Visual and camera trap survey of small mammals
Combined direct visual observation during peak activity periods with motion-activated camera bucket traps to determine species presence/absence in meadow habitats. Camera traps used small entry holes ...
mark-recapture (Cricetidae)
Standard live-trapping protocol using Longworth traps in grid arrays for mark-recapture population estimation of small mammals with individual marking and release.
camera trap survey
Camera traps deployed along trails in a stratified random design to detect wildlife presence and estimate occupancy while accounting for detection probability. Cameras moved weekly within zones to sam...
ENSBox collaborative acoustic localization
A distributed wireless sensor network approach using tetrahedral microphone arrays to detect and localize animal vocalizations through collaborative Direction of Arrival estimation and Maximum Likelih...
Approximated Maximum Likelihood algorithm (Sciuridae)
Uses array of wireless acoustic sensors with correlation envelope sum (CES) method to precisely locate sources of marmot alarm calls in field settings. Employs cross-correlation analysis and multilate...
Controlled acoustic playback validation
Systematic playback of pre-recorded animal vocalizations from known positions and orientations to validate localization algorithm performance under controlled field conditions.
VoxNet distributed acoustic sensing platform deployment (Sciuridae)
Deployment and operation of networked embedded sensor nodes for distributed acoustic monitoring using custom hardware and WaveScript programming language. Enables real-time processing and localization...
