TRANSLATIONAL SCIENCE EDUCATION THROUGH CITIZEN SCIENCE

Translational Science Education Through Citizen Science

Guided by the six elements of Translational Ecology (TE; i.e., decision-framing, collaboration, engagement, commitment, process, and communication), we showcase the first explicit example of a Translational Science Education (TSE) effort in the coastal redwood ecosystem of Humboldt County, CA.Using iNaturalist, a flexible and free citizen science/c

Quantification of species composition in grass-clover swards using RGB and multispectral UAV imagery and machine learning

IntroductionGrowing grass-legume mixtures for forage production improves both yield productivity and nutritional quality, while also benefiting the environment by promoting species biodiversity and enhancing soil fertility (through nitrogen fixation).Consequently, assessing legume proportions in grass-legume mixed swards is essential for breeding a

Jaya Algorithm With Self-Adaptive Multi-Population and Lévy Flights for Solving Economic Load Dispatch Problems

In this paper, a recently proposed Jaya algorithm is implemented on the economic load dispatch problems (ELDPs).Different from most of the other meta-heuristics, Jaya algorithm needs no algorithm-specific parameters, and only two common parameters are required for effective execution, which makes the implementation simple and effective.Simultaneous
