  1. 1. Estimating historic ranges of extinct scavenging birds from North America during the late Pleistocene using co-occurrence data from the fossil record

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Melissa Miranda; [2023-06-30]
    Keywords : Scavenging birds; Vultures; Co-occurrence Data; Range Estimates; Spatial Autoregressive Models; Co-extinction;

    Abstract : The aim of my study was to estimate and compare the historic range of nine scavenging birds from North America that went jointly extinct with their mammalian megafaunal prey in the Late Pleistocene. Although the severity and timing of their co-extinction are strongly correlated, there has been little analytical support in providing estimates for the possible geographic distribution of scavenging birds prior to the extinction event.

  2. 2. Implementations and evaluation of machine learning algorithms on a microcontroller unit for myoelectric prosthesis control

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Jonathan Benitez; [2023]
    Keywords : microcontroller; deep learning; artificial neural network; electromyography; myoelectric prosthesis; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Using a microcontroller unit to implement different machine learning algorithms for myoelectric prosthesis control is currently feasible. Still there are hardware and timing constraints that need to be accounted for. READ MORE

  3. 3. RF Compressor (SLED) Phase-Modulation to Reduce Peak Fields in the MAX IV Linear Accelerator

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Joel Ekström; [2023]
    Keywords : Accelerator; MAX IV; LINAC; Phase-modulation; SLED; Pulse compression; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Modern particle accelerators need strong electric fields in order to produce high energy particles. Such high voltages are typically reached by injecting pulsed radio frequency power through several steps of amplification. At the end, pulse compression is used to further improve the energy gain at the cost of pulse-length. READ MORE

  4. 4. Snow cover related camouflage mismatch decreases survival

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Author : Pieter Otte; [2022]
    Keywords : climate change; snow cover; seasonal colour coat; crypsis; mismatch; camera trap; survival analysis;

    Abstract : Climate change is expected to decrease winter severity at high latitudes, resulting in reduced days of snow cover. Several mammalian and avian species in the northern hemisphere express a seasonal colour coat (SCC) making them white in winter periods and brown or dark in summer. READ MORE

  5. 5. Maternal behaviour of the snow leopard (Panthera uncia) : Den use, post-denning behaviour, position success rate, home range size and daily movement

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Olivia Pålsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Cub development; daily movement; den; den use; denning behaviours; home range size; Panthera uncia; position success rate; post-denning; reproductive behaviours; snow leopard;

    Abstract : Knowledge about a species’ reproductive parameters such as breeding behaviours is a vital building block for essential conservation actions, especially for endangered species. Despite this, there is a considerable knowledge gap about the snow leopard (Panthera uncia) maternal behaviours, as well as the timing of den independence for the cubs. READ MORE
