues about how colonies are shaped by various (a)biotic factors, including predation, temperature regulation or disease transmission. Using aerial imagery, we examined the ...
2023Metabolic influence of core ciliates within the rumen microbiome
Protozoa comprise a major fraction of the microbial biomass in the rumen microbiome, of which the entodiniomorphs (order: Entodiniomorphida) and holotrichs (order: Vestibuliferida) are consistently observed to be dominant across a diverse genetic and geogr ...
2023How to Swoop and Grasp Like a Bird With a Passive Claw for a High-Speed Grasping
Dario Floreano, William John Stewart, Enrico Ajanic, Matthias Müller
There is a growing interest in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) grasping, perching, and interacting with their surroundings by means of claws, arms, hooks, and other appendages. While multirotor vehicles can slowly lower onto a target object and grasp it, w ...
2022Seek and learn: Automated identification of microevents in animal behaviour using envelopes of acceleration data and machine learning
Kamiar Aminian, Hooman Dejnabadi, Pritish Chakravarty
Animal‐borne accelerometers have been used across more than 120 species to infer biologically significant information such as energy expenditure and broad behavioural categories. While the accelerometer’s high sensitivity to movement and fast response time ...
