Coastal marine mammal conservation using thermal imaging-based detection systems

This study evaluates the effectiveness of thermal imaging systems for detecting smaller marine mammals, specifically killer whales in the Salish Sea.

Remote sensing of emperor penguin abundance and breeding success

This paper develops a phenological model to predict emperor penguin breeding pairs and chicks from sparse satellite data, improving population monitoring in remote areas.

RFIDeep: Unfolding the Potential of Deep Learning forRadio-Frequency Identification

RFIDeep uses deep learning to analyze RFID mark-recapture data and accurately determine breeding status, phenology, and success in seabirds.

Effectiveness of surface-based North Atlantic right whale detection methods for vessel strike mitigation

This study evaluates surface-based detection methods for reducing vessel strikes on North Atlantic right whales using an agent-based model, finding that effectiveness depends on vessel speed and combining with speed restrictions improves outcomes.

Biologging of emperor penguins - attachment techniques and associated deployment performance

This paper evaluates biologging techniques for emperor penguins, finding that traditional gluing methods harm birds and proposing alternative attachment methods with better deployment success.

Juvenile emperor penguin range calls for extended conservation measures in the Southern Ocean

The paper shows that juvenile emperor penguins spend most of their time outside current marine protected areas, highlighting the need for expanded conservation measures.
