  1. 1. Eyes in the nest : breeding phenology of Golden Eagles characterized using remote cameras

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

    Author : Richard Larsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Golden eagle; breeding; Aquila chrysaetos; camera trap; phenology; Sweden;

    Abstract : In situ monitoring of raptor breeding ecology with field personnel is costly, difficult and demanding. Installing camera traps in raptor nests can provide researchers with diverse information and long-term monitoring. Furthermore, it allows for relatively cheap data collection. READ MORE

  3. 2. Movement ecology of Golden eagles(Aquila crysaetos) and risks associated with wind farm development

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

    Author : Rebecka Hedfors; [2014]
    Keywords : Golden eagle; wind farm; movement ecology; flight height; Aquila crysaetos;

    Abstract : Renewable energy sources like wind energy are rapidly expanding in order to meet challenges of climate change. Wind energy is leaving a significant negative impact on wildlife through collision of birds and bats with operating wind turbines. Raptors are one of the many species exposed to this threat.

  4. 3. Raptor Codes for Super-Dense Networks

    University essay from KTH/Signalbehandling

    Author : Émilie Baudin; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this project, we investigate the performance of Raptor codes as candidatesfor channel coding for the wireless communication between access nodes.Very high data-rates are used, and processing uses more resources than transmission.Therefore, we need fast encoding and decoding algorithms for thechannel coding.

  5. 4. File-Based Delivery over LTE-Based MBMS

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Sektionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Ravichandran Sivawamy; Geethanjali Soundappan; [2013]
    Keywords : RaptorQ; Raptor; AL-FEC; MBMS; FLUTE;

    Abstract : One of the most important emerging aspects of Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is the Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS) aiming to deliver multimedia contents to mobile users more efficiently in point-to-multipoint way. 3GPP also recommends an Application Layer Forward Error Correction (AL-FEC) scheme, especially for MBMS, in order to provide reliable transmission over mobile networks.

  6. 5. Weather induced variations in raptor migration : a study of raptor migration during one autumn season in Kazbegi, Georgia, 2010

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Michael Tholin; [2011]
    Keywords : Kazbegi; migrating raptors; weather; thermal updrafts; flight strategies; sträckande rovfåglar; väder; termik; flyktstrategier; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Raptors migrate by using either soaring and gliding flight or a combination of gliding and powered flight. The energy consumption when using powered flight increases rapidly with body mass and is therefore mainly used by the smaller raptors, such as Falcons, Sparrowhawks and Harriers. READ MORE
