Remote sensing has revolutionised many aspects of ecological research, enabling
spatiotemporal data to be collected in an efficient and highly automated manner. The last …

For radar aeroecology studies, the identification of the type of scatterer is critically important.
Here, we used a random forest (RF) algorithm to develop a variety of scatterer classification …

This book (10 chapters) covers radar entomology and its application in the study and
monitoring of insect flight and migration. Chapter 1 provides a general introduction to both …

Many migratory species have experienced substantial declines that resulted from rapid and
massive expansions of human structures and activities, habitat alterations and climate …

The upgrade of the national network of next‐generation weather surveillance radars
(NEXRAD) in the United States to dual polarizations has been completed, providing three …

Migratory animals provide a multitude of services and disservices—with benefits or costs in
the order of billions of dollars annually. Monitoring, quantifying, and forecasting migrations …

Weather surveillance radars are increasingly used for monitoring the movements and
abundances of animals in the airspace. However, analysis of weather radar data remains a …

Insects account for a large portion of Earth's biodiversity and are key players for ecosystems,
notably as pollinators. While insect migration is suspected to represent a natural …

Billions of organisms travel through the air, influencing population dynamics, community
interactions, ecosystem services and our lives in many different ways. Yet monitoring these …

Interest in forecasting impacts of climate change have heightened attention in recent
decades to how animals respond to variation in climate and weather patterns. One difficulty …
