Bat flight: aerodynamics, kinematics and flight morphology.
Bats evolved the ability of powered flight more than 50 million years ago. The modern bat is an efficient flyer and recent research on bat flight has revealed many intriguing facts. By using particle image velocimetry to visualize wake vortices, both the magnitude and time-history of aerodynamic forces can be estimated. At most speeds the downstroke generates both lift and thrust, whereas the f...
متن کاملCon ict Probability Estimation For Free Flight
The safety and e ciency of free ight will bene t from automated con ict prediction and resolution advisories. Con ict prediction is based on trajectory prediction and is less certain the farther in advance the prediction, however. An estimate is therefore needed of the probability that a con ict will occur, given a pair of predicted trajectories and their levels of uncertainty. This paper prese...
متن کاملSpatial and Temporal Variation in Detection Probability of Plethodon Salamanders Using the Robust Capture–recapture Design
Recent worldwide amphibian declines have highlighted a need for long-term, large-scale monitoring programs. Scientific or management objectives, appropriate spatial sampling, and detectability all must be considered when designing monitoring programs (Yoccoz et al. 2001). The ability to establish meaningful monitoring programs currently is compromised by a lack of information about amphibian de...
متن کاملProbability distributions for measures of placental shape and morphology.
Birthweight at delivery is a standard cumulative measure of placental growth, but is a crude summary of other placental characteristics, such as, e.g., the chorionic plate size, and the shape and position of the umbilical cord insertion. Distributions of such measures across a cohort reveal information about the developmental history of the chorionic plate which is unavailable from an analysis ...
متن کاملEstimating Detection Probability Parameters for Plethodon Salamanders Using the Robust Capture–recapture Design
Recent concern over global amphibian population declines has highlighted a need for more extensive, rigorous monitoring programs. Two sources of variation, spatial variation and variation in detection probability, make the design and implementation of effective monitoring programs difficult. We used Pollock’s robust design in a 3-year capture–recapture study to estimate detection probability an...
