Bumblebee consumption bioassay
Laboratory feeding trials exposing individual bumblebee workers to alkaloid-enriched sucrose solutions followed by behavioral activity scoring to assess direct consumptive effects of nectar alkaloids.
Colony fragmentation and diet manipulation of Formica podzolica (Formicidae)
Wild ant colonies were collected and split into paired fragments, then maintained on controlled diets (carbohydrate vs protein-rich) to test effects of macronutrient balance on behavior. Colony fragme...
FLIR thermal imaging of alpine patterned ground
Forward Looking Infrared thermal photography combined with machine learning data sculpture techniques to visualize temperature patterns in periglacial environments
camera trapping
Motion-activated camera deployment to detect and monitor presence of snow leopards and other wildlife in remote mountain environments.
individual-based rarefaction
Statistical method to compare species richness across samples with different sampling efforts by generating rarefaction curves. Uses individual-based approach to generate rate of visitor richness accu...
Transient LTRE analysis
Analysis method that reveals demographic and trait mediated processes that buffer population growth using transient life table response experiments.
