Spotting East African Mammals in Open Savannah from Space
Knowledge of population dynamics is essential for managing and conserving wildlife. Traditional methods of counting wild animals such as aerial survey or ground counts not only disturb animals, but also can be labour intensive and costly. New, commercially available very high-resolution satellite images offer great potential for accurate estimates of animal abundance over large open areas. Howe...
متن کاملCorrection: Otoliths of Five Extant Species of the Annual Killifish Nothobranchius from the East African Savannah

متن کاملThe effect of proportional of open space to semi-open space in better use of climatic conditions in houses in coastal and foothill areas of East Gilan
Having a mild and humid climate, Gilan province is closer to the comfort zone than other regions of Iran. In addition, the use of radiation, wind, precipitation and humidity components in the spatial organization of native houses has led to the formation of a semi-open space next to the closed space. In general, the placement of spaces in this climate is such that there is no clear border betwe...

متن کاملDrivers of Intensity and Prevalence of Flea Parasitism on Small Mammals in East African Savanna Ecosystems.
The relative importance of environmental factors and host factors in explaining variation in prevalence and intensity of flea parasitism in small mammal communities is poorly established. We examined these relationships in an East African savanna landscape, considering multiple host levels: across individuals within a local population, across populations within species, and across species withi...
